I'm guessing the human ones as you'll need to hold them until they're strong enough to hold up their own heads. Maybe then you switch to the horse ones for convenience

[–] moody@lemmings.world 18 points 2 years ago (1 children)

you’ll need to hold them until they’re strong enough to hold up their own heads.

I don't see that happening. Do you have any idea how much a horse, even a baby one, weighs? It's not likely a mother centaur is strong enough to carry her baby to breastfeed it.

[–] andrew_bidlaw@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think if it was the only way, centauri women would have an evolutionary advancement in the muscles of their upper body. Like kangaroos that are used to carry their kids in a belly pocket. And kangaroos punch like a motherfucker.

It would be funny to see all centauri women be built like MMA fighters and men be thin like a matchstick.

[–] moody@lemmings.world 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

They could always lie down to breastfeed like many animals do. That would make more sense.

[–] usualsuspect191@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

That's what I envision; they lay down and hold the human part just like we do now and maybe the colt part stands or lays in a way that helps

[–] andrew_bidlaw@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 years ago

Yep. And if they take this route, then the top body would have flat chests. That's not how many pictures centauri women, but I guess they'd have way less stress looking for a fitting bra.

[–] Liz@midwest.social 17 points 2 years ago

The human half of a baby centaur would be born further developed than a human baby. It wouldn't have the same size and brain limitation that we do. It would probably still be an idiot compared to an adult, but it would at least be able to hold itself upright like a toddler.

I feel like human nipples just because it would be way more convenient. Getting the whole extra torso under the horse body seems like a pain. I need someone to draw both options now so we can discuss.

Eta: wait wait, are centaur babies human baby sized with proportionately small horse parts, or are they baby horse sized with a bigger human parts to match? That could change my answer.

[–] TallonMetroid@lemmy.world 21 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I feel like they should be colt sized, because in most depictions centaurs don't seem to actually have accessible human genitals, so they should be gestating in the horse body and not the human body.

[–] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

But they’re not literally half human half horse, they’re fully centaur.

So there’s no human genitalia or horse body, only centaur genitalia and centaur body. Where the centaur genitalia is on the centaur body could be anywhere, ex. horse based locale dong but human based mammaries.

[–] PsychedSy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Some conversations make me regret being alive.

[–] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

I call that feeling 'waking up in the morning'.

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 31 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Do centaur hoes suck the horse dick or the human dick, respectfully?

[–] Deuces@lemmy.world 41 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Did you see a front penis?

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 15 points 2 years ago

In my dreams I do.

Where do you see the penis?

[–] Sorgan71@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

They suck the horse dick, but fuck the human dick because the horse dick would kill them like it did in enumclaw

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Don't centaurs only have horse dick?

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Do they? Have you seen one dick but not the other?

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I have seen some questionable centaur art. But never have I seen a human dick on a centaur. The horse dick is retractable anyway and centaurs usually don't wear clothes. Especially not where the human dick would attach.

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Maybe the human dick is retractable, too?

Two retractable wangs would make for some excellent questionable centaur art.

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

But human dicks aren't actually retractable. That would then make it more than just part horse and part human.

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'd like to remind you that this is a fictional animal, they can have retractable penises if we want them to.

As someone else here said, centaurs aren't half human and half horse, they're all centaur. They just have the appearance of half human and half horse.

Besides, they're fictional. We can give them retractable dicks if we want to.

[–] AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 year ago

A word I like for discussions like this is "verisimilitude". Aside from being fun to say, it always captures a sense of "yeah, obviously this is fiction, but also we still care about realistic vibes"

[–] nxdefiant@startrek.website 3 points 2 years ago

If you have to ask, you can't afford it.

[–] wewbull@feddit.uk 21 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Human mouths, so they suckle on human nipples. Obvious.

[–] Shenanigore@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Not really. I bet they birth centaur foals, full horse foals, and human infants, and go full sparta on the reverse centaurs. Any of the other three go to the appropriate udder.

[–] Zugyuk@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I would think it depends on whether each centaur is a front end or back end centaur.

[–] detectivesniffles@lemmy.blahaj.zone 20 points 2 years ago (3 children)

what about the fabled full stack centaurs?

[–] Auzymundius@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Let's get a site reliability centaur in here too while we're at it.

[–] fckreddit@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

Wouldn’t that just be full horse or full human?

[–] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 10 points 2 years ago

Human ones, cause lady centaurs wouldn't have boobs if they didn't.

[–] HowManyNimons@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (2 children)
[–] Thranduil@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I dont know. I was under the impression the greek ones are male only but im tol lazy to google it

[–] andrew_bidlaw@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think the writers across centuries made a pact to not picture a female centaur because it leads to a lot questions like that, and it's sexually confusing and can lead to assumptions the writer has a thing for fucking horses.

[–] Thranduil@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

So instead they have a thing for getting fucked by giant horse cocks

[–] MonsiuerPatEBrown@reddthat.com 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

The Centauromachy is a great story with many details but no female centaurs.

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

They suckle from the horse tit. The human tits are for porn and perverts.

[–] EtherWhack@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Whichever is convenient, just like with dogs, cats and other mammals with more than two teats

[–] unreachable@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago
