Guys in Japan love the so-called zettai ryouiki, the “absolute zone” that describes the sexy part of the bare skin on the upper leg of a girl, particularly accentuated when she is wearing a pair of knee-high socks and a short skirt.

Now Japan’s netizens, not a tribe with too little time on their hands, have come up with a new name for a new absolute zone.
