--- End quote ---
Thing is, all a girl needs to get SOME man is to be willing, and undiscriminating. It matters very little what you look like: if you put it out there, and you're willing to go with any potential taker, you'll get a guy.

--- Quote from: Blackjoker on 11 Jun 2010, 02:23 ---As the artificial boob argument is going on I figure I should say in fairness that guys aren't above trying for personal enhancement. Otherwise all those commercials with the creepy smile people for pills that promise to increase size wouldn't be on so often.
--- End quote ---
The interesting thing about that is that that particular enhancement... ALSO seems to be aimed at men. I'm female, and size (barring freakishly small or large (ow), which both seem quite rare) really isn't important to me. I also have never personally met a woman to whom it mattered (again, outside of the rare extremes; you can always have too much of anything). I'm sure they're out there, but this does not seem to be on the average woman's list of priorities. When women moan in porn "Oh, you're so biiiig" -- remember, porn is 95% designed for men, and what's said/done/scripted is rarely what a woman is actually thinking, just what will appeal to the guys watching. Women learn to say it in real life to stroke their guy's ego and then that feeds the myth.

It is. It really is. I'm sure some of us agree that the boob talk needs to be dialed back a bit, but... not really for the same reasons.
Also, heteronormativity? This is, at heart, a comic about straight people (namely, Marten and Faye). Sure, they're in Northampton, but what, no one can write about straight people anymore?

See? I told you she was going to be okay. Hooray for Marigold!
And the last panel is the funniest thing I've seen on QC in months—not that it hasn't been funny, but my sense of humor loces this sort of thing.

What country do you live in? The only commercials about those types of pills we get here are the ones about keeping it up longer (with the fast-talk at the end about how if it stays up for longer than four hours, go to a hospital before things start rupturing).

Blackjoker must live in the U.S. I can't recall the product, but I do remember the guy smirking (my SO hates that smirk) that the "extra size? That's kind of fun, too."
I have often wondered if guys really do show up in the ER with five-hour wood. That's got to be a nightmare.

You forgot "Bristols", "Baps", "Bust", "Bosoms" and "Ta-tas".
Also, average cup size in the USA: B. Average cup size in the UK: D.
and people go on about "beeg amereecan tee-tees." :roll:

Tatas is in there, thanks. So I forgot the hyphen. Isch ga-bibble. As for the others, I didn't imagine I had an exhaustive list. Makes me think of a line from No Small Affair.
--- Quote from: Nodaisho on 11 Jun 2010, 04:05 ---*Snip* bosoms is in there twice, just misspelled.
--- End quote ---
If you ever heard anyone say bazooms, you'd know that's not true. And if it sounds like bosoms, they're not doing it right.
My personal bęte noir in that list is 'fun bags.' I don't know why, but I particularly dislike it.
Bristols?
Heliphyneau:
Yay, Dora's boob comment made Marigold laugh herself out of her funk! If Mar-bear only had two bras ("my other bra"), then it's high time she went shopping for more anyway. Wonder if she and Dora will swing by the Vibrator Shoppe as well.
And I love that Marten thought putting Angus and Faye in Time-Out in a bedroom with Pintsize, aka He Who Would Be Porn King and Future Wanglord. :lol: Not that it looks like anything's gonna happen, it's just among the things that are funny in that last shot.
