I like the human body

Modesty is fine, if that's what you're into, but ... what the blue fuck?

(thanks to Chris over at Barefoot and ... )

I have no problem with a woman dressing a certain way because that's part of her faith IF she openmindedly chooses the religion and she chooses to adhere to it's restrictions. It's these women who, rather than a thoughtful demonstration of faith, seem to be slavishly doing what some man wants, what men have always told her she must do (don't have to be religious to do this, do we? Look in any trailer park.). That just steams my noodles. I mean how insecure are men that they had to build a whole mystique within, say, christian fundamentalism where the women were guilty seductresses who should cover themselves in drab, shapeless fabric, open their legs whenever they're asked by their husbands, and cast their eyes downward in shame of being female. Do they also walk a few steps behind their men?

Here's some words to gag on: "Modesty is ... a decision to protect from purposeful or "unintended" enticement in inappropriate ways & places."

('Cause fundie men just can't fucking control themselves. They're the victims here, poor things, of 'enticing' women)

"discuss these things with your husband. Many will have ideas and convictions about what *you* should wear, but what matters most is what the LORD is directing and what your husband prefers."

('Scuse me while I vomit. I allow my toddlers to help choose what they wear, because they're human beings and deserve at least some say. To advise a grown woman to ask a man what she should wear is obscene.)

While we're on the subject of modest clothing, check this site out. These clothes are cool! I'd wear these clothes in a heartbeat. Why is it that the clothes by and for christians are dull and ugly but these jewish clothes (where they must adhere to a much stricter standard) are fun, bright, and stylish?

Alright, enough with the serious subjects. Fuck it. On to fun shit!

This is just fucking cool. Check out the guy's Cursors of the Future. The desktops are fab as well.

And I was gonna post this just for the hah-hah factor but then the science geek in me took over and now I bring it to you just cause it's cool:

The fake asshole. (Like I need one of these. I know too many real assholes.)

The interchangeable uterii. Simultaneously fascinating and creepy! I like the thought that my uterus looks like an alien ...

... or the Flying Spaghetti Monster now that I think about it (may he touch you with his noodly appendage, amen) ...

... something that would scare the fuck out of the average guy if he saw it wriggling it's way down a dark alley towards him. Eeeek! Hahahahah!

These are trainers for medical personnel (obviously) and I think that is just fucking neat-o-keen. It's great that science and industry can produce something to aid in instructing these folks in their jobs. I wonder what they did before? Use prisoners or the indigent? "Here, we're gonna let this person who's never stuck a needle in anyone before, practice on you. Hold very still!"

Ugh.

OK, that's all I have for ya. I and my uterus are gonna walk around naked for awhile.
