treasure or valuables that are stolen or seized, especially by pirates; or in slang, a person's buttocks.
From Dutch 'buit' (plunder) brought into English in the 1500s by sailors and traders. The pirate meaning is the original; the slang meaning developed much later in the 1900s.
The pirate word 'booty' actually comes from Dutch traders—when English sailors started using it for stolen treasure, it sounded so cool that the word stuck around for centuries!
Booty (treasure) is neutral; 'booty' (slang for buttocks) emerged as sexualized slang targeting women's bodies, reducing anatomy to objectified prize.
In treasure/pirate context: neutral. In body-reference context: use 'buttocks' or 'body' if formal; recognize that slang often carries objectification.
