My granddaughter posted this on her facebook page:

"What do boys even find about boobs? They are literally a ball of fat on a girl's chest. Like, if you can love me for the fat on my chest, why can't you love me for the fat on my stomach? You piece of shit."

I don't get it either. In fact, I'd be embarrassed to admit to being so brainwashed by my culture that I obsess about balls of fat on people's chests, so conditioned to find balls of fat sexually stimulating that I spend lots of time, and even money, staring at bare naked balls of fat, and giggle when I see large ones. Ridiculous.

I've heard they are for mimicking the backside. They are on the front to attract men to look at the face more for better pair-bonding. Otherwise men would only want to look at the butt. lol. Thats what you call sexual selection rather than natural selection.

My understanding is that in some African cultures, the breasts are considered to be for babies, and men do not socialize them as sexual attractors.

But then again, as a queer post-op transguy, I'm baffled that anyone finds those balls of fat attractive.

In other animals the breasts pretty much shrink down to nothing if they aren't nursing.
