Young women would have big bushy ones. Adults would envy their lushness. Celebrities would have memorable ones. Weird “freaks” would pierce theirs! Rebellious teens would dye theirs weird colors. The military would make you trim yours to a tight uniform length. Black dudes would braid theirs. White dudes who sold drugs would do the same. Old people would complain how teenage boys didn’t groom theirs like they did “back in my day”
Some old men would have hairless ones, but the ones in denial would try to use a few long strands to cover it up. Respectable old ladies would have theirs crafted into a bun.
If i had a tail, I’d wag it when i was happy!
Teenage boys would get embarrassed when their tail would wag in front of a cute girl. Teenage girls would worry whether theirs had the right amount of curve.
Dolly Parton’s would have been so lush it curled over her head; lots of jokes about that one. And she’d always keep it sequined.
Trump, of course, would have a ridiculous one.
Tails…humans really lost out when ours went away. Just imagine the possibilities!
Depends on what sort of tail you’re envisioning. I’d think that, if we did have tails, they’d be monkeylike, but your talk of braiding sounds more like a horse.
Sounds more like a doggy tail to me: it waggles when you’re excited and you can groom it, and some breeds like setters and retrievers have long hair on their tails.
What did you think “penis” literally meant in Latin??
Now, I have never seen it, but apparently it has been known for some humans to be born with a vestigial tail. It is not as exciting as one might hope, unfortunately, and is removed surgically.
I wouldn’t mind a tail, as long (ha!) as it is prehensile.
ETA: I fear the marsupilami is not widely known in the USA. That is a pity. He can do astonishing things with its tail. That`s the kind of tail I would love to have.
The show Orphan Black had a subplot about a transhumanist group that was into body modification, one of whom had a tail surgically grafted onto his lower back. The fictional technology involved gave the tail nerve endings and blood flow, although not musculature as far as I recall. It was more gross than cool IMHO.
