That is the correct spelling of "locust," a flying insect related to the grasshopper.

Why are males so fascinated by female breasts?
Oddly enough, all the prior contributions were dealing with breast size, or how bad guys are, or how they are not so bad. As to the question itself, there were no answers addressing it.
Breasts are a secondary sex characteristic of women, and it is theorized that they developed to indicate that a woman was sexually fertile. While men are attracted to breasts in general, no concrete answer besides that has been found.
In essense, it is like asking why men are attracted to women, or why roses smell like roses. Until the scientists learn something new, the answer is "they just are".
they arent. they are a part of the body that needs to be there not for people to touch all over and play with.
What does a grasshopper look like?

Locust do not have simple eyes. They have compound eyes that allow them to look in different directions at once.
Is locust wood toxic if burned?
I have heard that it is, but cannot confirm it.
The reason given is that the same substance that keeps it
from rotting (a toxin to bacteria) is toxic to us as well.
Bottom line: locust firewood is far more useful in a wood
heater than a fireplace. One can heat a home with a
heater, but only a small room with a fireplace!
And besides, all smoke/fumes from wood-burning are
toxic in an enclosed area. I hope this helps someone.
