azurelunatic | On Janet Jackson's boob

Nice piercing. If only my boobs were small enough to pull that off, I might like something like that. Looks like she doesn't have implants, go her! That is one sweet costume, and looks practical for nursing, if the boob thing goes back on as easily as it came off. (Of course, evidently piercings like that and breastfeeding have been said around me to not mix, so you'd have to choose.)

A lot of parents are going to be answering questions that they probably didn't want to answer regarding piercing. (For the record, if my father had been watching and felt called upon to comment, he would possibly have made some mildly scathing comment, possibly modifying his usual comment on facial piercings (holes in the head) with a comment about the effects of gravity over time.)

That is a really nice bit of jewelry, though, and she shouldn't be ashamed to have shown it off, though the venue was not exactly ideal. When I saw one of the pictures the first time, without commentary, I thought that it might be some interesting new style; the nipple shield looked enough like a pasty that it could have been a one boob covered by dress, one boob covered by something else, style. (I'm reminded of a Heinlein dress from Number of the Beast, I believe?)

was apparently fond of that idea. It shows up in Job, IIRC, I Will Fear No Evil, and For Us, The Living. I can't remember if it shows up in Number or not.

Laz and Lor were dressed in mirrored outfits, and I seem to recall that whazzname and whazzname, the chick and her mother-in-law, were dressed identically but mirrored as well.

Could well be. I'll have to reread Number. :)

some hip hop singer (little kim?) wore something similiar to an award once, it was a glitter fabric star that pasted over the exposed nipple.

eh.

Cool.

OK, I just looked that up since you were talking about it, and because of that piercing you really can't see ANYTHING. Like you said, it looks like it could easily just have been part of her outfit. The saddest part is that people were outraged over this? Why in the name of Eris would anyone possibly be offended by a breast? What the fuck is wrong with us?

In context it was evidently more obvious. They were singing away, and suddenly the guy reaches out and touches her, and POOF! boob.

There are those of us to whom a body is just a body. And then there are those of us who believe that certain parts of the body are always sexual in nature, whether or not it's an oopsie.

Yes, but even if it is sexual in nature, that still doesn't explain the outrage.

I wasn't watching, and don't grok it either, so I'll join you in saying that the viewers of TV are nutso.
