    Well, if it’s a lizard woman then she already is a mixture of mammal (human) and lizard - why shouldn’t the secondary sexual characteristics be more on the human side?

        Yeah, they do. Females are larger and in my experience a bit more aggressive across many species, bearded dragons have sex defined coloration, geckoes are one of the easiest groups to determine sex imo considering the males have nearly external testes and larger, broader heads

        What I wanted to say was: if it’s a lizard that shows human traits (speech, walking upright, tool use, human intelligence) why is it bad to add more human/mammal traits like breasts?

          It’s not bad, but I’ve seen it put this way:

          It’s quite easy to believe a species of reptile could conceivably end up standing upright and having a similar body shape to us, as there’s nothing in the defining features of a reptile that are broken by that concept

          But mammary glands (tiddies) are quite literally what makes a mammal a mammal, giving it to a reptile is going to raise a question to those aware of these definitions
