Why are cleavage cracks considered sexy, but ass cracks considered gross?

Anonymous
The title is pretty self explanatory. So I asked myself this question when I came across this photo on the internet:
Why are cleavage cracks considered sexy, but ass cracks considered gross?
I thought the photo was funny, weird, and ridiculous all in one. I swear, the woman who took the photo has no respect for her boobs once so ever, lol! Now whenever someone sees her show cleavage, they'll think of a guy's butt crack, lmao. She'll never get a boyfriend! And she's not unattractive... she could get a guy pretty easily if she wanted to... but that photo totally ruined her reputation.

But the photo itself got me thinking the title question: why are cleavage cracks considered sexy, but ass cracks considered gross? I myself fit into this category, but I don't really know why. Before I saw she was equating her cleavage to the dude's butt crack, I found her cleavage sort of sexy, but was instantly grossed out by his butt crack.

My take on it is that it's because of how cleavage cracks and butt cracks are represented... cleavage cracks are usually shown on sexy women, while butt cracks are usually shown on chubby out of shape plumbers.

However, if butt cracks were more often represented by sexy women wearing low rise jeans and shorts, I doubt they'd be considered as gross.
