Still learning how to navigate the site and trying to find things. Sometimes reply doesn't show up on my phone so if I don't respond, it might be because I can't. I keep seeing people use a term and I have to ask what it is.

It's where you have your butt sewn shut and once it heals, it looks like a Barbie doll butt. Can also be called Ken butt or GI Joe butt for the guys that are self-conscious.

In other words, it's a butt without a hole in it. AlexT is being uncharacteristically modest.

Okay, I'm not sure the pictures will be helpful, but you both were very descriptive, and I needed the laugh
