As always, eye-catchers draw attention. Men and women alike wonder how the hell that voluptuous lady friend of Mr. Yuckie got a pair of big, soft rounded boobs, or why that macho dancer gyrating on stage has those big muscles and chests (breast augmentation? nature augmented?). Men gape at the flawless pair of legs that draws their breaths out of the capillaries of their lungs. Men, women and even children float because of fascination at the beautiful face of Catherine Zeta Jones, or because of the handsome features of Keannu Reeves (that would include me!). They also marvel at Jennifer Lopez’s butt twitching while performing "Let’s Get Loud".
But hey, these are not confined to the human species only. The animal and plant kingdom also have their share of species extraordinaire. As I surf the net, I found some extraordinary looking pics from kingdoms Animalia and Plantae. In the kingdom Plantae, the chinese lantern plant which resembles Chinese lanterns is extraordinarily orange colored and the snap dragon flowers have a unique, irregular shape and come in shades of yellow, red, pink, orange, bronze, lavender and white. They are said to have jaws that can be snapped open. In the kingdom Animalia, you will adore the extraordinary Fennec fox that has over extended ears. The white Bengal tiger never stops to amaze me of its angelic look and color under an extraordinarily ferocious face.
So many very unusual creatures on earth. Do ordinary men possess these extraordinariness, too?
When we stop to admire specific physical features in forms of life, whether animate or inanimate, we should ask ourselves whether our admiration adds or detracts from the humanity or essence of the human, animal, or plant, which incorporate those physical features we admire so much.
ReplyDeleteWhich raises the question as to whether admiring a woman’s big boobs can be regarded in the same way as admiring the colours of a Bengal tiger

hello richard j!
ReplyDeletemaybe yes, maybe no. it depends on the beholder. one can even have that same exhilaration towards the two depending on how they perceive people, animals or plants.
