You know, I've been lazy lately, not keeping up with my posting, thinking I've seen it all, and then POW! I'm back in the game, baby.<br />
<br />
Harry Styles, from One Direction (girls are swooning right freaking now), just got a new tattoo right beside his third nipple.<br />

Hey, teenage girl across the street, bring your Tiger Beat magazine over here and look at this: The Harry has three nipples! No, Niall doesn't have one too. <br />
<br />
Um, is that a Tardis? Dude. Not bad.<br />

<br />Aah, Mauritius. Beautiful island nation almost 1000 km off the coast of Madagascar. One day, I hope to visit. Apparently the view from the volcanic crater Trou aux Cerfs is spectacular.
<br />
<br />To wit, I'm talking about its view the "Let Trois Mamelons" or what we refer to in English as "The Three Nipples."
<br />
<br />Yup, three perky little mountains that remain topless. As far as I know. I mean, I suppose someone could have climbed them and carefully place a bra on the precise apex of the peak, for the sake of modesty, but why would they do that? I mean, it looks like a nice sunny place for tanning.

(Without their mothers finding out, natch.)<br /><br />As a male, maybe I look on it a little differently, but I've always found my extra nipple interesting and different, which is a good thing.<br /><br />If you're a girl, and you're dealing with that whole female-body-image thing, then I'm reluctant to offer advice, because it's out of my element... but here goes:<br /><br />Plenty of women have three nipples too (check out the archives of this blog -- models, dj's, actresses, pop stars, executed queens...) and trust me, what seems monumentally important at 14 will becomre more and more accepted as you get older.<br /><br />Besides, isn't it nice to have a quick and easy way to weed shallow assholes out of your potential dating pool?<br /><br />After all, if someone can't deal with your extra nipple, how are they going to deal with the rest of your unique personality? And if they're only interested in your blemish-free perfect female body, do you really think they're worth your time?<br /><br />In short, relax. Get used to your superfluous nipple and learn to love it. Find out what special powers it gives you. Mine alerts me when I'm in impending danger, or when the ice cream truck is getting nearer.<br /><br />I'll never advocate going to a dermatologist to get it cut off, but I hear it's quick and easy. Of course, so is going to the tattoo parlor and getting a third eye stuck in the middle of your forehead. Whatever floats your boat.<br /><br />Love, <br />Me and my third nippleDread Pirate Roberthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03425511343089544430noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16422305.post-27128254730832752262008-06-04T13:47:00.000-07:002008-06-04T13:48:46.322-07:00Three Nipples in Tibetan CultureIn Tibetan tradition, an extra nipple can be a good omen!<br /><br />Three nipples, and other birthmarks, are sometimes indicators of special abilities within the nyingma (ancient) tradition.<br /><br />Birthmarks and third nipples were a <span style="font-style:italic;">sine qua non</span> (absolutely necessary) condition to prove extraordinary visionary destiny within the tulku (incarnation or rebirth) system.<br /><br />I'm not making this up, either -- a very kind Tibetan (is there any other type?) named Panchen Kunga (he writes a blog, in French, called Buddhistan at <a href="http://buddhistan.blogspot.com/">http://buddhistan.blogspot.com</a>) passed this on to me after visiting.<br /><br />And after hearing how important extra nipples are in Tibetan culture, I figure that's just another reason to loathe the murderous scum that make up the Chinese Communist Party and have been butchering innocent Tibetans for over 50 years now.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcrR7bplFnMjlSi72luX5r3_Lvu9I4mKFpTKqpVayD809HvC8hmr6854zZtoXietMlem0tgGxOtD7iLamQLEJdyBclaYdK4Oa9Znap3bYePbfB51T0SWOlqQTXI_WI1rzK2rICQw/s1600-h/tibetflag.gif"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcrR7bplFnMjlSi72luX5r3_Lvu9I4mKFpTKqpVayD809HvC8hmr6854zZtoXietMlem0tgGxOtD7iLamQLEJdyBclaYdK4Oa9Znap3bYePbfB51T0SWOlqQTXI_WI1rzK2rICQw/s320/tibetflag.gif" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5208130378087180018" /></a>Dread Pirate Roberthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03425511343089544430noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16422305.post-69762412471046458672008-04-09T13:48:00.000-07:002008-04-10T13:32:29.471-07:00Tony Parker has SIX nipples!Dag, yo, I'm going to have to ditch the good Canadian boy Mr. Steve Nash and start cheering for the San Antonio Spurs.<br /><br />Thanks to an eagle-eyed reader of this humble blog (this hero wishes to remain nameless), I've got a new post for everyone.<br /><br />According to this here picture, Tony Parker, all-star basketball player and husband of the muy caliente Eva Longoria, has six nipples.<br /><br />Go ahead, count 'em.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV_2wd4l2HiR0IBwGrfvpKhDh1fvVPttlUhyCA6c97NeilOWgn_xKg2ZsBoJ6Cwn267gxhMV6xPJLf0W88Y4RadXeu49kPVJLnurZ4F0DSJOd3V68SpaHx13PM0sYTqJVlFBZpcg/s1600-h/tony_parker_002.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV_2wd4l2HiR0IBwGrfvpKhDh1fvVPttlUhyCA6c97NeilOWgn_xKg2ZsBoJ6Cwn267gxhMV6xPJLf0W88Y4RadXeu49kPVJLnurZ4F0DSJOd3V68SpaHx13PM0sYTqJVlFBZpcg/s320/tony_parker_002.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5187350952865099202" /></a><br />Of course, we all know that the dudes with the superfluous nipples always get the girls, and this is just further proof.<br /><br />Hear me all you people out in the Intertubes, desperate housewives love the extra nipples.

