Women are so crazy. (toon)



found on explosm.net



I think, I got it. Showing of boobs is appreciated if its a sign of subservience to men. It is not appreciated if its a sign of bodily autonomy.

Women "should" show their boobs on command, but they "shouldn't" be comfortable showing them.
It's not about tits/breasts/boobs/boobies/gazoongas. It's about the ability to use a woman's breasts to establish symbolical dominance over her. If the woman usurps her breasts to establish her own symbolism, males lose a tool of social power and are pissed about that.

NO ONE has the right to tell any one what to do with their bodies... boobs, penis or vagina. Bodily autonomy means "I decide." Cute cartoon but a little too esoteric for the masses I fear...

Love, Peace and Shelter. Lmsp

Maybe for a small subset of men.

As to normal people, the showing of breasts is appreciated no matter the reason.
