In humans, the crotch is the bottom of the pelvis (the region of the body where the legs join the torso) and is the part of the body that includes the groin and genitals.
==Etymology== Crotch is derived from crutch; it was first used in 1539 to refer to a forked stick used as a farm implement. This region of the body is also described with other terms such as groin or the lower ventral area.
