This writer’s attempt to describe a woman’s body went viral and prompted some very funny replies
Writer Alex Ames went viral with this passage from a book she shared on Twitter, an attempt to describe a woman’s physique which is most politely described as … unusual.

‘A pointy chin and hollow cheeks, crowned by prominent cheekbones; and full breasts that visibly strained at the breastbone like two puppies pulling on their leashes in slightly diverging directions.’
It prompted some very funny replies, of which these are our favourites.

Plot twist: she is actually hiding two actual puppies in her bra

Just a suggestion, maybe people should try reading descriptions like these to an actual woman before publishing?

I am having the hardest possible time imagining my breasts doing battle with my breastbone. I guess that why he’s a published author … All that creativity. Ha

He had a square chin with cheekbones like razors, and testicles that visibly strained at the scrotum like a pair of googly eyes startled by something zany. “Goobadeegobidee” they seemed to say with every bounce.

“Vroom, vroom,” his Penis piped up against the restraining cotton-poly blend of his boxer-briefs, “Goobadeegobadee” his Testicles responded jauntily as Jeffrey’s meaty thighs propelled him toward the grocery store.
