Re: boobs. 

Now, I understand that men are more visual creatures than women and women, when they do ogle men, tend to focus more on other features, such as stomach, chest, arms, etc. But it is kinda taboo for women to make comments on the size/shape/etc of men's "junk". And similarly, we see a lot more topless action in feature films that full frontal male nudity - very rarely do we see that. Why is this? What is so much "worse" about male genitalia that it must be hidden all the time, yet women's boobs can be on display all the time?

Just waxing gender-theoretical today...

boobs and genitalia are sort of different IMO.  But I get your point.

In the same lines, I don't hear men talking that much about size/shape/etc or a womens "special place"....  so it's "sort of" a level playing field.

But I think a lot of it has to be with the fact the white men controlled so much of everything in history - so just about everything in society, religion, politics, etc, is kind of geared to what a white male would want (at least in the western world).  Those in power get what they want in most cases.

I know these is VERY broad strokes of generalization, but it seems to be true (even if it's not right or fare).

Boobs aren't the equivalent of "junk".

I know. But boobs are an indicator of gender/sex that we can easily see, as is junk. So why is it normal to ogle one and not the other?


Male-dominated society says so. 'Kido beat me to it.

Well, for one, boobs are prettier.  Naked girls, in general, are nicer to look at than naked guys.  Sorry guys, but it's the truth.

You can make comments about my junk if that would make you feel better. Doing what I can for gender equity.

Me too, as long a adjectives such as "impressive, giant, massive, wonderful, stunning," are used in abundance....

There's a reason the pretty cars/boats/planes are curvy (female) and not all angular (male).

I disagree. They're angular for technology's sake, and sexy for the same reason. They are buggers to fly, from what I hear (at least the fighter is).

Give me a P-51 or P-40 over an F-111 any day, and twice on Sunday.

ETA: Technology has taken over the driver's seat from aesthetics in recent years. You can see it in all sorts of designs.

P-51's *drool*.  I was also a fan of the corsaire - the wings were georgous....  Not the best flying.  The Japanese zeros would be a kick in the pants to fly, I'm thinking...

The better half likes Lush... She can spend hours in there. I'm done in about 2 minutes...

Lush makes me sneeze and it's overpriced.

I only use a few of the milder products-no floral scents for me

Yes, but as Artemis said, they're not really all that attractive, so we don't spend a lot of time ogling random ones. We are generally only concerned with the ones belonging to men with whom we are doing naughty things.
