While it is by no means Scientific Truth[sup]TM[/sup] yet, **Desmond Morris** ’ theory is that female breasts resemble the female bum, so to speak. As man started walking upright, the visual aspect of a woman’s behind became less apparent, as opposed to viewing it from an on-all-fours position. Therefore, the breasts, closer to eye level as they are in a standing position, evolved to mimic the shape of a female butt.

I don’t care if it’s true or not, it’s one hell of a piece of bar trivia.

I’ll leave you with this gem by **Denis Leary** :

> [@](#):

> _I also wanna make an announcment, that I am pro-tit all the way. President Leary is pro-tit all the way. I love tits. I would like to be the mayor of Tit Town if I could. I’d like to drive a big truck full of tits down the Tit Turnpike right through the middle of Tit Town. I’d like to have my own talk show about tits, Tit Talk. That’s how passionate I am about the tits, I love 'em all. I actually love the small tits better than the big tits because the big tits get all the attention. The peach and plum little hand-shaped tits, they’re great. I love to look at 'em. “How ya doin!” talk to ‘em, "What’s goin’ on? Look at me! I’ve got my face next to a tit!" Men are mollified by tits. We don’t know why, we just are. We don’t have to see naked tits to get mollified, we just freeze up even at the sight of cleavage. Waitress leans over the table the wrong way… That’s how we can end war. Get the Good Year blimp, paint it up like a tit, put a nipple on it. Fly it over the Middle East during a confrontation, “Look at the tit! Look at the tiiiiit! The tiiiiiiit! The tiiiiiiit!”_

Y’know, this seems to et asked every month at least, and I’ve lready replied to the basic question Why do Guys like Breasts withi the last four weeks, so I shouldn’t have to do it again fo a while. You might want to check the Search feature on this.

On the other hand, I don’t mind talking about boobs. Neither, judging from the post and view counts, do a lot of other folks.

If I could express the wonder at the beautiful lines, and wonderful textures, and all of the erotic responsiveness involved with “boobs”…I wouldn’t be allowed to post.

Love 'em all…small to big.

Think it is something that is hardwired. Objectively…we shouldn’t be so nuts over them. My lady friends have expressed puzzlement over what they regard as just parts of their bodies…like they are nothing special. I sure can’t understand that!

Oh Yah!

**We’ll** be the judge of that, young lady. You realize of course, that you are now required to post photographic evidence. As a cite, of course.

How did **Duckster** post this on the first page of a 2 page post? 😕

Personally, I’m not a breast man, which of course means that I still think they are great. I just don’t go _ape shit_ on sight. I must also add that Anna Nicole does nothing but make me cringe. \<cringe smilie\>

He probably changed the number of posts per page down from 50.

Well, I had hoped to avoid being colored a cad by abstaining from this thread but I can’t help it anymore. I really really like em. And I haven’t touched a pair in 5 years. Anyone wanna help me out here?

[bud bundy] I’d respect your mind more if it bounced gently when you walked! [/bud bundy]

Blech!  
I never understood why people found bouncing boobies attractive. When I see that “girls on trampolines” bit, all I think of is “Good God, but that must hurt!”. Not to mention that excessive bouncing will only lead to excessive sagging.

Let’s keep the boob’s of the world un-bruised and firm.

My two year old cousin, Andrew, is already a boob guy. He never breast fed, but he still grabs anyone’s boobs any chance he gets - just like his daddy!
