strange-looking

The human body is so very strange-looking. But from the waist down it is beautiful—so animal-like. It is an education just to look at our body from the waist down—especially the powerful legs. Of course the shoulders and neck—they are beautiful too. And the forearms when they are strong—so animal-like. The breast, even the belly when it is not too big—they are beautiful, as are the strong hands. And the human face, too, has its good points. The eyes are animal-like and beautiful. And the nose, the ears, the cheeks, even the mouth. The human body is so animal like and beautiful above the waist. But so strange below it: the legs are like stilts. We walk like we're walking on stilts.
