I lack a good opening for this entry, so I'm just going to skip the formalities. This entry also will not have proper structure. It's hot. I'm jittery. Also, this entry will be about titties ( Read more... )

pictures, curiosa, folklore

If breasts were not exposed until the woman produced a son it is little wonder there were no "perky little breasts peeking out from under their jeogori." Pregnancy stretches them out and the constant filling up with milk then baby emptying them is like taking a rubber band and constantly stretching it out and letting it snap back; the elasticity breaks down. That is why the wealthy men of the Western Countries paid for wet nurses.
Mother of four (three sons) who nursed them all.

Partially nudity was accepted in much of the world at one time or another. It was widely spread with the North American and South American natives, Africa, South East Asia, and many other areas. It was Euro-Christians that made it offensive and unacceptable. It is rather silly to hide the human body. Once the curiosity factor wears off, it is no big deal.

Actually the anti-skin thing was not as big a thing at the height or "Christiandom". The most desired fashion style fro about 1400 or 1450 to 1780 was Extreme Décolletage. In this style the nipples were shown. Initially it was an upper class thing, mostly because the FULL fashion was expensive and you needed servants to get into the clothes. Then there was the myth of that perky tits=virginity (or fidelity in marriage); and no I'm not joking. They had this nutty idea for the first century of that style that big boobs meant a woman was "easy". That idea died though, and women of all shapes and classes eventually took on the style. Those who did not have the cash for servants would simply unlace their bodice to show their breasts ( ... )

"I'm Korean and I never learned that!"
Haha, you can fill Jamsil Stadium with things that Koreans dont learn. Doesnt mean they dont exist. Also, they are taught their own version of the truth. When I try to talk about Korean history, politics, geography, etc with Koreas, they usually have nothing to say or contribute.

"Thomas Jefferson had sex with his slaves and fathered children? I didnt learn that in school so it never happened."

This is not true. This was created by Japanese during the time they occupied Korea. It is sad that these pictures are still around as they are truely a freud and nothing more than a attempt by japanese to give Korea a bad image.

Um, then why are there statues of women with hanbok like pictured above along Chungaecheon today? Did Japan put that art there without the Korean gov't knowing? To trick us all?
