    @davidnjoku Dunno why but in German we have an expression "an ass/a butt with ears" ("Arsch mit Ohren") and somehow that popped into my head

      @DrorBedrack to hell with political correctness: I'm asking the big questions. I don't care who it shocks! 🤣

        @davidnjoku If ears are face then earmuffs are masks.

        I voted no, but I'm now thinking about animals whose ears stand up on top of their heads, especially if they face forward and maybe even move, changing the look of their face.

          ears do convey expression and do interact with the facial/vocal muscles, so yes. Ears are absolutely part of the face.

            @davidnjoku I went with no, becasue while I"m comfortable with my cauliflower ears, I'm not sure I'd feel as good about having cauliflower face.

              @davidnjoku

              Forehead, temples, cheeks, jaw - the outer edges?

              Top of head, hmm?, ears, side of neck, under-jaw, throat - next to the human face?

                      @davidnjoku Having had relatively extensive reconstructive surgery on my right leg after a car nearly killed me, I can answer this one! The answer is 'no', because medically-speaking your leg is only the bit from the knee down.

                      It makes slightly more sense if you think about animal legs and how they're articulated.

                          Having raised three girls I have explained there's an area where the leg ends and the ass begins and if we have to debate which it is the skirt is TOO SHORT.

                            Right! It depends on how low it hangs 👍

                                  That only accounts for the “knee joint + tibia + fibula”. What about the “femur” thigh bone, isn’t that part of the leg?

                                    Anatomically, your “bum” is 2 sets of major muscles attaching your “pelvis” hip bone to the upper part of your “femur” thigh bone. While it is not part of the skeleton, without it we would _not_ be able to walk/run/climb/etc.
