Slog - Comments on FUNWARI MILK CHAN! http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/09/funwari_milk_chan Every once in a while on the great big internets, you just come upon something that reminds you Japanese culture is completely fucking nuts: Fluffy Milk-chan" is a world of affable characters that live a cute and slightly mischievous lifestyle. The heroine is the laid back Fluffy Milk-chan, who has friends such as the fashionable Pink Milk-chan and the trendy Tanned Milk-chan. They're adorable stuffed breasts. You know, for kids. I especially like the comic strips. And does Miss Can Milk have a vestigial nipple?...

Mon, 22 Sep 2008 13:25:36 -0800 Comment by Gloria I kinda like it. Maybe if breasts here were also adorable and harmless (as well as sexy) rather than only, you know, so ridiculously sexualized that a nipple on TV nets you thousnads of dollars in fines, we'd be living in a better place.

Mon, 22 Sep 2008 13:43:23 -0800 Comment by Mikki Bellevue Ave basically IS Pink Milk-Chan. Plus in the gallery where PM-C freaks out about the other one looking like a monster actually happened to us when we first met a couple years ago. I had a spider bite on my lip and looked like a monster, and he told me so.

Mon, 22 Sep 2008 14:02:14 -0800 Comment by SeattleExile @ Erin: I thought that too ... but (thankfully?) "Fluffy Milk-chan" *is* female. From the page: "Fluffy Milk-chan is laid back. She dreams of growing big, but her dream has never come true. Her favorite food is collagen. Her hobby is taking a nap."

Plenty of weird there, but having a male main character that's a boobie isn't the problem. Good luck with the hangover.

Mon, 22 Sep 2008 14:29:34 -0800 Comment by elenchos The problem I see is how Westerners see natural activities like breastfeeding as dirty and shameful. Breastfed toddlers like the breast. I don't find it all that weird that they would like a toy built on that association. At least not until somebody fills them with shame over this silly taboo.

Which is not to say that the Japanese aren't neurotic as hell. They are.

I really want some of these, but it looks like they're still in development.
