Now I've finally found my digital camera, I have a commonet
about that hole lips-as-vulva-mimcry thing.
Do I really look more attractive this way?

NO, but the typo is sooo appropriate! :-)

Tell me that you wrote/spelled that word that way deliberately. It will
totally make my night.

No. But let's pretend for a moment that parts of the female body are
intended to [1] mimic other parts of the female body.
Would we, in that case, expect the most attractive lips to be those
that look most like vulvas and the most attractive breasts to be those
that look most like buttocks?
I'm not so sure.
Might it not make more sense to expect a convergence of what women
look like and what men look _for_? It's to the reproductive advantage
of a woman to look more like a man's ideal mate, but on the other
hand, it's to the reproductive advantage of a man to have a notion of
ideal mate that actually correlates with what's out there.
So, say, female breasts would evolve to be more buttock-like, but at
the same time, male brains would evolve to be more breast-liking.
Convergence would happen until equilibrium is reached, and the point
of equilibrium would probably /not/ be one in which breasts are very
similar to buttocks.
Is this wrong? It might be - I'm no biologist, but I believe we learn
more by playing devil's advocate occasionally.

Make your knight, you mean? (And I take it you refer to "hole", and not
"commonet".)

Or eyeteeth-as-canines.

Well, yes. Like the experiments on birds that demonstrates what they're
*actually* using to recognise their eggs to sit on them. Turns out that for
one species it's the rounded shame and blue spots. So if you give them a
football with bright blue dots on, they'll sit on that even in preference to
their own eggs, because you've overloaded that particular stimulus.
It's certainly plausible that a pair of rounded bumps and the occasional
glimpse of parallel red lines subconsciously interpreted by men as
"receptive female in the vicinity", but you'd need a lot more research
before you can glibly conclude that breasts are replacement buttock-signals.
Ideally, you'd want to come up with a falsifiable hypothesis and test it in
a couple of different species.

I'm puzzled by this question. What do you want us to say - that you look a
right cunt?

_Has_ anyone concluded it? As opposed to proposed it as a hypothesis?
To the best of my knowledge, no-one has.

The purpose of lips is to prevent your mouth from fraying.
