forsythThis is probably one of the least important things I could be worrying about. But what the hell, that's what LJ's for.
There's not really a good term in English to refer to the female breast. There's words that describe it, but most aren't really suitable for general use. Breast is entirely too clinical. Boobies is only good for puns and ironic "I'm six!" things. Tits is only good for puns. Gazoongas is right out. There's the romance novel method of involved slanting metaphors. Is there ANY suitable word, preferably one that won't get you slapped by any females in the area?
And yes, there's the same problems referring to genitals of both genders, but I'm not writing porn here.
