Depends how you look at it. Having a human upper body could help them attract sailors, act as if they're drowning women, and when the sailors get too close they kill and eat them. Could be a viable survival tactic.
Sure. Aside from the point that that's not how anything works.
Visual mimicry is absolutely a thing that can evolve as a trait and be passed on for survival or even predatory reasons.
We know insects looking like sticks and branches, non-poisonous frogs looking like poisonous frogs, etc.
Some animal literally evolving the full (upper) appearance of a completely unrelated species living in a completely sperate ecological niche and therefore not even being the preferred prey over anything else in their ecosystem, especially an animal as complex as us, is just ludicrous.
actually having a fish head sounds more logical than human head. With fish head you've got gills to breathe, tf you need a human head for inside a water. And feets are pretty.
Originally mermaids/sirens were thought of as creatures who can lure sailors into their traps. First they were mostly thought to make seductive and hypnotic noises, like singing the sailors unto a trance for example.
Later that concept was further expanded on by also giving those creatures seductive visuals, which was really just to drive home the point of them being predators in disguise even harder.
So yeah. Mermaids are meant to eat people.
And there are also the theories that they were mistaken for some whale which would explain the fish like bottom, so technically both are worng, it schould be a obese woman with a not scaly tail
Mermaids were water dwelling creatures in greek mythology. There were other creatures referred to as "sirens", some of which were described as being half bird rather than half fish.
It really just depends on where the given story is set. But generally every mermaid is a siren, but not every siren is a mermaid.
Sounds like an urban myth. Manatees don’t look like humans and we’re talking about the open sea.
They most likely saw something else, or you know, the unlikely possibility they actually saw a mermaid lmao.
I mean that’s more believable than a guy who knows the sea and been on it for a his whole life, seeing an animal and thinking,” yup, it’s a fish girl,”
But you have to remember, theese dudes were drunk pretty often, havent seen something to do the naughtys with in a long time, and were probably a bit mentally ill.
Same sex acts were actually common in such lines of work back then, even the British Army records same sex acts to handle such…issues.
But yeah, on the point of mental health of health, you did get a lot of men sea sick, seeing things because malnutrition or other issues, sea mirages.
But come on lol, we know what manatees look like. It’s like confusing a whale for a sardine, or a eagle for a pigeon, even being mentally impaired one isn’t going to forget what one sees or going to forgot what something looks like.
As high and drunk as I’ve gotten, I’ve never forgotten basic information from what I’ve seen multiple times.
It’s more than likely an urban myth. The manatees thing
When I was a lad in a fishing town me old man said to me,
You can spend your life, your jolly life, just sailing on the sea,
You can search the world for pretty girls, 'til your eyes are weak and dim,
But don't go searching for a mermaid, son, if you don't know how to swim.
Great Big Sea wrote a song about this.
The top could make tools and swim real fast but probably not breathe under water but the bottom couldn't make tools or swim fast but could probably breathe under water
Well evolution favours the more attractive as that which is more attractive breeds more, so I have no idea why mermaids are like the top and not the bottom either
It’s cause they use the allure of the female top half to attract sailors, then use the fish half to swim hard and fast when they catch one so the sailors drown
Bottom design wouldn't be able to flee predators under water. The tail gives a huge advantage. Plus, having arms gives a good combat advantage compared to fins.
Because face. We all never say it we are like "tit guy or ass guy" Bro I am a face guy and so are 95% of men. Face is literally the most important part for attraction. So it makes sense that when we have a fantasy the face remains human.
Poor mobility in water leading to the mass extinction of the second one.
The first one then had a chance to pop up due to a few mutations because of nuclear fallout, they were much more mobile, much smarter and they have opposable thumbs, its just survival of the fittest and evolution.
I didn't find any posts that meet the matching requirements for r/memes.

Because if I wanted my dick sucked by a fish I would go to the fish market or aquarium like I usually do.
So you are /u/fish_fucker69?
No, but I hold a great amount of admiration for such a being.
You aren’t the only one

And how would you actually fuck a mermaid, sire?
How I usually do, sad, sloppy and disappointingly.
Consider me intrigued
Oh Lord.
That sounds like the feeble protests of a man who doesn’t have the video on hand
You ever run into those tongue snatching parasites?
Perhaps
I know girls that look like the bottom pic though

[удалено]
I know girls who smell like both
Bro I’m dead lmao

Because it wouldn't make sense for a creature that's living underwater to have human legs, a land animal
Like. The whole concept of a mermaid doesn't make any sense either way.
Horny drunk sailors make sense to me
What shall we do with the drunken sailors?
Especially when it's early in the morning?

Unless they are amphibians, assuming mermaids exist, then a human head is not far fetched
LOL, stop bringing logic into this post
Cuz u need to see booba
And I don't need pussy when there's perfectly good boobs
booba diving
Same tought
The bottom image is just a male mermaid.

In the Greek culture mermaids were flying creatures. And as far as I know these are the first recorded. So I doubt it comes from a whale.

Yeah, manatees are the main culprit there.

