Centaurs are my number one. Like how do their spines work, where are the lungs, and so forth.

Things with spinny tails (like Tails from Sonic and Buizel from Pokemon) also bother me because the tail would break if spun like a helicopter.

I'm the pervert who's always wondered about centaur penises. Do they have a horse dong? A human dong? BOTH? (Do centaurs have threesomes?)

I'd assume a horse penis because it would need to contract into them. Otherwise, that poor thing is probably getting brutalized by low level brush.

There was a duology of books called "Titan" and "Wizard" and there were these centaur-alien-things that had three sets of genitalia. One in front, one in middle, and one in back. They also didn't have to match up, and would have different kinds of sex with each group.

It was weird, man.

Was there another element to the hybrid in addition to the human and horse elements? Why three?

There's 3, because why not?

(Also, the back two are the same on every Titanide - a penis and a vagina. The front one differs from individual to individual. Their biology is kind of complicated.)

It's actually a trilogy, the third is Demon.

Huh. I did not know that. Wee!me who read these in like 4th-5th grade was so traumatized, I definitely wasn't searching for more... pretty sure these books were my introduction to rape as a thing, for example.

... I'm surprised you even got through Titan at that age.

I was not very discerning. I would read almost anything if it was sci-fi and on our bookshelf... and my mom hadn't really remembered what the books were about, so she said it was okay to read them, so I innocently assumed everything was fine.

Some earlier Greek depictions of centaurs had them as normal men with human legs, but with a horse's midsection, butt, and hind legs tacked on in the back. While that raises a whole new host of questions, I'll never forget my old art history professor pointing out that these centaurs could be "double barreled."

I'm fond of the idea in this oglaf comic (nsfw link) http://oglaf.com/heterogeneous/

Fucking centaurs! They have two fucking chests! Makes no sense! Still like them, though.

This is from The Resurrectionist: The Lost Work of Dr. Spencer Black. It has anatomy for all sorts of fantasy creatures.

Haha thanks. Still not sure where all the organs go.

I see how this would work in theory but what I can never really get behind when it comes to centaur anatomy is that sharp bend in the spine between the human part and the horse part.
I also think their bodies would be far too fron-heavy to be properly balanced.

Thanks for mentioning the book. Perfect present for my brother's birthday that's coming up!

Winged humanoids. Wings large enough to let your average human fly would require massive flight muscles, and where do they fit the joints for those wings!? You can't just stick a pair of wings on the back of someone and expect them to be functional without first remodeling their entire torso.

To be honest the latter always bugs me when I see a creature with an extra pair of limbs but no obvious changes to the anatomy to incorporate an extra set of joints!

Also any mythical/magical creature which has a super low population count. How do they remain viable as a reproductive population? Especially if they are confined to a small area.

Wings bug me a bit, too, because I wonder if both the arm and the wing articulate with the scapula (a second glenoid cavity?), or is there another bone in there for the wing to attach to, maybe in closer to the spine and sort of layered over the normal scapula?

But where do the flight muscles attach? Birds have special bones in their chest too in order to have somewhere for the massive muscles needed for flight. I mean, maybe it does explain why angels have big boobs all the time, it isn't fatty breast tissue like in humans but breast muscle for flight like in pigeons.
