A friend of mine was recently complaining that her boyfriend was comparing her boobs to his moms. My friend, who is fairly small chested was annoyed because she knew she couldn't compete. I mean, I agree. I know this mother and that lady has a nice rack but the whole time she is telling me this story I'm thinking, that's your concern? That your boobs aren't big enough for you boyfriend? My concern would be why is he making that comparison in the first place?? A mamma's boy is one thing but this, to me, is a red flag.
This guy is a good friend of mine and I know he's a mamma's boy. There is no doubt in my mind that the first few weeks of living on his own he is going to reach the point of starvation at least three times before having to call her and ask her how to obtain food on his own. But honestly, the boob situation is just weird! Freud says every man fantasizes about sleeping with their mother, but those are supposed to be deep, dark, repressed feelings that they keep buried waaaaaaaaaay down inside of them and don't speak of them out loud. But this is not even the only instance of weird family, incest-ish comments I've encountered lately.
While at a friends house last night her twelve year old sister comes downstairs and says, "Is it weird that I walked into mom and dad's room and Phil, (their ten year old brother), was there in his jeans and no shirt, and I kind of thought he was hot?" Of course my response to this was yes. Yes that is weird. But my friend, the eldest says, "No, I can appreciate that the kid has a nice body." Why am I the only one who thinks this is weird?! When I said something about it she said I don't understand because I don't have younger siblings. Ya, well I have an older brother and I would never talk about him being hot. Ever. I can say he looks nice on Easter and Christmas but that's where the line is drawn in my mind.
Then there are my two friends. These friends are cousins. Their families are close and they are the same age so they are very good friends. You would never be able to tell their cousins because one is very Latino and one is very not. When I first met them, before I knew they were cousins, I thought maybe they were dating. When I found out they were related I was caught off guard because honestly, they flirt...a lot. Then the other day we were talking and she says, "Ya he's hot, if he weren't my cousin I would totally be on that." Ew! The fact that you've had that thought is weird to me. I just can't handle familial sexual interest.
Maybe I'm just crazy, but I think the whole incest thing is coming back into style and I am not on board.
