ethiopian tribe

The tribe that measures stature by how distended your lips are
Here's a disturbing photo essay from Ethiopia, in the current Rolling Stone, where people, starting young, walk around with painted, oversized discs in their mouths, presumably to garner respect and attract mates. Warning: Not Safe For Work™, in that they also don't wear much in the way of clothes. Rolling Stone

Reason #5871 to be glad I'm a woman in AMERICA.....

Very true. I'll take high heels, push up bra's, and some make up any day over that!

I have to say, this is also a good reason to be glad to be a man in America. I would hate to have to select the best big, ole giant disc lip bitch (say that 5 times fast)I'd like to hook-up with.

Seriously impedes the BJ's
Posted by Jules in Connecticut on 10/29/08 at 09:38 AM
My thoughts exactly, Jules. Besides the fact that its just butt-ugly.
Posted by Madd Maxx on 10/29/08 at 09:40 AM
Right, but when has that ever stopped a guy from getting a BJ? You don't even need a paper bag over the head for that, just don't look down and kick her the F out (of the car) immediately after.

Oh, it doesn't stop anything...I was just saying.

Jules, dear heart, you've got some issues!

BTW, good photography just a whole flock of decades late to be much in the originality department.

I know I do, but what brought that comment on?
Posted by Jules in Connecticut on 10/29/08 at 10:08 AM
Jules - It was probably the "kick her the F out (of the car) immediatly after" comment.
Posted by Madd Maxx on 10/29/08 at 10:27 AM
Don't miss pics #7 and 12. And I have no idea what's going on in #15. Maxx may be right about that guy.

Who do you find more attractive? The lip ladies or the neck ladies?

I'd have to say the neck ladies since they seem to be cleaner. Either one is just so freakin' freaky that they freak me out.
Posted by Madd Maxx on 10/29/08 at 01:33 PM
Yup, it was the "kick her the F out (of the car) immediatly after" bit.

Well really, you don't want to be taking something head-bag worthy around to your friends do you?
Posted by Jules in Connecticut on 10/29/08 at 02:12 PM
That depends Jules. Maybe if your bringing the head-bag worthy 'slut' to your friends because friends share everything.

long as she's not from Chattanooga
