Ooh, no missus.
This article made me think of “When Platinum Attacks: A Grampy Hampy Consumer Alert”, a hilarious article by Ben Hamper, author of Rivethead. In it, he reviews Billboard’s Top 5 Albums of that week, including Baby One More Time by Britney Spears:
Oh, and as someone who has PTSD from his Pediatrics rotations, let me agree wholeheartedly with the OP. I hate baby talk, even when directed at babies. My least favorite? The two-syllable use of the word “boy”, something along the lines of “Bow-ee”. “Oh, you’re a big bow-ee. Yes you are! Yes you are!” Made my skin crawl every time I heard it.

The correct term is “breasteses”, spoken slightly sibilantly.
Oh, now that I agree with also. Though I confess, as a new parent, it’s a struggle sometimes.
But I don’t see that “boobies” is baby talk. :shrug: Maybe I just had a deprived childhood.
I have to agree, kinda. “Boobs” is ok. “Tits” is ok. “Ta-tas” is bearable sometimes. But “Boobies” just makes me think of my little pet freshmen - the 14 year old boys who follow me around - giggling and going on and on and on about Britney Spears and boobies and me and boobies and that chick over there and boobies and their history teacher and boobies and did I mention boobies tee hee hee she said boobies. :rolleyes:
My favorite term for the female mammary is from Stephen King’s novel Carrie–dirtypillows. Tee hee!
Well my new favorite term for boobies is “female mammaries”.

Momma, they’re called breasts!

Breasticles.

I refer to mine collectivly as “The Girls”, as in
“I was going out, so I wore the Girls up last night.” (I had on a wonder bra)
or
“We were arguing and it was getting old, so I introduced him to the Girls” (graps the man’s head firmly between your hands and bury it in clevage, adding a little chest shimmy, so there’s boobage sort of slapping each side of his face - sure fire way to win an argument - well, unless your boyfriend is gay.)
Al.
What about non-breast related slang?
The worst, IMHO, is “My bad” to apologize. Grrrr.
Yeah, “funbags” is pretty awful, by the way.
My favorites:
Honkers
Knockers
Sweater Monkeys
Personally I usually call them “tits”.
My wife seems to call them “Hey! Get your hands off of those, you freak”.
Well, “boobies” is pretty bad. But, like “pussy” which I also hate, if a guy used the word, I would probably just tell him never to use it again. “Titties” on the other hand- I would get dressed and go home. But that’s just me.
This is why we should confine this discussion to those who either have breasts or get turned on by them. Breasticles? :rolleyes:
Cheers to ROSS!!! A poster who knows the way things should work around here 
Mine are called “pride and joy”.
