- bootyhole73%
A playful but blunt slang term for the anus. 'Bootyhole' sits at the cartoonish end of the vulgarity spectrum — it's crude but not particularly aggressive, showing up in comedy sketches, rap lyrics, and casual banter where people want to be gross without being genuinely offensive. It's a favourite in meme culture and internet humour precisely because it sounds both ridiculous and direct. Widely understood across American English, it's one of those words that makes people laugh even when they're rolling their eyes.
- booty cheeks71%
Beyond its literal meaning, 'booty cheeks' has evolved into a popular slang expression meaning something is terrible, low-quality, or just deeply embarrassing. If a film is 'booty cheeks', it's not just bad — it's painfully, laughably bad. The phrase punches with extra comic energy because of its absurdity, making it a favourite in online spaces, gaming communities, and youth slang. It's the kind of insult that makes you laugh even as it stings. Think of it as a more colourful upgrade to 'trash'.
- bubble butt66%
Slang for large, round, prominently rounded buttocks — the kind that are full, perky, and impossible to ignore. The term is widely used in American pop culture, music lyrics, and social media, and depending on context can be a compliment or a playful descriptor. While body-positive usage dominates in modern slang, it can slide into body-shaming territory if used meanly. Culturally, a bubble butt is often celebrated in hip-hop, fitness culture, and mainstream beauty standards.
- asscheek62%
A straightforward North American vulgar slang term for a single buttock — one of the two rounded fleshy parts of the posterior. Widely understood and commonly used in informal speech across all age groups, though still considered crude in formal contexts. The term appears frequently in comedy, casual conversation, and popular culture. It is notably less offensive than many other "ass-" compounds and is often used neutrally as a simple anatomical descriptor.
