thighs
Above the knees
Thighs are the upper portions of the legs, between the hip and the knee.
They contain the body's largest muscles and are associated with strength and power in athletics.
In cooking, chicken thighs are prized as darker, more flavorful meat than breast portions.
The thigh also carries erotic connotations given its proximity to the genitals; showing too much thigh has historically been considered immodest.
