YOU AND BLUE

[Fatal_S]

if I had REAL Ladies boobs, I'd never leave the house

I'm with you 100%!

I will never understand the male obsession with boobs. Useless things. At least male floppy bits can be used for fun ^.^ Boys, u guys are so weird.

Boobs are natures way of saying, "Look, I'm a female!".

They serve no other function besides attracting male attention.

Can you think of any other function?

I still think they're just waiting for the right time to smother us in our sleep.

In other news, this thread is so far past a G rating...

Breasts have nothing to do with breast feeding. Nipples and mammary glands serve that function.

"Breasts have nothing to do with breast feeding."

Let's have a show of hands from everyone who can see a problem with that statement. And fatal is correct. We lost the G rating when the toy discussion landed.

[NomadOfTheHills]

It's called breast feeding, but its really an incorrect term. If breasts were related to breast feeding, than women with A cups would not be as successful as those well endowed with DDs.

I'm trying to keep this at the evolutionary/ biological level.

I removed the inappropriate post. Jelot, please re-think your posts in the future.

Nomad, the breasts fill with milk and become large during pregnancy. Without breasts, I suppose the milk could be stored in the lungs?

Thank you Zach

That's the thing though, the breasts themselves are just adipose tissue, milk is not stored in the breast, it is produced and secreted as a result of suckling.

There is one theory that states that breasts evolved to prevent suffocating infants on a flat chest, as our jaws became flatter, breasts got bigger.

I'm not so sure of this theory, as if this were the case, breasts would swell during pregnancy, like they do, but in every other ape/primate, swelling is only present during the time the young suckles, and once weaned, the "breast" disappears.

On a documentary on discovery channel, I heard a theory about how we evolved breats to attract males as we become more upright. We did this because as we became upright the males no longer looked directly at our arses, so we needed a new way to attract them. Voila, boobs.

[Zach]

Sounds like a good theory! Although the boo-tay is not totally out of the picture, is it?

Nomad, I don't think milk is produced at the second the baby suckles. Milk has to be stored for whenever the baby is ready to feed. Hence the large breasts. Do any women disagree with that? Am I wrong?

[NomadOfTheHills]

Not the moment, but in general it isn't stored, and if it is, not very much.


Fatal, yes, I've heard that theory. In most apes, the female has swelling down there, and it attracts male attention to ovulation.

As people began walking upright, breasts are theorized to have evolved to look similar to the vulval swellings of female apes.

One would have to surmise that milk is stored somewhere because the more you breast feed the more milk there is. Hasn't anyone ever been around a lactating mother and seen them leak because it's past feeding time or when they hear a baby cry? Kinda puts a dent in the stimulation by feeding theory.

[Zach]

What do you say to that mr. mom! (Nomad)

[NomadOfTheHills]

They store some in the ducts, but its not like the whole breast is used for storage, where would it be stored? Breasts are primarily adipose tissue lol...
