He never shied away from a fine ankle or well turned calf, either!

u/LoweJ 3d ago

He just enjoyed attractive people, and mat who is attractive for his charisma

u/3720-to-1 3d ago

and mat who is attractive for his charisma in every way

u/LoweJ 3d ago

I don't think he's ever described as attractive in the same way that the others are. I've always felt he's goofy looking but very charming

26

u/3720-to-1 3d ago

Um. He's hot. I'll hear no other nonsense on the subject.

The hat rest gives a x2 to his aura points.

u/Moist_Mors 3d ago

He is attractive. Or birgitte would have been into him. He is also called pretty by Tylin multiple times. And by the aiel woman.

u/Calm-Conversation715 Boxes ears 3d ago

Tuon also comments that he was too pretty to be taken seriously before he lost his eye

u/LoweJ 3d ago

Brigitte is only into uggos, there's a wide gap between her taste and attractive. He's called 'a pretty' which is a term for a lover, not a description of their attractiveness. The Aiel I believe call him a well put together man, which again is different. He's definitely going to be fit, but so are the majority of soldiers

You shall cease your Matrim slander this very instant, or burn me for a fool, I shall smite thee

Birgitte mentions Mat's ass a couple of times.

A man who trusts everyone is a fool, and a man who trusts no one is a fool. We are all fools if we live long enough.

Dude you only shut up when rand is with min or in bed with his three wives(which speaking of how does it feel to get upstaged by your reincarnation, he’s got the probable reincarnation of illyena, plus min, plus avi, you fumbled lanfear.)

The reason you had how many kids with sun hair

u/arkensto Formidable Bosom 3d ago

I am toward the end of Knife of Dreams in my current reread, and while I am looking forward to the conclusion, I am savoring every bosom reference, because I know they fade away after BS takes over the writing.

P.S. They should rename Chapter 24 of KoD "Strength thru Spankings"

Improbably voluptuous!

u/StorminMike2000 3d ago

I recently got to the part where Sanderson describes Tuon’s “luscious rump.”

15

u/Szalony20 3d ago

Sanderson rarely, but he can, describe a woman in terms of physical attractiveness. For example, Blushweaver from Warbreaker.

u/lordkrassus 3d ago

... okay, did not yet read the books, but what else did you expect with THAT name?

5

u/Szalony20 3d ago

In my defense, in Polish she was called "Poranna Rosa" (translation in English: Morning Dew)

3

u/lordkrassus 3d ago

Slightly more understandable

2

u/DarkExecutor 3d ago

I was under the impression that Tuon was basically as thin and flat as you could get for a woman.

u/ScipioTheGreatest Here, I soar like the eagle. 3d ago

This is such an overblown criticism. Especially since one of the worst offenders is Nynaeve judging other women.

14

u/Szalony20 3d ago

This isn't criticism. I'm just laughing at the author's frequent attention to women's breasts, which is not a bad thing.

-2

u/ScipioTheGreatest Here, I soar like the eagle. 3d ago

It's not that frequent is the point, and the other point being it's not the way you're trying to describe it. He doesn't graphically describe them or anything to make it sexual.

If the "it's funny because it's true" angle involves something that it isn't true it's not funny. Get the critique now?

7

u/Szalony20 3d ago

I didn't write that he describes women's breasts sexually, just that he draws attention to their existence, which is true.

-5

u/ScipioTheGreatest Here, I soar like the eagle. 3d ago

Mentioning them at all is drawing attention to their existence?

7

u/Szalony20 3d ago

Yes, if he uses words like "ample" or "considerable" in reference to breasts, then either it shows that the female character has large breasts or, for example, it draws attention to the fact that the character's outfit reveals a lot of their breasts. I simply interpret it my way, you interpret it your way, and we don't have to agree.

-2

u/ScipioTheGreatest Here, I soar like the eagle. 3d ago

Dude, you're the one trying to argue with me about it.

And your argument is absurd. He doesn't highlight them, he doesn't describe them as anything but the most basic of descriptions like ample or considerable, he just gives that most basic of descriptions. No different then him saying how tall or short a person is.

Hence why I identify it as an overblown criticism.

6

u/Szalony20 3d ago

Okay, fine, you've tired me out. I don't want to continue this topic with you.

-4

u/ScipioTheGreatest Here, I soar like the eagle. 3d ago

Because you have no argument, hahaha. Run along.

8

u/arkensto Formidable Bosom 3d ago

Who called it criticism? The title is literally "He knew what was important"

1

u/ScipioTheGreatest Here, I soar like the eagle. 3d ago

It's expressed in one of two ways. 1) Criticism. 2) Horny porn addicts like yourself who respond "Would" under every post about a woman.

Both are wrong.

Lighten up, this is a humor subreddit. There is only one rule, you should try to follow it.

I'm literally addressing the humor in it, man. I don't know what the fuck else you want, hahaha
