Boob or boobies is a slang term for female breasts. Boobie or booby used as a term of endearment is derived from the Yiddish term bubele, meaning baby. ...
To me it would not be a compliment, but .... :))

Booby
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The boobies are part of the family Sulidae, a group of seabirds closely related to gannets.
The boobies are large birds with long pointed wings and long bills. They hunt fish by diving from a height into the sea and pursuing their prey underwater. They have facial air sacs under their skin which cushion the impact with the water.
These are colonial breeders on islands and coasts, which normally lay one or more chalky blue eggs on the ground or sometimes in a tree nest. Their name is possibly based on the Spanish slang term bubi, meaning "dunce", as these tame birds had a habit of landing on board sailing ships where they were easily captured and eaten.
Owing to this, boobies are often mentioned to have been caught and eaten by shipwrecked sailors, notably Captain Bligh of HMAV Bounty and his loyalists during their famous voyage after being set adrift by Fletcher Christian and his mutineers.

Boobies means the same thing as breasts. The things women use to give milk to their babies.

Years ago, boobies were underaged women (girls). I think police used the term. Back then, underaged meant less than 21.

I thought the term was more universal than just north american, but in NA, it is a slang expression meaning breasts.

"Shallow" basically means that you judge people on their appearance rather than their personality and feelings. Example: Bob: "I'm only friends with her because she's hot." John: "You're so shallow."
