Boobs, Pubes, And Tattos

This is a pig post in which I talk about some of the trends I see in women that piss off an old fart like myself. Many women may not want to read this. The more offensive stuff is on the second page.

Boobs

The science fiction write James Blish wrote a short story called A Work of Art. The premise of this story is that in the 22rd Century there are scientist/doctors called mind sculptors who are able to reconstruct personalities of famous people, and temporarily superimpose them upon volunteers.

In this particular story, one of the Strauses is reconstructed by a mind sculptor. He writes an opera and conducts it in front of an audience. In the last act, he realizes it is crap. It was worse that the old Straus had written. Bear in mind that this guy thinks he is Straus so he should know what a good Straus opera should sound like.

At the end of the performance, the audience was screaming with joy. He turns around and, to his relief, he sees that they are not applauding him, but the mind sculptor.

And that is how I feel about breast implants. Should I be admiring the woman or the surgeon?

We have girls as young as seventeen getting breat implants as graduation presents. I would say that probably half the Playboy playmates every year have implants. In the pictorials they give credit to the photographers. Dontcha think they should give credit to the surgeons as well?

I like large boobs as much as the next guy, but if I can tell they're implants, it's not the same thing, and I can usually tell. If they're perfect, they're implants. If they're large and they pass the pencil test they're implants.

The pencil test?

Yeah. It's how to tell if a woman needs to wear a bra. If you put a pencil underneath a breast and it stays there, ya need to wear a bra. Women with big 'uns need bras. Often women with implants that give them big 'uns won't hold the pencil. That defies gravity and the laws of nature. They're fake. I prefer natural.

Pubes

OK. When did the shaving of women's genitals start? I'm sorry but that really turns me off. Kim du Toit remarked a few months back that it makes women look like life support systems for labia. I have to agree. It just doesn't look right. Yah, I'm an old fogie but I think women should look like women!

I guess this started because women want to wear skimpier bathing suits? Is that why? Quite frankly, G-strings also turn me off. Don't women realize that something can be sexier if left to the imagination?

I'm sorry, but I'm really missing sumpin' here. And I'm starting to sound like my parents.

Tatoos

Why do people, not just women, want to deface their bodies with tatoos?

Of course, this brings to mind the old triage nurse tatoo to teeth ratio theory of accident survival. It states that if a person has more tatoos than teeth, that person will survive an accident.

But back to tatoos. Why would a beautiful woman want to get a tatoo? Especially on her ass? Doesn't she realize what that tatoo will look like in 20 years? Or howza 'bout her stomach? Think what it will look like during and after a few pregnancies. Or what about one on a boob? Think what that's gonna look lie after gravity inevitably takes it's toll. Ugh!

So, what do ya think? Am I full of shit? Is this what the young guys want? Are Kim du Toit and I the only old farts who are turned off by this?

The young female body is a work of art. Why deface it? A tatoo on a woman turns me off.

I like a well groomed bush.A totally shaved one looks like an old worn out catchers mitt.

I have come to the conclusion that 90% of women with tattoos on the small their backs are good for nothing little sluts.

Sorry dude, have to diagree with you somewhat here. Starting with boobs (a great place to start, lol), of course I prefer the real thing. But the mistake most people make is that they think women do this for guys, so they can measure up to other women. WRONG!!! They do it because they're self-conscience of having small breasts. Every woman I've known with fake boobs says this. I agree that a 17 yr. old is too young to have this done, epecially as a gift from Mom and Dad, that's creepy bordering on bizarre. Imagine if Doctors could do for dicks what they can do for boobs.

Pubes- Well, since thongs have become popular, what choice do they have? IMHO, nothing is more gross than seeing a babe in a thong with pubes sprouting out around it. Makes me want to pull out the weed-whacker. But hairy bushes are a major turn-off, at least for me. Nicely trimmed is okay, if not preferable, but if it looks like George of the Jungle could live in there, it's time to do some bush-whacking.

Tattoos- My g/f has three, one on her ankle (A rose maybe an inch in diameter), one somewhat visible (on her back just above her butt called an entwined band, about 8"L by 2"W), and the third on the back of her left shoulder (Her daughter's name). I don't have any, myself. I agree with you about the boob tattoos- they're okay until breast-feeding and gravity start pulling them south-bound.

