Honestly doesn't even register any more. They're massive, they dominate the landscape. Your eye is drawn by the gravity. It happens

Hell, my own grandmother confessed to me once after we ran into each other at a shopping centre her first thought was "good lord that woman has large breasts" and then she saw my face and recognised me.

there are boobs

then there are forces of nature we are merely subjects of.

[–] triptrapper@lemmy.world 57 points 3 weeks ago

My wife has big boobs. Sometimes she shows them off on purpose, but even when she doesn't, they're big and round and nice to look at. She says if people are going to look, at least be inconspicuous about it and not stare.

That said, I know other women who have felt cursed by their big boobs because everywhere they go, they're ogled without their consent. Which is also fair. Just because some women are okay with it, doesn't mean I'm entitled to check everyone out.

[–] Skanky@lemmy.world 43 points 3 weeks ago

As a man who like boobs of all sizes, I can't help but glance sometimes. You are all beautiful. Sorry, not sorry.

[–] Squirrelsdrivemenuts@lemmy.world 42 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Very different depending on how I have dressed. High collar or sweater or professional wear, I think you are aweful. Low-cut shirt, bikini, cute outfit, I'm expecting and tolerating you. I only get happy when it's my boyfriend staring.

Frankly id just like to know what your beef with squirrels is

Why are you only asking the women? /s

[–] CapuccinoCoretto@lemmy.world 40 points 3 weeks ago (7 children)

I'm a man with moobies. Ask me anything!

[–] Goodeye8@piefed.social 18 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

How do you feel when men or women glance at your moobies?

[–] CapuccinoCoretto@lemmy.world 22 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I'm a little dissapointed they don't stare more, lick their lips and wink at me.

I'm happily married, so nothing would ever come of it, but it would still be nice.

What's your opinion of jazz?

[–] CapuccinoCoretto@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Absolutely love it. From Robert Johnson to Herbie Hancock and everything in between. Let me know if you need any specific recomendations.

[–] queerlilhayseed@piefed.blahaj.zone 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Who's the most basic jazz artist? the one everyone knows and yet everyone kinda looks down on. Who's the The Red Hot Chili Peppers of jazz?

[–] CapuccinoCoretto@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] queerlilhayseed@piefed.blahaj.zone 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I have heard of Kenny G, which is a strong indicator of basicness. Gonna give him a spin. I yearn for the peoples' jazz.

[–] CapuccinoCoretto@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

He is quite talented, though polarizing. I like him as a musician more than I like his music.

But he is undoubtedly very talented.

What’s your solution for Russell’s paradox?

[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 12 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Something like "sets that aren't even hypercomputable aren't real". Inventing proper classes, which are like sets but randomly can't go in other things, is a pretty lame solution, anyway. Although, it can probably emulate the former approach, and it's easy to describe.

Source: I have some flab some places.

[–] CapuccinoCoretto@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago

To rely on people more competent than me on such matters of importance.

[–] gandalf_der_12te@feddit.org 5 points 3 weeks ago

mathematical expressions are evaluated on a computer hardware (the brain), that in "normal" cases eventually converges on a result. but sometimes it starts oscillating instead.

[–] zout@fedia.io 5 points 3 weeks ago

I'm good, thanks.

I worked hard enough to get them, I'm glad when anyone looks at them! Most people don't though because they're not very big

Assigned Boobs At Birth?

a quick glance? no worries, I'm a lesbian and am certainly guilty of the same. repeated glances or staring is rude and absolutely changes how I treat you in a pretty negative way.

[–] sixtoe@lemmy.blahaj.zone 17 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Bold to assume anyone can avoid looking at my tranny rack. What do I do when they don't look is the better question. Yeah, go look, pervs.

[–] RBWells@lemmy.world 16 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I'm small of bust, but therefore don't bra often (except at work) so occasionally get a look, I am neither flattered nor offended. I work on my body but boobs are just luck or money, not an accomplishment.
