A "dolphin tail" may mean the same thing as a "whale tail". This is a pop-culture term referring to the waistband of a thong or g-string when visible above the waistline of low-rise jeans, slacks, skirts, or shorts. It's shape resembles a whale's tail. As a fashion statement, it is considered passe. During it's height of popularity, the state of Louisiana made laws against it as indecent exposure with violators liable to be fined.
