    Climbers answer "because is is there".A non answer. The reason they climb it is because mountains peaks resemble the nurturing shape of breasts. Its a sub conscious calling

    Same way girls in school play hockey. the stick being a phallic symbol.
    Boys play rugby with an ovary shaped ball..

    you get me?

    There's a small part of me that wants to, you glorious mad bastard :D, but you'll have to add more to get me on board. Now if you had mused that men climb mountains because it tests them and by surmounting(no pun) that test they telegraph their suitability to the opposite sex so they may mount them(pun intended) I might have been with you.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Hovering over the post before clicking into the thread, I fully expected the OP to have a join date of Mar 2017 and a post count of 1.

    As a very suave french man once said to me when comparing me to his fondness for climbing said mountains: "It's useless, and that's the beauty of it."

    There's a pair of mountains in North Mayo known by locals as 'the Dollys'. Because they look like Ms Parton's ample bosom. :pac:

    Breasts remind men of their moms and the nurturing of childhood. The safest place in the world. I've seen men cry when they have reached the summit. They don't understand why but I do

    Because you are still in your childhood too.

    I think they prefer the term 'spelunkers'.

    So yeah, that quote is George Mallory. It didn't end well for him.

    "Moms"? I'm not from America(or apparently South Kerry) and had a mam so that might make a diff.

    On the OP's reckoning I'm more a spelunker than a mountaineer. Calling Dr Freud? Plus I figure that if I'm scaling a boob and feel the need to plant a flag in same, she's defo a big lass.

    OP does have a point.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breast-shaped_hill

    Such hills were often associated with mother goddesses. Irish kings were inaugurated atop mountains, where they symbolically 'married' the land

    I read a book about Edmund Hillary. He and Sherpa Tenzing were the first documented climbers of Everest.

    Fascinating to read about both men. Hillary for instance was a massive cigarette smoker at the time of the climb, a 40 a day man.

    Its said that a smoker might be at an advantage at altitude in that they are already used to having less oxygen in their blood from smoking. So when they climb to over 8,000m the effects of the altitude and less oxygen available to the lungs does not impact them as hard as it does on a non-smoker.

    When they got into the death zone, 26,000 feet, he used to take off his oxygen mask to smoke his fag.

    He also smoked a couple at the summit.

    There definitely could be something there about what you say about smokers.
