Does this have a word? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
submitted 1 week ago by Krik@lemmy.dbzer0.com to c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Is there a (non-medical) word for the border/skin fold between butt and thigh?

I have a feeling there is one.

They are called "arrows". Those, in particular, are red

My SO calls it the smile. They can't leave mine alone

In Italian we call it "sottochiappa"

[-] DantesFreezer@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

In pole dancing terms that's the gluteal crease or gluteal fold.

Medically the gluteal fold is the buttcrack.

Gluteus overhang?

When they hang out of your short shorts, I have some friends that call them nuggets -- "Girl, your nuggets are hanging out"

Idk about an informal word but I call it butt crease. Probably not the medical term but it's what I call it for medical contexts (as a patient)

[-] P00ptart@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

That's what I call it as well. Got clipped by a forklift. Just a welt and a really bad scrape, but it could have been much, much worse.

[-] Dallimjp@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 days ago

It's called the Thutt.

Gluteal fold

Edit: maybe outer-gluteal cleft if you wanted to be cute about it

[-] Gladaed@feddit.org 5 points 6 days ago

This sounds like a medical term though

[-] pmk@lemmy.sdf.org 33 points 1 week ago

This is the correct answer.

[-] Krik@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 1 week ago

Yes, this seems to be the correct one. 👍

[-] smuuthbrane@sh.itjust.works 23 points 1 week ago

As opposed to the gluteal fissure, which is the ass crack.

[-] toynbee@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

Here I thought that was the cleftal horizon.

We need to make this @cheese_greater@lemmy.world's top comment of all time.

I, too, once long before OP was but a twinkle in his Father's eye, wondered this same thing

Also took Anatomy/Sports physiology class. But who's counting?

[-] jeinzi@discuss.tchncs.de 142 points 1 week ago

In German it's called Arschbackenoberschenkelabtrennfalte

[-] Fafa@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

I thought it's called bananenfalte (bananafold/wrinkle)

[-] NONE_dc@lemmy.world 66 points 1 week ago

Holy fuck it is for real! I thought it was a made up word lol

[-] HairyHarry@lemmy.world 38 points 1 week ago

I'm German and I also thought you got pranked.

[-] ReakDuck@lemmy.ml 3 points 6 days ago

Well, he got pranked

[-] ImplyingImplications@lemmy.ca 32 points 1 week ago

Hey Baby, schöner Arschbackenoberschenkelabtrennfalte!

[-] Nemo@slrpnk.net 79 points 1 week ago

I've been calling it the "U-bomb" for years

which stands for "UnderBoob Of My Butt"

[-] NONE_dc@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

This is the best name so far

Butt cleavage maybe? Undercheek?

[-] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 23 points 1 week ago

Undercheek would be understood.
