How it's used
Patpat is the colloquial term for buttocks, and using it as a descriptor creates a vivid, slightly humorous image of someone lacking curves. It is primarily used to describe a flat posterior, but can extend to describe a generally flat or uncurvaceous body shape. Because it references a body part, it can sound quite personal or rude depending on the relationship between speakers.
