Pear-apple?

A woman? --Rosswood40 21:38, 27 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Cryptic? --EncycloPetey 21:38, 27 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, a well deserved barb, no, I just wondered if we could use pear as a noun for woman as well as the recent pear-apple shapes of body theory.--Rosswood40 21:54, 27 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

It may not have the same medical implications, but I don't see why the word couldn't be used that way. It's already used to describe male body shape as well as the face shape of both genders. --EncycloPetey 22:09, 27 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Shape[edit]

Asian pears (nashi) are the same shape as apples. Siuenti (talk) 20:13, 5 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
