h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

How so?

There was an article in a national paper a few days ago about breast-feeding which suggested that it's only in Western cultures that breasts have become sexualised. Pretty much like everything else then!

I dare say anything can be made sexual in this day and age, it's quiet frightening

I'm not going to bother pointing out your spelling error, for two very good reasons:

1) I know you don't care about it (and it's not a funny one, anyway)

2) I know what you're likely to do if I keep nit-picking...

actually I noticed it just after I posted...I just couldn't be bothered double posting just to sort it.

*hurriedly re-acquaints himself with four pages of backlog - curses missed opportunities for so many pithy one-liners*

If I could point out a distinct mindset of the female - did anyone else notice the way Em drew attention to her bum being big, when no-one else had even mentioned it (or indeed seen it).

I'm sure Freud would have a lot to say about the way the brief lesbian conversation was propagated entirely by females as well...

B

Did I?

Well it doesn't honestly bother me much.

The bum, or the lesbian thing?

B

Bum.

So you are bothered by the fact you find females attractive?

B

All in your mind Master B.

It only makes sense that a girl would find another girl attractive; we ARE the aesthetically pleasing sex after all *sniff*. And as for the 'lesbian' thing, I have my own theories about that, most of which rely on greyscale/spectrum thinking, and the assertion that there are very few people who are strictly 'heterosexual.'

And as for the 'big bum' thing..well us girls are just always going to be paranoid about that. We're westerners. Our self-esteem neuroses are the price exacted for our more amusing cultural quirks. May as well get used to reciting the words "No honey, you're hot! You're hotter than ever! No, I didn't mean to say that you weren't before..no..but..oh I give up! Just forget I said anything. No don't cry! ohhhh!!" I sometimes think men go bald from mentally tearing their hair out..psychosomatism, or what have you *grinnn*
