Please explain to me why the following fantasy races need their "female" figures to have boobs,  , breasts or knockers.
Lizard"men". Uh, they are not mammals. They do not suckle their young.
Snake"men". Ditto.
Dryads, etc. Ummm… they are plants. trees.
Insect"men". Do I have to go on? Not all females have boobs, , breasts or knockers. And notice I have not commented on their "armor" or weapons. |

Chutes and LaDDers? "Not all females have boobs, .., breasts or knockers." I think I saw a few in the images from H-Con… being sported by the other gender. |

Dryads aren't trees; they are just associated with trees. Dryads are nymphs, nature spirits that generally take the form of young women. So breasts are appropriate. You've got a point about the rest though. |

and those races that might have breasts.. should have the appropriate number.. (have you thought of the multiply breasted cat and wolf folk.. or even FemaCows.. I have always hand waved it as magic.. and pervy wizards.. |

Ummm. LizardMEN, SnakeMEN, InsectMEN. Ok – whateverMEN could stand for all sexes of the whatever kind. Still, it's fantasy. Perhaps fantasy critters of these fantastic types suckle their young. |

There used to be an advert for beer here in the UK that featured a cartoon cow called Graham who was identified as male but who had a set of udders. When the error was pointed out the advertisers claimed that they hadn't made a mistake and that Graham was always meant to be transgender. Most people regarded this explanation as a load of bullocks and it seems more likely that the creative geniuses behind the campaign didn't know the difference between boy cows and girl cows.

In D&D yuan-ti (ie snake men) are snake-human half breeds so could conceivably have inherited breasts from their human ancestors… |

Same reason they have them on Star Trek John T |

There used to be an advert for beer here in the UK that featured a cartoon cow called Graham who was identified as male but who had a set of udders. That's been done a lot. Apparently, "funny animal" bovines are "funnier" with udders. advertisers claimed that they hadn't made a mistake and that Graham was always meant to be transgender.

SJDonovan – my first college roommate was a dairy farmer and I asked him what the stupidest question he ever had gotten. He replied "You only milk the female cows, right?" |

SJDonovan, are you serious? Boy cow?!?! Female is cow, male is bull, gelded male is steer, young is calf and the species is CATTLE LOL :) no such thing as a boy cow……. |
| SJDonovan | 21 Jul 2015 9:19 p.m. PST |
Yes, I am deadly serious. But why are you so fixated on boy cows? There is no such thing as girl cows either. |

Well,at first glance of the picture I thought the "bovine" was wearing a loin cloth,at least until I read the explanation. It could have been worse,penis sheath comes to mind…. |
