    C'mon Wibbs, we all need to know what the migrating clitoris is all about. I guessing that a google search in work would be a bad idea.

    I tell you solemnly, it would be a fantastic name for an all-girl thrash metal outfit.

    Oh and, tits. Yes indeed, I love tits. From elegant, pert little champagne glasses to almighty pendulous garbonzas. :D

    Don't forget that many men have breasts. I see them everyday. Fat blokes with perfect little titties jiggling around beneath their Star Wars t shirts.

    larger breasts dont produce more milk. Breast size is irrelevant to milk production.

    I know, darling: but men seem to have a proportionate reaction to their appearance. That bigger = better.

    I dunno, ask the men why they prefer big ones!

    as i said earlier this is quite a recent phenomenon. "bigger is better" is a minority opinion historically.

    So my love of big breasts is a social construct!?! My life is a lie!

    Did anyone actually watch all of that video? It was generally quite interesting but I got fed up with it about half way through. I reckon he had a bet with a mate on how many times he could say 'breasts' in one video.


    Guys watch the video ..its mad but its interesting.

    Its all about us women hiding stuff and lying to our advantage!

    Do we have any original thoughts of our own at all?

    Watch some of his other vids. I follow him on youtube. I don't think he'd be the sort to have a bet on like that.

    Its not watch the video ...apparently breasts are liked by everyone in every culture ....worldwide even cultures where women go topless ....they are still liked ..and not just men like them ..women like them ..and babies of course like them.

    Breasts are actually attractive to babies. Its not just the feeding.

    Yeah that's why ...nothing to see here ..don't believe the man saying breasts would lie ....would these lie to you??

    This is the best pro breast argument i've seen this morning so far

    there is the what now?
    :D yeah. Basically in other great apes and mammals the clit is directly stimulated by intercourse, in humans it's not. It appears to have moved away from that, which makes no obvious sense. One hypothesis goes that it moved as a way to check if a man would take extra care and attention to a woman's pleasure. Such a man would be likely a better bet for raising kids in a pair bond as he would be more aware of others than a three pump chump.
    Not really sure but it is a very modern one. Even 100 years ago flat chests were looked upon more favourably.
    Indeed. What's considered attractive in women varies quite a lot by culture and time. There are certain fundamentals like clear youthful skin, glossy hair, big eyes, small jawline, larger forehead, hip waist ratio, but outside that it can be quite variable. You see this in the wets with its rapidly changing culture, a "pinup", the ideal of even a generation ago is less the ideal of today. Different sexual characteristics are the focus too. EG at the moment big arses are a thing, at least the arse is the focus. Look at all the Instagram dolly birds pouting for the camera contorting themselves to stick out their arses. In say the 90's it was more about the stomach of lack of it, all four packs and belly tops. Breast focus comes and goes too and even within that you have variability. So it was quite the thing in the 1960's but so was the waif look and Twiggy.

    Can even be class and subculture based. So in the UK Page 3 of the Sun with the big bazongas was aimed at the working class, the middle and upper classes were less breast focused. The current big arse thing comes from US Black(Baby's got back) and Latin American culture.

    On the other hand; what is seen as the ideal for men hasn't varied much from Classical times. A big mad ride of a man from Ancient Greece would have knicker elastic popping today.

    Many worry about Artificial Intelligence. I worry far more about Organic Idiocy.

    but not large breasts. bigger is not better in every culture. Bigger was not always better in our own culture until relatively recently.

    Never was a breast type of man myself. Not the comically large ones anyway. C cup or less would be more my vibe. The big ones generally don't look so good unfettered and don't age well either.

    Good stuff. More stuff about women being devious. Weird the way you embrace that sh1t. Bit self loathing?

    All fetuses are originally female a hormone is released to make them male. Nipples are left over from before that in the womb.

    Not quite. All fetuses develop from the same blueprint until around 7 weeks when the y chromosome, if there is one, will kick in and cause the males to develop into males. The sex has already been decided from the moment of fertilisation, so the males were never females, they just develop the same until a certain point

    Nothing like a bit of titilation ;)

    Pert and firm, not wibbly wobbly please.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,482 ✭✭✭Gimme A Pound


    How can breasts not be some degree of wibbly wobbly given what they're comprised of.

    Some lads don't have first hand experience of said breasts.

    When it comes to breasts, some lads only have hand experience.

    Breasts are beautiful things and should not be hidden away under bras and clothing, they should be exposed and in full view of all except for ugly or fat women, theirs should be hidden at all times.

    Ah c'mon now they can't be out the whole time

    That's how you end up with upsidedown-triangle national geographic titties


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,481 ✭✭✭Iscreamkone


    Aren't breast reduction operations a crime against something?
