the Kylie bum is actually very close to the perfect male bum -- it's far more androgynous than people would like to admit.

I've always thought that my ass would look great on a woman. (Minus all the hair, of course.) I think most men would agree.

The only thing that makes that second picture not look like a man is the hint of a curved waist under her left arm. Other than that, she could be a skinny guy who spends a lot of time working on his back but none on his arms.

You should get a watermelon, cut a small hole in one end, hollow it out, and coax your cat inside. Then seal it up again (with an air hole, of course), and produce it for a meal, cutting it open (very carefully, of course), and out leaps a sodden cat! Pretend to be taken aback!
