Where does the phrase .. A BIT OF HOWS YOUR FATHER come from?
Answers:
The origin of the expression 'how's your father' can be traced back to Victorian times. In those days any man with a daughter was so protective of her virtue that he would take extraordinary measures to safeguard it. Unmarried girls would be kept within the bosom of their family as much as possible, chaperoned on excursions, and on those occasions when they were let out of bounds for social events, their fathers would often accompany them discreetly by hiding underneath their voluminous skirts ready to pounce on any man who transgressed the bounds of propriety.

It used to be considered rude to mention s*x directly. A mildly witty way of getting round the problem was to set up the context so the listener could see the rude bit coming and then interrupt oneself with a blatant change of subject; clearer if you punctuate it as it would have been said in the heyday of the expression: .a bit of . How's your Father?
