I just don't get itPoor Semiret, he's foreign and has no idea if he "should laugh about the whole 'only playing music when they are out of ice cream' thing or not." There's also a Far Side cartoon that has had him stumped for almost 20 years.
What don't you understand? What have you politely gone along with whilst internally going WTF?

Some things just keep cropping up...To set the story straight... UNCLE ICEPIMP EXPLAINS ALL...
The human male nipple!
The sex of a human foetus is not determined at conception, but actually later on in the development of the unborn child. Hence many of the organs and features (including the nipples) develop first before nature decides to make the offispring a little boy or a girl. This also sometimes explains why some people are born with both sets of sexual organs!
The high-heel shoe!
WTF! Indeed! Uncomfortable, darn impractical and generally only attractive in the minds of the women wearing them (apologies to any transvestites reading this).
So why do they do it?
Well... in our caveman days, the first sign of a human female reaching sexual maturity was the growth spurt in her legs (we've all seen gangly looking 12-13-year-old-girls, right?). Well high heels are designed to accent the leg length.
Hence heels are designed to provoke a sexual response in men and afirm the pecking order with other women in the social group.
The human female breast!
We all know that there is absolutely no reason whatsoever for them being anything but flat as a pancake (just look at the average female chimpanzee). Performance as mammary glands is not affected one jot by breast size.
The reason for their development into the shape that we see in modern times is that we leaned to walk on our back legs (instead of on all fours, a bit like a chimpanzee). By walking upright, the female pelvis had to adapt and in doing so, moved the sexual organs further to the front of the body. And so the missionary position was invented!
Prior to that, all sexual congress had taken place doggy style!
The buttocks however, remained a potent sexual attractant to males (as they do today). The early human males would gravitate towards females who had 'buttock-like' mounds on their chest (ie. could still see bum-like objects during missionary poistion sexual intercourse).
And then it was down to evolution to do the rest. Mainly plump-breasted females reporduced. The pancake-flat ones generally didn't and so the 'pancake' gene was all but eradicated from the gene-pool.
Length.... girth?.... It's not the size of the nail.... it's the hammer that drives it in!
