Or wear condoms on our breasts, so we don't get pregnant. ;))

Subject: breasts as "genitals"
Well, not to belabor the point. And yes, I know it's a little off topic - but I just HAD to say this!
I was thinking about how crazy it is that Colorado state park rangers defined the woman's breasts (which they were OOGLING through binoculars) as genitals, and i started wondering what would cause someone to think that. It must be because a woman's breasts are a source of pleasure during sex. Fine, this - we all know to be true. But if we were to start *hiding* every body part that was pleasurable during sex, lots of other body parts would need to be covered as well.
Are you following my agrument? (I feel like a lawyer here - ha!)
Lots of folks love their necks and ears - even ankles and knees to be kissed and caressed when making love. But this -as we all know - is not their primary function. This is what American culture doesn't seem to get. Breasts don't function primarily as pleasure centres. Whether you believe in evolution or creation - one must acknowledge that women have larger mammaries because of the need to lactate and feed their offspring. (Can anyone picture a newborn in the jungle trying to navigate his way up a hairy, muscular, flat chest?) That *women* are offended by seeing other women NIP is quite odd to me. It's not like we don't all have the same basic "set". :) ... Alas, I digress...
(I know I'm beating a dead horse, but i just gotta do it - thanks for baring with me) Dictionary.com defines genitals as: The reproductive organs, especially the external sex organs.
hmmm... i don't recall needing or using my breasts in the physical reproductive process when i had my daughter. anyone else?
guess we should all start wearing ear muffs and turtle necks to avoid indecent exposure.

warmest regards to everyone,
