Interspecies Suckling, Addendum

Dang! I forgot earlier to post my favorite pic of this phenomenon. Here it is.

World Naked Bike Ride

This year, the World Naked Bike Ride happens on June 13.

Here's what the 2006 version looked like in one city.

Non-Sexual Breasts

The site known as 007 B dot com is devoted to the "non-sexual" history and usage of female breasts. Why is it named this? I have no better idea even after reading the official explanation.

The number 007 (read as "double-oh-seven") is normally connected with the thought of intelligence work and spies. Here at 007b.com the 'B' doesn't stand for "Bond" but for BREASTS. Our goal is to get people to use their intelligence, so as not to fall prey to the typical "007 - James Bond" type of thinking, which is so prevalent in many countries of our world today.

Anyhow, as part of their mission, they offer galleries of reader-supplied photos of "normal breasts" in all their variety, along with commentary by the owners of the breasts. I will not reproduce any photos here, but allow you to search out the galleries yourself. And of course, you must order their manual on the topic.

Interspecies Suckling

Here is an essay about women who breastfeed animals, for one reason or another, with examples and links to news articles.

Breast Milk Cheese

I've wasted far too much of my life wondering about whether human breast milk can be turned into cheese. (Well, it's only a few hours I've wasted, but still, that's far too long.) I discussed the subject in one of my books, and concluded that yes, it should be possible to make cheese from human breast milk.

But then, a few months ago, I posted about some woman who said she tried to make cheese from her own breast milk, and it didn't work. She said it was due to human breast milk having too low a protein count.

But here I see that Mexican artist Raul Ortega Ayala served breast milk cheese and crackers at the opening of a London art exhibition. So if you know what you're doing, it must be possible.

Extended Breastfeeding

Weird Universe has touched on the subject of extended breastfeeding before, but it's a subject that's worth a second look. In this video, Veronica Robinson describes how her daughters have developed a "long-term relationship" with her breasts.

Breast Pillow

More weirdness from Japan. The Oppai Breast Pillow comes in black or pink. It has a removable cover, and is "Soft... So Soft!" You can buy one for $55 at the Japan Trend Shop. (via InventorSpot)

Boob Claw Machine

Only in Japan would they take a claw vending machine and fill it with boob sacs (and then place it right next to a machine full of Winnie-the-Pooh bears). (via Gizmodo)

Fuko in the Mirror

Are extremely large breasts "Officially Not Weird" yet?

1) What if said breasts belong to a Japanese woman named Fuko, whose native land is less-famous for large bosoms than other climes?

2) And what if said breasts are magically duplicated on-camera by being pressed against a mirror for a long, possibly painful interval?

Needless to say, do not watch this video while your employer is surfing your shoulder--unless perhaps you work at a mammogram-interpretation clinic.

Diana Dors

Here's one of the weirdest things about life. There's this thing called "time" that can turn beautiful young creatures into bloated parodies of themselves.

Take the case of Diana Dors....
