The average person has one boob and one testicle.

[-] GraniteM@lemmy.world 88 points 5 months ago

Slightly less than one boob and one testicle. Just like the average person has slightly less than two legs.

[-] GnomeKat@lemmy.blahaj.zone 36 points 5 months ago

Some of us have 2 boobs and 2 testicals :)

[-] huginn@feddit.it 29 points 5 months ago

And some have 0 boobs and 0 testicles. Gender affirming care probably evens out

[-] MeDuViNoX@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 months ago

Won't someone think of the ovaries!?

[-] Spaghetti_Hitchens@kbin.social 23 points 5 months ago

The average person has slightly more than one skeleton inside of them

[-] RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.works 22 points 5 months ago

IDK, there's slightly more women than men, it may skew the results

[-] ASeriesOfPoorChoices@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

and women who have had mastectomies.

[-] RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.works 4 points 5 months ago

That's kinda my point. Mastectomies would bring the average down but more women brings it back up. Too lazy to Google but is global # of women who have had mastectomies more or fewer than # of "excess" women (over men)

[-] daltotron@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

Well are we just equalizing based on boob number, or are we also equalizing based on average boob size? Because some men also have boobs due to hormonal imbalance, and that's even more if we decide to count like, fat induced moobs for whatever reason. The hormonal imbalances at least would probably bring the average back in favor of slightly more than one boob. If we've equalized it to boob size then we'd probably all have like small A cups or something.

What about fat guys? Does that up the average?

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 10 points 5 months ago

No, those are moobs.

I was thinking about this in terms of limbs, and wondering, since pregnant women have more than 4 limbs, wouldn't the average number of limbs be greater than 4?

There are probably considerably more pregnant women than people missing limbs, but then again, the women only have additional limbs for 9 months.

Glad to know I'm driving that leg median up !

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago

I dunno. My buddy Kyle has like 10 legs. 9 of them are prosthetic, but they all count.

[-] postmateDumbass@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago
[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

I'll have to ask Kyle. I consider him my authority on what's a leg.

[-] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 2 points 5 months ago

he has a leg up on everybody else

[-] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 2 points 5 months ago

You must be pulling my legs

[-] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago
