  • they are in every culture currently on the planet except for some very few tribes.

    • I read somewhere that the Minoans preferred shoulders to breasts.

    • in ancient japan, being "dressed" was seen as more sexy than being naked :D cause they were working naked all day.

    • Interesting. I read a sci-fi book with the same premise.

  • I voted D.

    • Guys love boobs, they’re the softest part of the woman’s body, you girls get erections there, and they get sensitive when they get touched when your bra is off or guys reach their hands inside your bra.

  • We don't know. Lots of theories, and some are very respectable. But we still have no idea.

    • What do you think?

    • I think it's all of those

    • Yeah. And something deeper I think too

  • Evolutionary theory says bosoms
    Are buttock-like protrusions
    Designed to tempt men
    In situations when
    They can't get a glimpse of your bum
    I find such hypotheses dumb
    It's like the one that says
    Lipstick is for making your lips look more
    Like the lips of a happy vagina
    Since they said that, I can't
    Look my great aunt in the eye
    Why'd they have to say that, oh why?

    From the first little suck of colostrum
    To the grope of the nurse in the old people's hostel
    We're just fucking monkeys in shoes

  • Japan is pretty Eastern

    • Although in certain cases they can be looser with nudity.

  • I blame the dumbass prudes

  • It's a secondary sex characteristic, which naturally becomes sexually appealing to the opposite gender.

  • Pretty sure biology did that, not our culture.

  • Breasts are a sign of sexual maturity

    • True

  • Well I don't understand exactly what you mean by sexualized, but I think we are all sex, and breasts are specially sex charged because of everything you exposed.
    On my opinion sex is a type of energy and can be transmitted with almost everything, but there are elements which have the sexual energy attached to them, cock, tits, breasts, ass... Are physically related to sex, so I don't think it's just the culture.

    There are other elements, like feets or necks which can be sexually charged but I see them more culture or education related, that's my opinion.

  • Can u message me again?

  • They're a secondary sexual characteristic. Beyond the West.

  • Because breast are covered up, ankles where sexualized at one point

  • Because they're part of a woman's body. Every part of women's bodies is sexualized.

  • It's hard to say? I don't know... they can be touched, fondled, and sucked on while being intimate, maybe even other things. And it can be used for baby feeding which is very important for the baby. Some guys love boobs, some dont. I only care for them when I'm either horny or being intimate.

  • Bcos everyone loves boobs. Everyone loves seeing them. Boobs come in various sizes and each of those sizes and loved.

  • I think its because they look good.

    • Makes sense

  • Cuz men love breasts

  • Maybe because they can be an erogenous zone

  • It probably goes further back than the Romans.
    Boudica went into battle against the Romans bare-chested and this shocked them as their ladies were covered.
