Knees are still very nice to behold, but I want boobies.

Is it just me or has this thread degenerated to a bunch of guys discussing breasts?

I was born naked. Lots of people saw me naked when I was young. They tittered about it because I was a naked baby.
But when you grow up, you became something else. You become a horny monster that people can't bare to look at. I think they're only afraid of what they'll see in themselves.
Requiring people to cover any part of their bodies has nothing do with protecting them. It's to protect us from the shame we feel for our own selves.
Why should we feel ashamed? Even something like "I'm ugly" or is not a good answer. And things like "there are some people I wouldn't want to see naked" are even worse. You probably won't realize how exceedingly normal our bodies are until you see them yourself.

I want to go to Buca di Beppo again (it's a chain of Italian restaurants), and look at the scantily clad photos, and repeat what my cousin's husband said about every 5 seconds: Hey look, boobies!

Well, actually this idea isn't so crazy. Breasts are a very sexual part of the human body. That is why men love to ogle them. In fact, some evolutionary biologists think that women evolved breasts to compensate for us being upright beings as monkeys tend to look at the butt for sexual stimulus, so the breasts are like the butt of the upper body.

Both asses and breasts are very nice to look at. :wink:

I like where this is headed, Gigitty Giggity Giggity GOOOOOOOOOOO!

I watched the orangutans making love in the zoo last week. The lady orangutan laid flat on her back, while the gentleman orangutan porked away in a squatting position. He had no apparent interest in either her butt or her titties.

But he kept at it for a good long time. He didn't seem to notice her breasts or butt at all.

You're assuming that those people wouldn't be topless and used to it also.

Subcultures have a balance, allowance for demanded etiquette, maybe a psycho here and there but not quite as prevailant. Main stream culture - trash of all kinds.

I can't make sense of that.

Subcultures are a safe outlet for that kind of thing, society in general - very much not so.

If I could go topless in public, then what would I need to disappear into the backcountry for?
