For the purposes of this trope, the qualifying areas are the chest (on women), the crotch and inner thigh, and the buttocks. Marks found on other areas, such as shapely legs, [[BareYourMidriff bared midriffs]] or a bare back do not count. Marks just shy of these areas (''just'' above the breast, buttocks, or crotch) are passable, though.

This trope is about characters with some sort of writing, markings, symbols or pictures on their naughtier bits, whether written on their clothes or displayed on their bare skin. This is often used as a tactic to deliberately draw attention to the said area, especially if paired with MaleGaze, FemaleGaze, or clothing such as bikinis or thongs. Some clothes designers intentionally put their logo here, or sell clothes with attention-grabbing marks as an advertising gimmick. ("Snorg Tees" is particularly JustForFun/{{egregious}} about this.)
