Are you sure it was a he?
Does it really matter?

You were twisting a sword in "his" lower body.
a.random.persona was the one who was doing it not me, and I assumed lower body would be the stomache and guts.

Damn me not reading the name of the posters. I generally recognize by avatar.

Anyway, listen to this Dwarf Fortress joke.

Urist McSexyHammerMan hits the Female guard in the lower body!
The hammer is stuck in the wound!
Urist McSexyHammerMan twists the hammer!
Female guard has become overexerted!
Female guard has given in to the pain!
Female guard begins worshipping Urist McSexyHammerMan. A dwarf deity associated with creation, pregnancy and breeding.

Upper body is belt line and up (inb4 i wear my pants really high or really low) Lower body is below the belt, so your stabbing the jewels there....

Are you sure?  Because in the raws a humanoid lower body is:

  + lower body
    - lower spine
    - guts
    - liver
    - stomach
    - pancreas
    - spleen
    - right kidney
    - left kidney
So if it contains you kidneys, stomach, spleen and lower spine it isn't that low down.

Kidneys and gutts are lower body. Upper body is lungs and heart. I always assumed that border between upper and lower body is where ribs end (for humanoids).

Bend your spine. It's where you bend. That's the boundary. I think that's where you diaphragm is too. (Spelling?).

So yeah, about where your ribs end.

it is a bit of an inconstancy.  Damagewise the upperbody seems to end at about where the ribs end.  Equipment-wise it's where the pants start.

I go by the damage's definition for the difference overall.  The lowerbody just holds pants for simplicity's sake.  Because splitting a shirt up into upper and lower shirt would just be convoluted.

This is coming from a game which once had "Left glove" and "Right glove" , simplicity? In this game? heh

yknow, in days of yore before the modern fasion of wearing baggy pants halfway down your legs, you would do up your belt above your hips, a little below your ribs, right around your kidney/liver/guts area. so its not all that strange.

If you think about it, pants are actually hanging from the top where the belt is which is usually placed above your legs. It makes sense.

Also, upper body=bottom of neck to end of ribs lower body=end of ribs to beginning of legs upper legs begin at the hips and end at you knees.
Just try wrestling a bit and you'll see

Well, shirt is one object, so when someone is torn in two, it should remain on one part. Shirts are generally held by shoulders. You can take off a shirt by pulling it up (mey need to unbutton at the very top, but still). But you can't take it off by pulling it down.

Try ripping ripping a person in two: shirt will stay with chest even if stomach stays with the lower part. There will be no "lower shirt".
