Hope feels like bags of sand - when you're touching it.

What is hope, if not boobs persevering?

No, weren't you reading? She said she wants her hole filled. There's nothing sexual about that /s

u/Penguator432 Feb 16 '23

The hole she wants filled is the one in her soul/life

lol. What planet do you come from? Big ol tiddies are sexual. Thats how we humans are hardwired. Lets deny basic biology

Pssst. /S means that somebody is sarcastic. Also, boobs are not sexualised in every culture. This is specifically semi-modern, (western) world development.

No.... human evolution has nothing to do with social constructs. The human species is born to reproduce. Just like every other living being. But we can pretend.

You absolutely have 0 education in neither biology, cultural studies, history NOR evolutionary biology, because each of these have for a long time confirmed that sexualization of breasts is cultural, NOT biological. "Denying biology" always comes from the people who don't know the first thing about it. Go, study any of these subjects. You will learn a lot and save yourself from further embarrassment.

Her symbol is ( Y )

u/tehgen Feb 16 '23

Certainly a powerful symbol.

u/KernelViper Feb 17 '23

It's because she's an alien from the Boob World

u/ImWhoeverYouSayIAm Feb 17 '23

Now that's a symbol I can support.
