I like boobs

[illusion]

Boobs as weapons makes me think of the Fembots in the Austin Powers movies.

Now those were totally lethal tits.

did somebody say BOOBS!!!

*Stares at picture* You have a nice pair of... uhm, eyes, yes, that's it, eyes.

Uh, anyway, I like boobs. I'm pretty sure I'm not anti-woman or anti-feminist... I just like boobs. Is that such a bad thing?

The majority of feminists take the female role to the victorian extreme that women are sensitive and delicate creatures who should be treated just so and prevented from being anything else. If you've ever read the graffiti on the walls of female toilets you will know that this is in no way true.
I find it oddly sickening (and a very uncomfortable issue) when people talk about violence against women. I really don't feel there's any problem with a man and a woman going 13 rounds in a boxing ring (or any other type of arena) and while I do think that there is something wrong with attacking people who have no wish in fighting, I think it's more sexist to say that a woman (because of her gender) is to be afforded special treatment in the combat stakes.
While there certainly differences between men and women in terms of build and weight, that is no reason to say that they are incapable of conducting themselves well in a fight. Funnily enough, that's gender equality.

Killer toothache yesterday, kept me from being very motivated about checking back here before now...

I'll skip replying in detail to much of what you said suffice to say that I think the majority of our discussion has arisen from us using words in slightly different ways. I suspect we'd actually agree on most things, at least in essence.

Yeah, I'd buy that for a dollar. I threw out the Meme comment cause I suspected we might be having a semantic argument - which is almost always a waste of time.

A couple of things though:
a) Main Entry: dic¬?tio¬?nary
Pronunciation: 'dik-sh&-"ner-E
Function: noun
1.  book full of oversimplified definitions for  things based solely on the philosophical and cultural biases of the people who wrote it that is utterly useless as an arbiter of semantic disagreements.

Point. The 'courtesy' definition may very well have been a bit pedantic on my part. My bad.

I believe(d) that society was only an emergent property of groups of people and not seperable from them. I shall have to muse on the idea that society is a meme and come to grok it (again?) before I feel that I can meaningfully continue this discussion (and it may well be that the grokking renders continuation of this discussion moot).

OK.  

On another note, The Commander wrote that he believes that people are not inherently good, but not inherently evil either... I agree with this 100%.

And that's where the problem stems from. People are inherently selfish, which leads to inconsiderate behavior and ultimately a lack of compassion. It is a lack of compassion that is one of the root causes for most of the social evils that man visits upon his fellow man.

IMHO, of course.

In some sense.

Hope the toothache is better.

I believe that I have met (and been related to, by marriage) some genuinely selfless people. I do  not believe that people are inerently selfish, even if most of them behave that way.


Oh yeah: Mmmmmmmmmmhhh... Booobies.

I just now read this quote in a book called "Harlequin."

"Everywhere and all the time. We men are stupid, complicated. We wake at a woman's breast. We die, if we are lucky, in the same embrace. We walk a million miles to come back to the point of departure."

That quote actually suggests some very positive things about mankind.

Another thing, mankind is not composed of study people, only because the word 'stupid' is an adjective.  Thus, it requires a basis of comparison.  Picking out a particularly smart person for such a comparison is not only arrogant but weak as a source of justification.[/b]

I think I like boobies but if I look at a picture of boobies, it can be just as good. Pictures of boobies aren't boobies. If, then, it isn't the boobies that I really dig but just the experience that I have when looking at boobies, do I really like boobies? Or do I just dig the release of neurochemicals? Or should I just not post to the 'Net when drunk?

I think it would be untrue to suggest that (in general) the male human being is automatically entranced by breasts. Sure, they might be nice and soft (and appealing to me, as a heterosexual male) but they wont save you from my ruthless competitive nature (unless some aspect of your personality deems you worthy.)

Anyway, the whole point here is the physical shell is not what makes a human being attractive or unattractive, it is merely a modifier.

Indeed. I've never been one to understand the kind of attitude I've seen in this thread, and luckily enough, I haven't seen it in men I know.
Sometimes I feel like guys are just given the idea that men are supposed to dig breasts, and by that I don't mean "Yeah, they're nice" but "They're the best thing about a woman".
The few times I've read a women's magazine  between playing video games & blowing soap bubbles, I've seen that the idiotic females writing the stuff seem to like the idea of men being stupid about breasts, and I'm starting to believe the whole thing is fed by dumb women. "Just wear a tight, low-necked shirt and give a seductive smile, and the free drink will be yours." If you're a girl and not throwing up when you see something like that, consider drowning.

Of course, this could have something to do with the place you happen to live in, I might be too used to the sight of naked people to see what's so special about it.  If I were to be mean about this, I'd say that breasts seem to be special only to people who haven't touched them since they were babies.

I think everyone should be taught how to defend themselves while young.  I know my life would have been a lot easier had someone helped boost my self confidence and taught me how to handle myself in a fight instead of telling me the only correct solution when dealing with violence was to turn the other cheek.

I certainly believe in trying to reach a peaceful conclusion first, but sometimes people force your self-preservation reflex to kick in by continueing to harass you and threaten you physically.  

To this day, anytime I get angry enough to defend myself in a fight, I freak out and start shaking and usually end up bawling my eyes out.  Thanks for that Mom.

Battery is not just an issue women face.  I'm not saying that to diminish how utterly horrible it is when it happens, I'm just saying it is not an issue unique to women.  

Maybe it is just the bisexual in me, but I have always found women with muscles to be a little intoxicating and sexy.  I guess it is an attraction to women with power, cause men with muscles don't turn me on at all.

However, above and beyond anything, boobs hold my full attention.   Is there a martial art that uses boobs as a weapon?

Still, no one has explained objectification to me.

I still break down into tears after confrontation in spite of several years of martial arts, marching band and service jobs. The trick is not breaking down until after the confrontation

did somebody say BOOBS!!!

Two collars and a choke chain? Isn't that a little overkill?

Maybe for other people.  
But for Zorga and her sisters (and apparently for Malaul) there is no such thing as overkill.

So there.