I like my boobs in a B/borderlineC .. Small aerolas, and pointy to the "poke your eye out" stage.. The kind you can lick, then blow on, and they get those little bumps around the nipple !! Know what those little bumps are ?? Thats braile for "suck here" !!
I dont want no big, hairy-ass, amazon bitch, with what looks like a damn badger attached to her coochie either !! I dearly love that little trail of fuzz leading from her navel down to a thin patch of downy soft, sparse coverage tho.. The kind that glistens in the sun, like snowcover on a full moon..
Tatoos and piercings only detract from a fine, well-toned female body.. I dont even like those little Playboy Bunny sticker shadows left after the tanning booth..
BUT. Now thongs were made for ol Wild Bill, I think.. I'd rather see a woman with both cheeks free, than one with one cheek in, and one hangin out.. Kinda like talkin to someone with a chunk of spinach on their front tooth.. Makes ya wanna tug her suit back in place.. Thats the one thing that aggravates the shit out me while watching Women's Beach Volleyball.. They always have to stick that finger in there and pull their suit back in place.. Next thing you know, they are using that same finger to wipe sweat off some part of their face.. Why not just wear a thong, then when you jam your finger and then try to suck the pain out of it with your lips, you dont get that aftertaste !! Lets face it tho.. Some women just DONT NEED to wear a thong.. If I want to see cottage cheese, I'll go to the produce section.. Know what I mean Vern ??

Gravedigr- I'll assume you did a scientific study to come to that brilliant conclusion. Who'd you ask- Your customers?

Posted by: Rob Cooper on August 20, 2005 03:58 PM

I've never cared for tattos, especially on a womans back. Some one who worked for IBM told me that they were strictly forbidded at IBM. He had one on his fore arm, and always had to wear long sleeves. Denny probably could expand on that. An anchor, or a flag on a sailor seems reasonable, but so many of the ones I see today show a lack of forethought on the part of the bearer.
Implants are another thing I find disgusting. I like small breasts. My wifes are perfect IMHO. "B" cup.
Shaving? couldn't care one way or the other. some women look good with a full thatch, others look like they need a good trim.

No, you're not full of it; you're having a mature reaction to the fads of an infantile age.

(Oh hell, I've broken Deal's law. Back to kindergarten with me.)

I belong to the "old fart" school of appreciation for the feminine form. Tattoos are not art, they are blemishes. And shaved bush gets 5 o'clock shadow too. Very scratchy under certain intimate scenarios, don't you know!

Piercing and tatoos, admittedley by my standards, represent a type of regressive, tribalistic behavior. Even as a young boy, with VERY prurient interests, I found little sexually attractive in big National Geographic glossy photos of bare-breasted native women with pierced faces, navels, or the like. True, the occasional nubile youngster showed appealing mammary form, but not enough to overlook the bones and rings.

For me, intimacy with a woman should not involve visual distortions of the female form, painted or otherwise, or getting snagged on random collections of hardware.

Jeremy - IBM did not prohibit tatoos. However, if you wanted to get into management or sales and you had tatoos, you could forget about it.

Posted by: Denny on August 20, 2005 06:08 PM

As far as boobs go,I don't care where she got them.
Some pubes look good shaved,others are just scary looking.I do prefer a bit of fur,but those half-acre thickets could use a bit of yardwork.
Tattoos are a definate turn-off.

Posted by: Kevin on August 20, 2005 06:10 PM

Thats what I meant, I doubt IBM cared one iota if a guy in the back had one. The guy I knew worked with the DOD on Trident, and on many of the space flights.

Tempest Storm, a regular, still has the same measurements she had at 18! She is now in her 70's and still puts on a hell of a show.

A "D" here, And would not pass the pencil test. Cuz they're real. And I have been wearing a bra 24/7 since the age of 13. Just sayin. I like when guys say that they do not like the fake ones. Never felt one. But I am sure it must feel strange.

Wow...just wow.


This Pencil test is unfair. Ted Kennedy couldn't even hope to pass the pencil test.

I once asked a friend why do women get tattoos on the small of their backs? After all, they can't even see it back there, so they can't appreciate the design or the art. He said, "It's a whore thing. So when John or Michael or Dave (or anyone for that matter) bends them over and starts pumping, he'll have something to look at." I thought about it, and it's probably true. Either that, or they do it because all their girlfriends are doing it. America is a bandwagon society. A handful of people buys SUV's, everyone buys an SUV. A handful of people get tattoos, everyone gets tattoos. A handful of people watch Real TV (whatever that means), everyone watches Real TV.

Personally, I think most people are freakin' idiots, so I do the opposite of the "teeming masses." I'm 33-years old, and I have had no divorces and no kids (thus no child support payments). I have no debt, no tattoos, no piercings, no cell phone, no television set, and no grief. I have a 4-cylinder pickup truck (paid off, of course) with 145,000 miles on it (runs great), and it gets great gas mileage. I hope gas goes up past $5.00/gallon so these morons in the SUV club can see their stupidity and short-sightedness with the utmost clarity.

Oh, I prefer real breasts. They're most likely attached to a real woman. Conversely, fake boobs are often attached to...

I prefer a good trim or a buzz. The worst thing that can happen when you are down there is getting a hair stuck in the back of your throat. Trying to hack a hair like a cat is not attractive, nor is it fun. I was always afraid of puking when sticking my finger down my throat attempting to scrape the hair off the back of my throat. It totally kills the mood and her orgasm. My wife has seen the benefits of it and keeps it trimmed up just the the lawn in my yard.

Imagine if Doctors could do for dicks what they can do for boobs.

