It really shits me how people say she represented the ideal beauty in her day. They don't know that. They weren't there. She might have represented a fat ho in her day. Funkwits, the lot of them.

she has penises for breasts.

she kinda looks like a fatter version of an ex of mine.

Back then that was how to bling.

My boobs feel like that today - big 'n' heavy 'n' made of stone (*not* like penises). Does anyone know a good boobache remedy? Sorry for hijacking thread with girlstuff.

Get your boyf to rub 'em? Failing that a nice bubblebath always helps....

Unfortunately, boyfriend cannot currently come near them without me yelping and running off.

there's supposedly some sort of herbal tea type thing that helps with this, but I can't remember if it's dandelion tea of valerian tea. I would think Valerian tea would just make you sleepy. Then I've also heard tell of putting cabbage leaves in your bra, but I think that's only if you're lactating, not for general boobache.

Hahahaha, can I make a joke about Cabbage in my bra? Would Miss Vicky be offended?

The tea-cosy on face look must return!

From Badly Sculpted Girl to Badly Drawn Boy ... ?

Anthony --
We call it Venus out here...

― jm, Monday, 4 November 2002 21:51 (twenty-two years ago)

but it isnt a venus, venus is roman-even godess is a bit suspect, with what little we know about her origins and purposes.

― anthony easton (anthony), Monday, 4 November 2002 21:57 (twenty-two years ago)

(nb "penises for breasts" is actually a serious anthropological theory!!)

Another (lactating) sore-breast remedy that might work is making chains of jasmine flowers and putting them on your breasts. (Warning to breast-feeders - don't do this if you want to keep on breast-feeding though because it stops the milk altogether from what I've read.)

Apparently there's some freaky chemical in jasmine that reacts with girly hormones - maybe it will help for non-lactating breast-ache too?

Well duh. But do bring it up with all my art history professors...

― jm, Tuesday, 5 November 2002 02:41 (twenty-two years ago)

Tho Anthony, you might be able to help...

...there's a drill that the Greeks used to carve the curls of hair in their statues. It has a name. What is it?????
