BREASTS

Mammary  glands are a defining feature of mammals, but some humans are unique in granting them a large sexual role. From my limited experience in watching dogs and cattle fornicate, all mammals I have never seen even the remotest interest in the breasts or the nipples. The full plump bosom seen in the human ape is an anomaly and no other primate has a permanent breast. During feeding all the ape species have a full breast to store milk. In other non-humans  a full breast is an indication that the female is suckling young. In humans young girls develop full sized breasts even before menstruation but this is not an indication of a breast ready for milk production ,and it is common knowledge bigger breasts do not necessarily produce more milk. A well rounded buttocks and a plump breast is a direct stimulation to the male human species and is distinct appearance from the male species.

The woman`s sensory cortex has three distinct areas corresponding to stimulation of the clitoris, vagina and cervix. Researchers found to their surprise that self stimulation of the nipples, or in sex, affects the same areas in the brain. This is due to the release of oxytocin. Masters and Johnson pointed out that breast volume increases during sexual arousal. In doing research in different cultures breasts are not as important. In 1951 a study of 191 cultures, anthropologist Clellan Ford and ethologist Frank Beach reported that breasts were considered important in only 13, and of those 9 preferred large breasts. Two the Azande and Ganda of Africa found long pendulous breasts to their liking. and another two, the Maasai and Manus of South Africa liked breasts that were upright but not necessarily large. From a cultural viewpoint men are not necessarily drawn to breasts, as trained from an early age to find them erotic and the attraction varies with the culture.
