Perhaps the use of the word "butt" can now be used more freely, and is more socially accepted, whereas 20 years ago, "buck naked" was the only term one could use without sounding coarse.

We don't want to get it right because Butt naked is funnier to say than Buck naked!

Many people in today's day and age say "butt naked" simply because it sounds more vulgar that "buck naked". Hence, they get more of a thrill out of it.

You are correct, but "butt naked" does make more sense, let the new generation change it, who cares?
