You've got to be careful...

...with words.
For instance: In England there is a several species of small birds known collectively as "jumblies". One of these species' common name is "Great Tit".
So, as you can see, one must be careful when birding, to say exactly what one means. "Say, did you see that pair of Great jumblies?", is very different from , "Holy crap! What a great pair of jumblies!"
And that's why I love the english language.

Indeed, however the correct response is "and Sparrows like breadcrumbs"
This being a shortened version of the age old addage "jumblies like coconuts and Sparrows etc "
A rich language it's true, one day I have promised myself I will master it!

Did you know we can say tit but not jumblies? (titz...tit plus an s)
Singular VS plural confuses the censor's narrow mind for some reason!?

So how did titmice get their name? There is a pair of them out side my window everyday, and upon close observation I can tell you they are neither thing their name suggests. Tufted tit mice? Huh?

Boobs, tit, titz, anus, rectal orifice, knockers, nipply, one-eyed worm, moisture missle, anal pore, boobies, and any other word I can think of that will raise the hackles of the overly sensitive "net nannies" and their sensitivities, not to mention their penchant for rampant "political correctness"...
That is all...
Cheers!

What's the big deal?

Ask the friggin' "Guest" whose excessive levels of estrogen caused his overly sensitive knickers to get all in twist over the word, or heaven forbid, some pictures of
*FULLY CLOTHED* breasticles!!!
Or better yet, ask the PC-infected "Moderator" that locked down the post that started all this furor...
I just don't get it...
Women
*HAVE* breasts, so they shouoldn't be offended at the sight of them... They see 'em every day in the bloody mirror!
Breasts are very much of what makes a woman a woman, and attractive to men, so why would anyone find it
*OFFENSIVE* that men would enjoy looking at breasts?
What normal, able man would be apalled at the sight of
*FULLY CLOTHED* breasts, and if somehow he was, how does he get through the day with all those women walking around with fully-clothed breasts in plain, open view?
And last, but certainly not least, why on God's Green Earth should that one moronic bozo be able ot impart his own view of morality and decency on the rest of us?
Obviously there were more people contributing to that thread that did not find anything about it offensive or distasteful, but the rest of us have to suddenly fall in line with one individuals overly delicate and puritanical sensibilities...
God, this "new age" PC-laced morality gives me the
*RED ARSE*...
Cheers!

Hell.....
I'm not amused, fascinated, excited, or titillated
nor am I
offended, put off, angered, or embarrassed
by breasts.
But I have often found the obsession, pre-occupation, and overwhelming need of boys (grown up or otherwise) to joke, post pictures, make fun of, ogle, and fantasize about breasts......
a bit over the top.
But I wouldn't think to correct, censor, delete, or openly object to the seemingly accepted (by men only) ever-popular pass time of objectifying women.
I don't avoid appreciating the works of the Lord, here or elsewhere......
but I don't go out of my way seeking it either.
OK, sure I'm a titillated by that which appeals to me,
but I don't find the need to validate my enthusiasm by participating in a group 'high-fiving' with the fellas over it.
Whatever.......

Pat... You said:
I'm not amused, fascinated, excited, or titillated... (by breasts)
This could, actually, explain quite a lot...
But I have often found the obsession, pre-occupation, and overwhelming need of boys (grown up or otherwise) to joke, post pictures, make fun of, ogle, and fantasize about breasts......
And you honestly don't think women joke and make fun of men, their appearance, *endowments*, etc.?
Geez, Pat... It is becoming abundantly clear you have never been around women much. They make men look like *PIKERS* when it comes to off-color humor about men! They enjoy making fun of us I think far more than we do poking fun at them... And if the truth be known, most of them are not near as puritanical or as sensitive as some of you "new age, sensitive" men are...
Maybe one day when you finally do have a meaningful, and sexual, relationship with a woman you will discover these things...
OK, sure I'm a titillated by that which appeals to me,
And what, exactly, would that be? Cats? Your lawn? A cigar?
If some of the wonderful, beautiful God-given charms of a woman that make her such a fascinating, attractive, adorable, arousing, enticing, stimulating and sensual work of art don't titillate you, what on Earth does?
but I don't find the need to validate my enthusiasm by participating in a group 'high-fiving' with the fellas over it.
But you seek such validation on a myriad of other subjects here... Why is it you decry the things others find enjoyable to share in their validation with, but not the subjects you hold dear, like your various "issues"?
Just curious...
I know you won't respond... How could you?
Cheers!

Moving right along....sorry Dallara...hope you don't think I'm sticking up for our old friend Pat...
I know you are only saying what you really think but it comes across as that you're sticking your boot in..just a little..
Anyway...I'm very careful about the pics that I post..I never mean to offend anyone and sorry if I have.
I know there's family people here that log on with their kids on their lap..
I know there's church going people here that think some things are rude when they're really not..(IMHO)
I would not normally post a pic like this..even though I find it very funny..to me it just seems a little wrong (IMHO)..even though there's no nudity.
What do you think.
DJ

Now *THAT'S* one of the funniest...

As a father of two girls, I really hope that guy is in jail. Pretty serious violation the young lady. She does look pretty able to take care of herself, but if I saw that take place I'd wanna punch the guy myself.
I take it the humor is "look, an ---hole taking a picture of an ---hole"
Not sure I really get it. Doesn't offend me, just sort of pisses me off.

Look at his collar. A man of the cloth, perhaps? At least he likes girls.
