Though the word is not included in major formal dictionaries, web-based user-generated dictionaries like Urban Dictionary,[66] the Double-Tongued Dictionary and Wiktionary, have entries for the word.[67][68][69] The book compilation of Urban Dictionary describes the whale tail as "the shape formed when a G-string rides up high over a woman's pants or skirt".[70] The Dialect Society mentioned "longhorn" as an alternate term for the whale tail.[71]
