Mermaid theory

"300 years ago, sailors stuck at sea would get desperate for female companionship. It got so mad that eventually the manatees out in the water started to look like beautiful women - mermaids.

Every women, no matter how initially repugnant, has a "mermaid clock". The time it takes to realize you want to bone her. " ~ Barney Stinson, How I Met Your Mother

the mermaid theory: Sure today you see Iris as a manatee, but she aint gonna stay that way, Marshall your secretary's mermaid clock starts now..

Mermaid Lesbian

A term for a female, mainly a straight female, who is attracted to other women, but only from the waist up. They can either be sexually or sensually attracted to women, but don't like the sexual parts below the waist.

This term was coined by someone trying to explain how their straight girlfriend was attracted to women, but didn't like vaginas. Thinking of how she loves mermaids, it made sense. The top half is a beautiful woman, and the bottom half has a gorgeous, sleek, colorful tail, with none of the sexual organs to be seen.

1. Oh my gosh, Lady Gaga is so hot, I'd totally make out with her, but I don't want to have sex with her, vaginas are so not my thing. I guess that would make me a mermaid lesbian.

2. I think I might be a mermaid lesbian, I love breasts so much, but when it comes to vaginas I get so grossed out...