Yeah, but those are FUNCTIONAL. If a man gets a bigger johnson, people on the street wouldn't necessarily know about it.

Women don't realise that any man who only likes big boobs is usually a complete asshole. It's not about the size, it's about the proportion with their touche! Small breasts can look three times better than large ones if the ass is nice.

Oh, I prefer real breasts. They're most likely attached to a real woman. Conversely, fake boobs are often attached to...

I agree, very good point.

Now, about the fur. I don't mind one bit if women trim around the bikini line, just makes the garden look more inviting, especially when it's just been freshly mown. :)

And hey, pubes are a sign of maturity guys. Do you want to feel like your girl to look like she's 13 years old? I think not. Plus it gets pretty darn prickly down there if they shave/wax, let me tell you.

Posted by: Roy on August 21, 2005 08:40 AM

MarksMan stole most of my thunder, about everything.

I don't like fakes: the size, shapes, feel or mindset. Big fakes get in the way and don't jiggle right when they are firing rifles.

Trim-OK

Tattoos, absolutely HELL NO. Trashy, stupid, permanant, herdish. Job security for the laser burners and the lawyers that will sue for botched removals and the shrinks that will listen to the snivelling about their mistake getting sillycone and tattoos. And I think better of tattoos than piercings!

Posted by: TomR on August 21, 2005 09:23 AM

I agree with you on every point GOC

Posted by: hoosierboy on August 21, 2005 09:28 AM

I can’t argue with you on permanent tattoos. They fade, run and, no doubt soon will go out of fashion. There are temporary tats for those with a longer view that still want some decoration. Would that be defacement? Is face painting? Eye shadow? Is the permanence what you object to or the decoration itself?

Your judgment of where a woman should let her hair grow is no less personally valid because it is arbitrary. I suspect that you would not object to a woman waxing her chest if the mat there were overly obvious. We probably agree on armpits and legs but what is natural about a woman that takes the hair off legs and pits but not pubis? Thankfully there is nothing natural about any aspect of our lives.

You are, of course, entitled to your own aesthetic judgments on cosmetic enhancements. Beauty that grows on its own is admirable because, among other reasons, it is quite rare. The people that have things fixed, say teeth straightened, a deformed ear reformed even though it collects sound just fine or exchange AA cups for Cs know they are not working with what they were born with and can’t rationally include themselves in the set of people that are beautiful because they grew that way, but they like the way they look better than before. Moreover, things being what they are, opportunities may open to them that were closed before. No matter how good you are at what you do, somebody with more or less the same ability that looks better is probably going to get the sale or promotion over the Ewok. That’s just the way it is and I for one refuse to slam anyone for acting on the desire to look better.

I’m open to the possibility that you are far more sexually active than I am and have the opportunity to do serious inspection; having been married 35 and change years the only women I see in a condition to check on the pencil test are porn queens and I expect them to be fantasy constructs. The women I see on the street are for the most part fully dressed and I, no more than most am able to reliably tell natural from built by looking at shirt lumps. There’s no way to tell. They all look good and girl watching like most forms of entertainment involves some suspension of disbelief, so it’s not beyond the normal scope of the activity to embrace the fake reality that they just grew that way.

I once had a friend who wanted a tatoo on her breast. A Unicorn. I asked her if she had taken a good look at her family, the men as well as the women. I informed her that the pretty, perky unicorn that she'd be putting on her body at 20 would like like a deformed giraffe with a tumor by the time she was 40.

She settled for a heart on her ankle. Her ankles have held up better.

Speaking in defense of myself and my nicknamesake, I hand-drew my two dragons myself, and had them put between my shoulder blades precisely because I knew that my backside would most likely get bigger as I got older. I refused to have anything that wasn't an original piece of my art. They're a personal thing--I don't flaunt them deliberately and about the only time anyone sees them is if I'm wearing a swimsuit or the top dragon's head is peeking over a halter-top.

Other than that, I agree completely. While a few small ones are nice, women covered in tats can be pretty raunchy. There are lots of chicks in Austin that would look stunning if they hadn't disfigured themselves with tattoos and piercings that make them look like a demonic Hottentot. They're going to look HORRIBLE when they hit their seventies...*shudder*

I agree about the tatoos, especially the lower-back one. If a girl has to put a tatoo back there to get somebody to get behind her, she's working to hard. But if she wants something back there, how about just mounting a 10" flat panel TV so at least I can change the channel during commercials?

Just askin'...

Posted by: Patrick on August 23, 2005 08:38 AM

That should be "too hard". Too, as in "too anxious to get my wit posted."

Posted by: Patrick on August 23, 2005 08:40 AM

I like shaved girls, you know with clean lips, if there is still some hairs left above to show that she's a woman.

For me, it looks dirty, a girl with hairs all around her pussy.

I'm pretty sure it comes from X movies, I guess I watched too many ... another internet issue :)

About shaved genitals, how can you be a muff diver if there is no muff?
