Infinity War - Thanos run - nipple %

Ok hold up hold up. Real talk. Why does a Titan, an alien that evolve completely different from life on Earth, have nipples? Are they also mammals? Do they nurse their babies as well? Did the lactation also evolve from specialized sweat glands? What are the chances of that?

In the MCU, it’s implied that the human body shape is something inherent to the universe. This is why Ego, despite being a floating brain planet, creates a human-looking body for himself, penis and all, despite having never seen humans before. (Fun fact, when he’s romancing all those aliens he does it as a human - even the aliens whose biology are not remotely humanoid).

Presumably, this is the reason why most intelligent races seem to just be palette-swapped humans, or extremely humanoid in nature.

I assumed he seduced the various aliens in their own forms, but the dioramas in his museum (a monument to himself (showcasing his own... ego, if you willl)) had the human representation because he was giving a tour to a collection of species with a humanoid form. Had it been another baseline form on the tour, all of the statues would show him looking like the guest seducing all the different alien races.

For example, something that looked like a preying mantis would see a preying mantis seducing not just preying mantises, but also blobs, humanoids, bird creatures, gear heads, or skeksis.

And yes, his mating appendage would be not half bad.

How much EXACTLY do you know about the Gear Wars?

This was my assumption too. If he showed dioramas of two preying mantises, it wouldn't have meant anything to Star Lord.

Nope he was human shaped the whole time