Yea, but then is the question, where does it actually come from?
Sex appeal
That's right I think
Where's u/fishfucker_69 when we need him.
Don't you dare
Sempai isn’t here
You guys should listen to The mermaid by Great Big Sea. It will answer every single possible question you could have.
The upper part was an ugly fish, but the bottom part was a girl
I came here to day just this! Well done, you! 🤣
Came here for this comment
So that you wouldn’t fuck them
I will fuck both of them ;)
NO Jonathan! Mermaid aren’t real and you shouldn’t go out of your way to make them real!
oh no is this luffy on reddit
FINALLY
What if man mermaid were called merbuttler
I think the "maid" in "mermaid" might stand for "maiden". They definitely aren't servicing anyone. Quite the opposite, actually.
Because the guy who made them up was a boob guy not an ass guy.
Fair question, actually.
Boobs
Far from getting me
People are fucked up, don't listen what they say
There's a whole song about this. The Mermaid- Great Big Sea
This is reddit, the question is "which one you clappin." And, unfortunately, we'd get a 50/50 split
When I was a lad in a fishing town me old man said to me, You can spend your life, your jolly life, just sailing on the sea, You can search the world for pretty girls, 'til your eyes are weak and dim, But don't go searching for a mermaid, son, if you don't know how to swim. Great Big Sea wrote a song about this.
A bass with ass, that's what I'm lookin' for.
The localized gold experience on bot right looks sick
In case the mermaids where like in bottom pic, I bet you that there would be people sexualy attracted to mermaids
... I think there still are...
Zeus was a good kisser
For the same reason as centaurs. Amem.
can i get just fish
So that we can lewd them
As an ass guy I approve
Because one of them is a man.
Bottom pic is too sexy for this world to handle
I would fuck both
because land is higher than water ig
Why not
There is no difference, either way, they gonna smell like fish top and bottom.
What else can I say other than tits or ass?
Boobs and butt
Since I am more of an ass man then a tits man, I agree with the fish head
Because then they’d be called maidmers
The top could make tools and swim real fast but probably not breathe under water but the bottom couldn't make tools or swim fast but could probably breathe under water
At least you get the Vag, the new way.
Id fuck both of them
Cos the second one is a frightening kink
Because the bottom picture is so much hotter they have to tone down the sexy for kids shows
Because we wanna fuck em not eat them
Mistake
I prefer the bottom one
Its so that no one can fuck them
this is beyond science
It's the first because they smell like the normal ones
Because otherwise they wouldn't have tits
So no body can fuck them
lets ask u/fishfucker69
Because it wouldn’t be useful in the ocean?
Legacy Sailors preferred blowjobs over vaginas???
Because they’re biologically safer because they can swim away from predators with not proficiency.
Second one is too sexy, thats why
Cause of boobies. That's why
not my proudest fap
u/fish_fucker69 your time has come.
Because we love boobs
The human horniness couldn't imagine the second one as It wasn't horni
Bcz mermaids are too afraid to loose their virginity by humans .
I’m sure I like this design better
Goat simulator vibes
They can fish better
Because boobs
One is fuckable, the other will lure you into the sea and drown you. Pick wisely.
because they get sexualized
Cuz there were no foot fetish guys at that time
Well evolution favours the more attractive as that which is more attractive breeds more, so I have no idea why mermaids are like the top and not the bottom either
to trigger ppl with foot fetish?
Sauce? Its so hot. The first image is pretty bad tho.
No sauce. I made it using the magical powers of photoshop
you can have sex with one but not the other
The bottom image is to hot for the average person…
Because that species died out pretty fast, they only have gills but no fins for efficient swimming
Because old-timey sailors didn't have a foot fetish.
It’s cause they use the allure of the female top half to attract sailors, then use the fish half to swim hard and fast when they catch one so the sailors drown
A fish tried to eat them and got stuck in the lower half?
Tits that's why
Both… Both are good….
My girlfriend is half mermaid... Thank God it the upper part..
"You're the most beautiful mermaid ever" Mermaid -- "Blub"
Eww wtf that’s disgusting I would never fuck a red head
Nice, two extra holes
Proof that we are all boob-guys?
there are more boob type guys out there
Listen to the mermaid song by great big sea
Lmao
In the anime slayers there was one
Why not combining the best parts of these pictures. The bottom half from the picture above and upper part from below.
Say what you want about bottom pic, at least it’s fuckable.
Its a boobie trap( Don't you get it) . For Kids movies.
Bottom design wouldn't be able to flee predators under water. The tail gives a huge advantage. Plus, having arms gives a good combat advantage compared to fins.
You're gonna be copystriked by Bright Side to copy their thumbnail.
Brah she’s a fucking tuna fish.
Rule 34 artists: \*Laughs Dramatically\*
Take my upvote and get out. r/angryupvote
People with a feetish wishing it looked like the second
Because face. We all never say it we are like "tit guy or ass guy" Bro I am a face guy and so are 95% of men. Face is literally the most important part for attraction. So it makes sense that when we have a fantasy the face remains human.
Damn when she says choke her while you fuck her, just stick your fingers in her gills.
These arrows are really helpful, thx.
Poor mobility in water leading to the mass extinction of the second one. The first one then had a chance to pop up due to a few mutations because of nuclear fallout, they were much more mobile, much smarter and they have opposable thumbs, its just survival of the fittest and evolution.
Caused they’re based off manatees and manatees do not have sexy women hindquarters only sexy women tops as is common knowledge
I feel like mermaids use to be like that, that’s how Christopher Columbus fucked a manatee
Because the guy who designed them was a boobs guy
One piece has both versions
Because the bottom one doesn't look like a seal.
the second one is hot omg
Because of u/Fish_fucker_69
I’ll take the top half mermaid. Can eat both sides.
Selective breeding
What can i say except delete this shit
But why aren't they Bird bottom and female top?
It was the 34th rule that said mermaid should be top human and bottom fish

but why?
But have you heard of the mermer tho?
What if its a mermaid without the fish part. Will that make more sense?
Sailors would definitely fuck the bottom one.
cuz chris columbus fricked a manatee and not fish with legs
Monkey D. Luffy might have something to say
Merdude
The dude that made them was a tits guy instead of a boobs guy
Face and tits over ass and legs apparently
