Quality glute workout that isn't squats?

Thread Starter 
Like the title says, I'm looking for a way to workout my glutes without doing squats or going to the gym since I can't afford a gym pass. I have 2 15lb dumbbells I've been doing lunges with, they work alright but they're more of a thigh workout. Other than the two dumbbells I also have a bench press bar with lots of adjustable weights.... any ideas?

Stiff leg deadlifts or romanian deadlifts.

Step-ups on some sort of box or step would work well. However, if you want to stay weak, skinny, and lack overall fitness than continue to avoid squats. Otherwise, buy the necessary equipment to do squats (sounds like squat stands are all you need, which are about $100) or join a gym.

+1 a fuck-ton.

My favorite lift(s) right now. They suck like hell cause it kills you but you can love em all the same. Both are easily done with a straight bar and plenty of weight. Youtube/google the form cause you can fuck up your back if you do em wrong.

You might consider one-legged squats: http://www.beastskills.com/Pistol.htm

If you're interested, that site has many other exercises that can be performed with little, if any equipment.

Have you ever seen the ass on a serious runner? (Female, hopefully, you cawkfegs). This method works, but only after a lot of time and dedication.

I would suggest doing snatches -- they always give me a good glute workout.

EDIT: nm you only have 15 lb weights. Then single legged squat would work too.
