How it's used
Refers specifically to the buttocks or the area around the anus, carrying a slightly crude or informal tone that makes it unsuitable for professional or formal settings. It is frequently used in idiomatic expressions to describe someone who cannot sit still, such as describing a person as having a "itchy butt" when they are fidgety or impatient.
