Would this have anything to do with the typically more reserved nature that the British are known for? (Not that they all are.) I am wondering not making a statement so correct me if I'm off base here. --- I don't think you're off base to be honest - that's one of the reasons the music doesn't travel amazingly well, people here tend to find the only reaction they can adopt upon hearing "Ass'n'Titties" or "Hit it from the back" is a semi-ironic one. Either that or outright moral indignation... the music would have to successfully penetrate strip joints and other such places over here (which I believe happened in Detroit? Didn't the ghetto tech sound partly originate from DJs continually pitching the bpm upwards and upwards in strip bars?) for it to find a non-ironic and sincerely booty audience!
