Here’s a ramble about breasts, and a GPOY to accompany it.
Breasts are interesting. They have so many dimensions. They’re just lumps of fat, but they’re so /important/ to people.
From a scientific perspective, they’re an incredibly useful and amazing body part. They have the ability to feed another person, to create nutrience and keep another animal alive. That’s pretty awesome.
From a cultural perspective, they’ve become inherently sexual. At least, in this culture. Which makes you think about how people seem to be attracted to things that represent pro-creation, because from an evolutionary standpoint, that’s what breasts are.
I think breasts are sexy, but I also think they’re awesome, and impressive, and cool, and I also think they’re just body parts, like any other. I definitely don’t think they should be such a big deal.
America isn’t the only country where breasts are important to people, though. In certain parts of Africa, it’s common for the young women to pound on their breasts with their fists to make them sag more, because saggy breasts represents wisdom, and wisdom is beautiful.
Some people find breasts wildly attractive. Others are indifferent. But regardless, it’s rather ridiculous that they’re considered obsecene. Breasts are many things, but obscene is not one of them.
