Izinqe ziyizingxenye ezimbili eziyindilinga zesimo sangaphandle sezilwane eziningi ezincelisayo, ezisendaweni engemuva kwesifunda se-pelvic. Kubantu, izinqe zitholakala phakathi komhlane ongezansi ne-perineum. Zakhiwa ungqimba lwesikhumba sangaphandle kanye namafutha angaphansi kwesikhumba abekwe kwimisipha yesobunxele nangakwesokudla ye-gluteus maximus kanye ne-gluteus medius. Imisipha emibili ye-gluteus maximus yimisipha emikhulu kakhulu emzimbeni womuntu. Banesibopho sokufeza ukuma okuqondile lapho umzimba ugobile okhalweni; ukugcina umzimba ume mpo ngokugcina amalunga enqulu enwetshiwe; futhi uqhubekisele phambili umzimba phambili ngokwengezwa komlenze (okhalweni) lapho uhamba noma ugijima.Ngasesikhundleni sokuhlala, izinqe zithwala isisindo somzimba ongaphezulu futhi zisuse leso sisindo ezinyaweni. Emasikweni amaningi, izinqe zidlala indima ekuhehweni ngokocansi, futhi amasiko amaningi asebenzise izinqe njengenhloso eyinhloko yokujeziswa, njengoba ungqimba lwamafutha ezinqeni lunikeza ukuvikeleka ekulimaleni ngenkathi luvumela ukwenziwa kobuhlungu. Kunezincazelo eziningi zezinqe kwezobuciko, imfashini, isiko kanye namahlaya. Ulimi lwesiNgisi lugcwele amagama amaningi afanayo ahlonishwayo avela kuma-colloquialism ahloniphekile ("posterior", "backside" noma "bottom") kuya ku-slang slang ("imbongolo," ," "bum," "butt," "booty, "" prat "). Izinqe zakheka ngobuningi bemisipha ekhazimulayo noma i- "glutes" (imisipha ye-gluteus maximus kanye nomsipha we-gluteus medius) ophakanyiswe ungqimba lwamafutha.
