Buttock cleavage
Encyclopedia : B : BU : BUT : Buttock cleavage
Buttock cleavage is minor exposure of the buttocks and the anal cleft between them, often because of low slung trousers. Historically the "coin slot" (or "builder's bum") has been associated with overweight plumbers [link] (due to their frequent working exposition, exposing the area. In fact, in some languages, like Norwegian, it's referred to as the "plumber's crack"), or sometimes unattractive overweight men in general: For an example of the latter, in "Last Exit to Springfield," an episode of the animated television series The Simpsons, one character mischieviously drops a pencil down the cleavage of the overweight character Homer Simpson. However, such cleavage has also been portrayed as attractive, in respect to slim women. In the 1999 comedy film Wild Wild West, Salma Hayek's character has a gap in the back of her clothes that reveals her cleavage, which the male characters see. Moreover, in the early 2000s it became fashionable for young women to expose their undergarments and buttocks in this way. [link] [link]
In her history of the 14th century "A Distant Mirror", Barbara Tuchman makes reference to people scandalized by butt cleavage in the mid-Medieval period in Europe.
