No, no- you’ve already told me safety pins don’t bother you- _heaves a bolt of fabric across the room_ (I’ve been working on costuming _Death of a Salesman_.)

Pah!missed by miles… throws like a girl…  
In order to research this topic,I’ve gone back and found your pics and have found myself strangely drawn to the boob area. The boobs don’t appear to be shy towards men.In fact they appear to be making every effort to come forth and greet me 😃

To return to the subject, I have noticed that my boobs are not very picky. They like anything that rubs up against them. Men, sweaters, dogs, even doctors. Makes no difference to the boobs. They are brainless tits, but I’m attached to 'em.

And a referee! 😉

Serially, though, if the OP is really asking why boobs like male attention or females are attracted to males, isn’t it obvious? Boobs are secondary sexual characteristics, and the attraction is similar to that of primary sexual characteristics.

Although I suspect society’s expectations are a greater factor to secondaries than mammaries…, uh,… I mean, primaries.

Boobs like me because I operate on the theory that if the girl they’re attached to isn’t enjoying herself, then I won’t get free rein anymore.
