Who Loves Back Dimples?

Back dimples are the new pokey nipples. Going sans bra isn’t enough these days, ladies. Guys are apparently paying a lot of attention to the lower back now too. Just check out the photo galleries from tribe.net, the jotsheet, and item girls. Those fuckers are obsessed and I say it’s a totally healthy obsession.
Some people call them butt dimples, but that brings to mind images of cottage cheese filled meatbags. It seems like most ogling fetishists refer to them as back dimples, which is too bad, because that term is as boring as a stale loaf of bread. The official name for these little love divots is dimples of Venus. According to Wiki:
The phrase dimples of Venus refers to the pair of sagittally symmetrical indentations sometimes visible on the human lower back, just superior to the gluteal cleft. The dimples are directly superficial to the two sacroiliac joints, the sites where the sacrum attaches to the ilium of the pelvis.
In other words, they’re the two little cups that our divine creator carved out of back fat to give guys a place to deposit jizz.
Do you love back dimples? Do you have them? Do you wish you did?

Thanks, I needed another insecurity. Must check mirror for irresistably hot back dimples.
what the deuce? i’ve never seen those or heard of them before. it looks fucking creepy.
I hinestly don’t give a damn. Looks like they did surgery on her, taking out a tumour or something.
Now people are going to start piercing that area. Or having them “installed.” And no, I’ve never seen that on anybody, ever.
I wish I did. Sadly I’m too curvy.
LOL. Jizz Divits!
Wow, I have never felt so inadequate over something I’d never even heard of before. Guess I’ll go schedule some elective surgery now…
Hilarious blog you’ve got here, by the way. Might have to add you to my feed reader.
If these are the “Dimples of Venus”, are they just the reverse side of the “Mounds of Venus” showing through?
I have them. Now I feel slightly ashamed and dirty.
i just gave myself whiplash looking in the mirror for them– the verdict? no. no venus nipples or whatever the fuck they are called.
A long time ago, I saw a fashion photo where the back of a black dress formed the outline of a violin & featured those little dimples as part of the F holes. I’ve liked them ever since!
And I just ran to check my back - I don’t have them. I have a slight shadow where they could pretend to be. Must be a white girl thing!
I think those are actually just thumb impressions.
I have them and so does my 3 year old daughter. They’re not quite that pronounced, but they’re there.
LOL! Good one Diane!
I checked last night and I have them even though I’m a voluptuous (that means I shop at the Hefty Hideaway).
Never had had them. Always wished I did. LMAO @ Diane.
fuck yea I do and I have since like forever.
it’s a sign of fertility and shuriken stars…
Mist1:
No need for insecurity. I think a lot of people don’t have them. A lot of sad, unattractive people.
sarah:
I accept that they’re sort of creepy. In a super hot kinda way.
Leon:
Lower-back tumors are no laughing matter. They’re the third most common cause of death among hotties.
cinders:
You’ve never seen them on anyone? Next time you’re hanging out with friends, take a close look in the right lighting. You’ll see ‘em.
Randi:
I’m not sure being curvy has much to do with it. Check out Kitty’s comment.
MacBros:
Yes! But you’ve gotta have good aim.
nicole:
I’ve always wanted to be on your feed reader. I’ve read your site. I like your site. And I want you to like my site too. Let’s get some elective surgeries together. You get back dimples and I’ll get a full facial transplant.
Omnipotent Poobah:
Definitely. They look like two nubs on either side of the belly button.
trouble:
Ashamed… and dirty… and super awesome.
juicya:
Venus nipples? That sounds like another word for inverted nipples. (Which totally exist. Google that shit.)
shirley:
Here’s the pic you’re talking about.
I don’t think it’s a white girl thing. I think those shadows you see are the dimples. Seriously.
Diane:
It’s like a rodeo. Grab on tight!
Becki:
Hmmm… Maybe that means it’s a genetic sort of thing.
Kitty:
Back dimples don’t discriminate.
mel:
You have dimple-envy?
mulk:
Shuriken stars? Are you sure? Cause I thought it was more a sign of caltrops.
Jizz divits. Now THAT is some funny ass shit. I can’t wait to tell my girlfriend that…
i think that revealation makes me look differently at justin timberlake’s new song… “i’m bring sexy back!” thank you, i’ll be here all week… try the fish… and tip your waitresses!
[…] I think the tightening of the pores thing is scientific fact, mainly because I saw it on Nip/Tuck. But really, all I could think of for this mistake was JJ’s new term: jizz divots. 45. Anything that involves inserting anything into his body that he has not specifically approved before hand. I don’t care what Cosmo says, some things are simply not pleasant surprises. […]
I think butt dimples are sexy. I love to see a girl bend over and show her dimples.
[…] Someone arrived at The Churning last week after Googling what do guys think of inverted nipples? (Somehow they ended up at my post about back dimples.) […]
I hate back dimples, they suck:

Loads of my friends have “back dimples” and complain about them. I’d love to have these dimples but i’ve got too much of a covering (i.e im a fat bitch)
i agree sometime soon someone will probably invent a way to have them “installed”. Next in the magazines it will be “beach babe back dimples” or something.
Them dimples rock!

ummmm….the picture shown is a picture of me right before i got my hair cut. to reduce the spread of nasty rumors, i did not, do not not and never had a lower back tumor.
i have always loved my bumples, i think they are sexxy and in all my years, have never had anyone tell me they look creepy. men love them, women want them.
I always used to have them & I never realised that they could be perceived as hot. However I’ve just gone to have a look in the mirror & they’ve disappeared! I’m well & truly devastated & must take appropriate action to reclaim my back dimples lol!
SPAMMER!!! KILLL THE SPAMMER!!!!!!!
Good catch.
they’re really common in dancers…
I have lower back dimples and they are very pronounced, even a little more so than the above photo. I was always a little self-concious about them but guys i meet that notice them love them so i have started really likeing them.
Jenn, could you contribute any piccys ?
wow, a lot of haters out there. you know you girls are jealous, and you men just wish your ladies had them. no need to feel bad, i love them, 99% of dudes love them. they are a nice, special thing to add to the beauty of the curves of a ladies back. you cant be ‘too curvy’ for them. if they are there they will be there no matter your size. they are ‘holes’ in your muscle just over the hip bones. much like face dimples (holes in facial muscle). beautiful, exotic, sexy. love love love em’ ladies! and gents, i have seen them on a few guys and it is sooo cute!
Butt dimples are one of the most sexiest parts of a women’s body
i love thumbgrips, chk ‘em out
i would loooove to have “dimples of venus”. I think they are really nice…
Hmm… I have these. Never gave it much thought.
I have these…so no its not a white girl thing. I always hated them though, I thought they just screamed she has no ass.
I think they’re sexy. I notice that only some girls have them. I wish I did. I'’m very petite and skinny but I don’t have them. It’s not a white girl thing either. Tila Tequila is asian and she has them.
So….I was getting dressed in front of the bathroom mirror…and i’ve got back dimples. I am male. what does this mean?
