Yesterday’s True Blood Booty Call: Alexander Skarsgard Nude post raised an interesting question that neither I, nor Chelsea Mueller, the post’s author, could answer:
What do you call those delicious hip bone juts that are the male equivalent of side-boob?
So, since we know just what to do in times of emergency information required situations, we turned to Twitter. And author Isobel Carr provided the answer:
“In art it’s called the Polykleitos girdle (after the Greek sculptor).”
Another quick search reveals it is also called “Apollo’s Belt,” and “Adonis Belt.” Now we will no longer be at a loss when describing some of our favorite parts of True Blood. Or Battlestar Galactica. Or the mancheese viewing of your choice.
So now in addition to being your favorite romance site, we can also be your favorite educational site.
