The trend has amassed over 2.4 million views, with thousands of users sharing videos of them perineum sunning in their back gardens. One video, which has since been viewed over 600,000 times, sees a woman crouched over her phone with her bum facing the sky. "I don't know if you guys have heard of perineum sunning but it's when you expose your butt hole to sunlight," she wrote in the caption. "30 seconds is equivalent to walking around in the sun with all your clothes on all day long. Vitamin D, soaking it up."@jenn_dances4fun Perineum Sunning on Sunday #sundayfunday #perineum #vitamind #funfact #funfacts #sundays #poolday #badmom #coolmom #badmoms #fyppp #funnymom ♬ Perineum Sunning - Jenn_dances4fun
Reacting to the video, one user wrote: "Vitamin D gummy bears are a lot better." Another video shows a couple lying next to each other with their legs in the air. "Think about it, why would you not sun the most vital area of your body?" they wrote on the captions. "The more you hide a body part from the sun, the weaker it will be."

"We've evolved to walk upright where this area literally doesn't get sun so you shouldn't be turning it up towards the fireball in the sky in order to expose it."@paulylong Cant wait for all the skin cancer comments and dermatologist stitch vids ? #perineal #perinealsun #fyp #foryou #sun #sunning #sunlight #sunny #nosunscreen #sunbathing #sunbath #foryourpage #fypシ #controversial #skin #skincare #dermatologist #dermatology #doctor ♬ original sound - Pauly Long
