    The size of the breast is irrelevant, the size of the girl is everything

    I wonder if there is any evolutionary advantage to larger breasts. AFAIK, there’s no difference in their ability to deliver milk to babies. And smaller breasts probably have an advantage in a woman’s movement and agility, not to mention avoiding back pain. Humans also seem to be the only animal that has larger breasts than necessary – OTOH, humans are also the only mammal that walks upright, so there are other biological differences.

    If it’s the case that the only evolutionary reason for large breasts is to better attract (some) men, that would be interesting.

      It’s not like large breasts are more common than not large (unless you mean anything larger than nothing at all). I suspect there was a random mutation, and it didn’t hurt their reproduction chances but it didn’t help either. So you end up with a variety of breast sizes.

        For some reason, only one ape species ever has non-small breasts. You never get large breasted gorillas, chimpanzees or bonobos even though they share 98% of their DNA with us. What is it about humans that means that that trait was evolutionarily advantageous? It’s obviously a feature with significant disadvantages, so what is the advantage that offsets that for humans in a way that it doesn’t for other great apes?

      Milk cows have larger breasts than necessary, but that’s from artificial breeding rather than any sort of evolution or adaptation.

    I’ve got a question for you. What’s heavier, a kiogram of coins or a kilogram of bills? That’s right a kilogram of coins, because coins are heavier than bills

    Damn. I always felt bad enough for women with big boobs having to deal with the back pain, but I never considered that they might jingle, too.

    One can be folded into oragami. The other can be shot from a slingshot. I am truly enlightened.

      The Dollars are light and graciously accepted by the cashier, but do not gratify the hand in its heft and presence. The coins are heavy, and bestows immediate gratification to the weighing extremities; nonetheless the cashier will be enraged at the prospect of counting the cost.

      Read that again.

      As do I, but I can also see the hate they get. One of my partners ended up getting a reduction from like DDD to B and she’s much happier and is better physically for it. My wife kept her DD and they’re great too.

      As I’ve gotten older, I’ve come to terms that big tiddies and small tiddies are both still tiddies, and tiddies are fun to play with no matter the size.
