...and boobs are knees.

I’d just like to say that I have seen a ridiculous number of boobs since I got here. Most are flatter than pancakes and hang down to the waist (which is I guess what happens when you don’t wear a bra for 50 years), but any age is welcome to go topless – this weekend, my 14 and 18 year old host sisters in Daagbe were walking around in just shorts. Women whip them out all over the place for a variety of reasons: to feed babies, because they need to use their shirt as a head wrap, because they’re having a hot flash… really any reason is a good one. Probably makes laundry day easier, too.
