(NSFW potentially) Are lesbians as obsessed with breasts as men are?

Asked by FutureMemory (24753points) October 12th, 2010

Indirectly inspired by this question: http://www.fluther.com/100313/aside-from-using-a-safety-pin-what-are-some-ingenious-ways/

OK, it’s no secret that men LOVE boobies. We have breasts on the brain 24/7 (just look at one of zen’s posts). What I want to know is, do gay women sit around and bullshit like men do about the subject(s)? Do you gals whisper to each other Jeez, look at those…oh my god..” etc, etc. when out in public?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Hell, I’m not a lesbian.. and I love breasts just as much as the next guy. Oh, and.. yes, my girlfriends and I talk about breasts. I envision them out of the clothing they’re in, and often catch myself looking for a few seconds longer than I probably should when they are especially lovely.

Yup. I’m pretty much always thinking about breasts, boobs, tits, ta-tas, bazoombas, melons, mammories, bosoms, headlights, and any other name for them you can come up with. In fact, I’ve had several men tell me that I thought about boobs more than they did.
It’s important to note that the fascination dies pretty quickly when it’s your own. I think it’s because you can feel them (often in pain) and criticize them when feeling unpretty. However, show me a pair of boobs that aren’t on my chest, and the fascination comes right back.

Breast love is universal.

@papayalily ditto. I don’t like my own. I like everybody elses. However, I know at least one or two women that really, really love their own.

I don’t think I’m as boob-crazy as the average guy. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I love boobies. (movie ‘Role Models’, see it if you haven’t already) I like looking at them, touching them, admiring them, imagining what they look like unclothed, all of that. I just don’t seem to have the same frenzied obsession with them as men appear to.

Not so much a fan of my own, but that seems normal. Other people seem to like them a lot, which is good enough for me.

Ronnie Shields: Damn, she got some boobies on her.
Wheeler: You sure are a fan of the boobies, kid.
Ronnie Shields: Oh yeah. Sometimes I call myself “The Booby Watcher”. I even have my own comic book. “The Adventures of The Booby Watcher”.
Wheeler: Okay. You know, I have a theory about boobies.
Ronnie Shields: Really?
Wheeler: Oh yeah. You see, there are as many women as there are men in this world.
Ronnie Shields: True dat, true dat.
Wheeler: And every woman has two boobs, for the most part. So there are twice as many boobs as there are men. We’re outnumbered and it’s overwhelming. We’re powerless, and we have to accept it.
Ronnie Shields: I like yo’ take on boobies. And I like boobies.
Wheeler: Kid, you got a lot to learn.
Ronnie Shields: I know what I’m doin’.
Wheeler: Oh really? So you don’t realize you’ve just committed one of the most common rookie boob-watching errors?
Ronnie Shields: What you mean?
Wheeler: Never stare at the boobies, kid. Once you get caught, the game’s over.
Ronnie Shields: But how?
Wheeler: It’s called training. You know, being aware without drawing attention. You don’t think I’ve noticed those 34 C’s in the camouflage tank top setting up a tent directly to the left of us? Or how about those twin cannons hiking up a mountain ridge 50 yards due west? Or the ridge itself? Round mounds of grass shaped like…
Ronnie Shields: Boobies!
Wheeler: Don’t look over there. Look here. Focus… You’ll get it.

You can’t write people’s names in the Q – @FutureMemory – I’m flogging you and flagging this. ~

I am not even a lesbian and I love breasts. I don’t sit around talking about them all day with my friends, though. I feel like they might view me negatively differently if I did. o_O
