It seems like every woman these days is worrying about thigh-butt. What the heck is that you ask? Apparently it's when your butt loses so much definition it looks like it's connected to your thighs. And no, I'm not just talking about a flat booty!

"It's not the same thing," Cynthia Shipley, an instructor with True Pilates told the U.K.'s DailyMail. "You have to look for definition, if the hamstrings are developed and if the buttocks is lifted." Supposedly lack of exercise and sitting on your ass all day would do it. And I'm not implying laziness. If you have a job that has you sitting in a desk chair all day and you're not making time after hours to exercise or work out you can wind up with a "thut". Ugh just the thought of it freaks me out!
When it comes to these body terms, I feel like I can't keep up. Now it's thut, last week it was "bikini bridge." Seriously, what's next? Here are some of the strangest body trend terms we've heard so far!
Bikini bridge: Women and girls all over are posting disturbing pictures of their "bikini bridge," which is basically the space between their bikini and their lower abdomen to prove their thinness.
Thigh gap: A lot of teenage girls these day have become obsessed with obtaining a "thigh gap." This refers to the clear space between two skinny thighs that don't touch. Now why would anyone want that?
Buffalo hump: This is the lump of fat that gathers behind your neck most commonly caused by weight gain. Isn't that name kind of harsh though?
Cankles: A friend of mine is always complaining about her cankles. I had no idea what this was until she told me: It's when your ankles are so thick you can distinguish them from your calves. They almost looked fused together.
Bingo wings: This is that flabby skin that hangs from your arms (between the elbow and shoulder to be more specific).
Bat wings: Is the same thing as bingo wings, just a meaner name.
Muffin top: You've most likely heard this one before. Muffin top equals the belly fat that hangs over your low-waist jeans.
Love handles: Love handles are a nicer way of referring to your chichos. I hate both terms though.
Thunder thighs: People call thick thighs thunder thighs and it's the most offensive thing ever.
Saddlebags: These are the bumps on each side of your thighs that get bigger as you gain weight. Some women have them but some don't (lucky!).
