A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

They're a secondary sexual characteristic, so it seems like something that would get attention.

You just haven't met anyone like my partner. She pauses movies and TV to point out how my neck "is sexier" than the actor's. "Yours isn't little and thin like his."

"Thanks!"

She is definitely obsessed. Maybe not a fetish, but certainly a point of interest.

Somehow I got a chuckle about how clueless and also pleased you appear in this account. Probably something to do with your line spacing but it felt well told. Nice.

Yes, I'm clueless with regard to others liking or noticing me. My partner sees it and points it out for my benefit. Usually with, "Poor man, never knew he was hot until he met me!"

Everyone should be so lucky to be adored like I am now by my partner. And for things like, "your hands are perfect!"

"They... are? Thanks!"

Definitely the sort of neck I could wear
