"Rear-ended" in AmE traditionally initially conjures up the image of an automobile accident in which one car slams into the rear of another. However, it is also not uncommon in AmE to use "rear-ended" as a sly double entendre for a particular sexual act. So, to answer your question, if your conversation was a detailed discussion of a romantic encounter and not a car accident, the person you were talking to would most likely understand your meaning if you mentioned being "rear-ended." :shock::scramble:
