watched this tiktok and then asked myself why do we have this thing named βbooby trapβ.. fell down a rabbit hole and found out that the word βboobyβ is an old word for a foolish person so a booby trap is a trap that catches a fool
but then i discovered that sailors named this specific bird a booby bird just because theyβre clumsy on land and unafraid of humans, making them very easy to get caught
so booby means fool, a booby trap catches fools, and men are attracted to boobs
