It’s the epistemology, **tdn**. _Why_ do most straight men like breasts? And round things in general? Because of its evolutionary association with sex. Sex used to mean babies. Babies mean boobs. Boobs mean sex, even though now sex does not mean babies. ---

I just read Desmond Morris’ “The Naked Ape.” According to him, when we were apes booties turned us on. It makes sense. If you’re walking around bent over on your knuckles you’re gonna see a lot of ass (ah, the good ole days). Now that we are bipeds, we need something up front to catch the eye. Enter the boob. No over animal has developed anything like the breast, a round fleshy mouth-watering pillow. Morris believes that breast clevage mimics anal clevage. There was a series of pictures in Maxim a few years back which challanged readers to tell the difference between clevage up front and clevage in the rear. It was damn hard. And the game was difficult too. Damn I miss my ex-SO… ---

They were singing, “Bum titty bum titty bum-bum-bum”, however. 🙂 ---

**LolaCocaCoca** I don’t believe you. Prove it. …well someone had to say it! 😛 And while we’re talking about the William Tell Overture, don’t forget the chorus, “KNEEEEE! KNEEEEE! Knee Knee Knee Kneeee!” For my two cents. I’m a breast man. I mean, I’ll go for any part of a naked woman, but…errr… nevermind… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/breasts-are-boring-yawn/189915.md?page=2) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/breasts-are-boring-yawn/189915.md?page=4)