Look at all these extra nipples!Alexander Graham Bell was ready to answer the call of science -- especially when the subject of superfluous nipples came up.<br /><br /><span style="font-style:italic;">From the Science Vault of <a href="http://scienceblogs.com/retrospectacle/">Shelley Batts</a>:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">The Multi-Nippled Sheep of Alexander Graham Bell</span><br /><blockquote> Some say that American science is defined by its innovation and creativity, and who better embodies that than Alexander Graham Bell? Inventor of the telephone (strike that, first patenter of it!), founding member of the National Geographic Society and the journal Science, Bell's list of accolades is long and prestigious. Although, perhaps a little-known fact about this man was that he was also quite preoccupied with the nipples of the sheep that lived on his estate. After noticing that some sheep had more than the average number of nipples, he attempted to systematically breed them to determine the genetic underpinnings of the extraneous nipples. Luckily this precious information was published in Science in 1904, entitled "The Multi-Nippled Sheep of Beinn Bhreagh."<br /><br />Beinn Bhreagh was Bell's estate near the town of Baddeck, Nova Scotia. When he purchased the property, some sheep came along with it. Or as he put it "I found myself to be in possession of a flock of sheep; and in the spring of 1890, one half of the lambs born upon the place turned out to be twins."<br /><br />This higher-than-normal percentage of twins seemed a bit odd to Bell, who being a curious person, decided to examine the mothers of the twins and compare them to the mothers who had single births. And he did find a difference.<br /><br />"Upon examining the milk-bags of the sheep a peculiarity was observed that was thought might be significant. Normally sheep have only two nipples upon the milk bag, but in the case of several of the sheep examined, supernumerary nipples were discovered....."<br /><br />Bell further saw that the extra nipples were not functional, although some had three or four nipples instead of just two. Furthermore, the sheep that had extra nipples seemed to be more likely to bear twins (43% vs 24% for the normally-nippled sheep.) So he thought it'd be fun to "make an extended set of experiments to ascertain 1) whether, by selective breeding, the extra nipples could be [made functional], and 2) whether ewes possessing four nipples instead of two" were more fertile and were more likely to have twins.<br /><br />As to the first goal, Bell's breeding program eventually yielded five and six-nippled sheep (and he expected seeing even more nipples, even eight!) and at least four of the nipples were functional. And sadly, his second hypothesis as to the multi-nippled sheep being more fertile, was disproven. Although, he felt that this had to do with the small sample size and noted that twins born to the multi-nippled mothers gained more weight although they were born smaller than normal. His hope was to impart upon the flocks of America genes from his sheep for "twin-bearing stock [which] would do much to promote this important industry by enabling farmers to make a double profit..."<br /><br />Well whether that was ever accomplished, the article doesn't say, but Bell did mention an offer of free pamphlets to any interested members of the academy. </blockquote><br />Yes, Alexander Graham Bell, born in Scotland, emigated to Canada, moved to the United States, and moved back to his estate in Canada for his greatest work, breeding sheep with extra nipples.

Or at least the lucky ones are. Do you think we just wake up one day and say "Man, I think today I'll have three nipples?" Jiminy, no!<br /><br />Here's part of her hatemongering...<br /><blockquote>God created Adam and Eve, not Adam and Eve and Adam's Third Nipple. These people are not part of His plan. They shouldn't be able to adopt children, they shouldn't be allowed to teach children, and for goodness sakes, don't let them marry!</blockquote>Save me Jeebus, from crazies like this. First of all, it hasn't been proven Adam and Eve DIDN'T have three nipples each... but it was probably only one of them. Someone had to pass that gene down to the rest of us. Eve, most likely, since hers always seem to be hidden by those leaves (what's she trying to hide?), but who's to say that some nipplephobe didn't airbrush Adam's extra nipple out of that painting on the Sistine Chapel?

Gould and Walter Lytle Pyle"</i><br /><br /><blockquote>Polymazia (or polymastia) sometimes seems to be hereditary. Robert saw a daughter whose mother was polymastic, and Woodman saw a mother and eldest daughter who each had three nipples. Lousier mentions a woman wanting a mamma who transmitted this vice of conformation to her daughter. Handyside says he knew two brothers in both of whom breasts were wanting.<br /><br />Supernumerary nipples alone are also seen, as many as five having been found on the same breast. Neugebauer reports eight supernumerary nipples in one case. Hollerus has seen a woman who had two nipples on the same breast which gave milk with the same<br />regularity and the same abundance as the single nipple. The Ephemerides contains a description of a triple nipple. Barth describes "mamma erratica" on the face in front of the right ear which enlarged during menstruation.</blockquote><br />That's what you get for being curious. Now you can be thankful that you don't have a nipple on your face too. And if you do, well, "Mamma Erratica" is a pretty cool nickname.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5144/1268/1600/girlthirdnipplepierce.2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5144/1268/320/girlthirdnipplepierce.2.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a>Dread Pirate Roberthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03425511343089544430noreply@blogger.com2
