Do you have an anti-human female body POV? Or do you merely hate your own body, and express that through your edits? 69.121.17.228 (talk) 05:50, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
[edit] die Habsburger Unterlippe
My comment left at Marie Antoinette talk page:
Succubus MacAstaroth: Why change from *lip* to *jaw* since both are correct in the description of maxillary prognathism? Here is an excerpt from the Habsburg jaw The condition colloquially is known as Habsburg jaw, Habsburg lip or Austrian Lip (see Habsburg) due to its prevalence in that bloodline.[4] The trait is easily traceable in portraits of Habsburg family members.[...]
- In German, it is called Habsburger Unterlippe http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Habsburger_Unterlippe, and in French lèvre autrichienne.
- Habsburg jaw sounds so harsh! If you want to change, then why not use the more scientific prognathism or maxillary prognathism? If not, then put *lip* back. Frania W. (talk) 15:54, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

- Succubus: This is what I left on MA talk page:
-
- By the way, are not both "Habsburg jaw" & "Habsburg lip" euphemisms for "mandibular prognathism"?
-
- Before writing the above comment, I checked the wiki article on Habsburg jaw, which brings you directly to the section Mandibular prognathism (progenism) in the Prognathism article, in which it is stated: "The condition colloquially is known as Habsburg jaw, Habsburg lip or Austrian Lip[...]". Please note the word "colloquially" in front of the three appellations, while the non-colloquial expression is "mandibular prognathism". So, colloquially speaking, my lip seems to have as much right to be as your jaw ! (^+^)
-
- The reason of giving the various German names -which I should have put in a footnote- was only to show what the condition is called in that language, which happens to be close enough to English for en:wiki readers to understand. MA was from a German-speaking country, so inserting a German expression that describes her condition could not be too foreign to the subject.
-
- Now that we had our little discussion, please feel free to revert to what you prefer. This is not something for which I would go to war.

- Succubus: Please go to Marie Antoinette article & let me know if the change I made resolves our disagreement. Be sure to chek footnote n° 17. Enjoy your weekend! Frania W. (talk) 14:06, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
