The other part of me is having difficulty comprehending why boobs are a bad thing.
It was a joke based on one of your prior statements.

I mean, you're not even trying at that point. It's completely lazy to the point of being insulting. If you're gonna do non-human races at all you better do it right! (Hence why I love Iksar and Asura so much more than I do, say, Argonians...)
However, the rest of that post...I wanted to cite artists like SYRSA who use breasts for all kinds of purposes in their work, but I know, in your head, if you slap tits on a nonhuman, it's "lazy" and "insulting", so I'm not even going to bother. I recognize a quest of futility when I see it.
I will, however, point out that by stating you know what the right way to do non-humans is, you are opening up a can of worms, because that in and of itself is a whole 'nother argument, one not on-topic for this thread.

I can actually tell the difference. It's pretty easy for me. Though, my Lala, Koporo Aporo, has been called a girl both OOCly and ICly multiple freaking times, so I must be gifted or something.
