lonewolfpawprints asked: Exactly, so why assume that the mascot is supposed to be, quote you, "sexy" if breasts are not inherently sexual?
Because of intent. Because of context.
lonewolfpawprints asked: So, you're saying that breasts are inherently sexual, and so adding them is sexualization?
No?
lonewolfpawprints asked: So, why do you focus on the breasts when they aren't any more special than, say, eyes, hair, legs, arms, mouths, etc, other body parts that normally would not be on such things? It's called anthropomorphism.
If you want to draw worm tits cause that’s your thing, far be it from me to stop you, I just find it silly when people design sexy anthropomorphic mascots to sell things like gum.
Anonymous asked: How do you deal with things like worm boobs and pepperoni tits without crying?
There is plenty of crying.
You said that your followers could submit stuff so here I am doing so.
This is a screenshot from the movie “Disco Worms”. In the movie all female worms have boobs and it just looks weird.
This is honest to god, the second time Worm Titties have been featured on this blog.
Several of you have written in to ask me if I remembered the time Orbit gum gave this piece of pizza pepperoni boobs.
I did not.
So thank you for that.

I have never been so personally offended.
Anonymous asked: As stupid as it is, it creates a sense of familiarity and instant understanding with whoever is reading it. Likely, this was meant to be put in a children's book. They wouldn't really care as to WHY the hotdog has tits or whether it's a good idea or not, what they will do is they will look at Alvin the Chipmunk talking to someone else, a girl hotdog.
Nah, it’s a bad design.
Anonymous asked: They couldn't have just given the hot dog tertiary gender characteristics like a pink bow? Or like, NOT GENDERED THE BLOODY HOT DOGS?! Why? WHY ARE THERE TITS ON A HOT DOG?! *cries*
We gotta make sure the kids know this is no homo dog.
Anonymous asked: Well there IS a reason that there is tits on that hot dog. The creator of said hot dog wanted to make sure that it was humanized and recognizable as a female humanization - adding to the characterization of Mrs. Dog. This is achieved through various means: giving her a bun haircut, a handbag, high heels, lipstick, and - yes - tits. All features people commonly associate with being female.
Look. You just can’t convince me that it is a good idea to put tits on this hot dog.
