young men go to nightclubs to get some gash,(A Lady's front bottom)but the word refers to the whole woman as well, not just the part.

There is a word for this type of word usage - Wheels = Car, for instance.Can anybody say what that word is?

ps. some web sites don't allow hotlinks/direct links to them,for a variety of reasons - for instance you bypass their sponsers who miss out on advertising - I am by no means an expert on this kinda stuff.
