Is there a (non-medical) word for the border/skin fold between butt and thigh?
I have a feeling there is one.
In Italian we call it "sottochiappa"

In pole dancing terms that's the gluteal crease or gluteal fold.
Medically the gluteal fold is the buttcrack.
Gluteal fold
Edit: maybe outer-gluteal cleft if you wanted to be cute about it
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?
This is the correct answer.
Yes, this seems to be the correct one. π
This sounds like a medical term though
As opposed to the gluteal fissure, which is the ass crack.
Here I thought that was the cleftal horizon.
In German it's called Arschbackenoberschenkelabtrennfalte
Holy fuck it is for real! I thought it was a made up word lol
I'm German and I also thought you got pranked.
Well, he got pranked
It is made up ;) https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ges%C3%A4%C3%9Ffurche
"All words are made up."
"Analrinne" ist wirklich ein furchtbares Wort.
If I could imagine anything more German than a long compound word, it's a wikipedia article dedicated to exactly that thing.

I've been calling it the "U-bomb" for years
which stands for "UnderBoob Of My Butt"
This is the best name so far
My SO calls it the smile. They can't leave mine alone
Gluteus overhang?
It's called the Thutt.
Buttflaps.

Butt cleavage maybe? Undercheek?
Undercheek would be understood.
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)
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.
