Without these analogies, I could probably have no idea of the traumas involved! But now, with the aid of yousenet, I think upon my experiences with kittens: a young cat of my acquaintance considers me to be her favorite toy--when I visit her house she rips into the living room to bite me very hard many times (she'd also like to use her claws, but they've been amputated; I'm not sure I agree with that practice but it has saved me from more extensive skin puncturing). This is horrible, to think of breasts biting men! Of course, the reasoning that breasts should be long enough to reach the floor of course substantiates that, like kittens, breasts must have claws (to catch!). And now, a terrible confession: just as in the 70s, when women started to discuss orgasms, it's time to come out and say I've never been able to get them to purr. (And what about those men out there: do yours purr?) Of course, the breasts-as-kittens theory of course explains the pick-up line "How would you like to come up to my room and listen to my etchings?" (I may have that slightly inaccurately), and the stereotypical bachelor "pad" (note the protective connotations) armed with stereo: remember "Music soothes the savage breast".
