I can’t think of another animal whose mammaries are shaped in such a way as a female homo-sapien. Why then do women have mammaries that are larger, rounder and of such a shape that is so distinguishable from other mammals?
I was in college taking some biology course or something when a professor explained that he believed evolution helped shape and form them as they are because most mammals have sex in the form of canine copulation. Thus, the mammaries are supposed to excite the male of the species by appearing to look like the buttocks. I recall everyone in the class laughed and dismissed it… Recalling this event, I wonder if there is any truth to it.
How does science explain the development of a woman’s mammaries?
From what I’ve heard, a “sexy form” is directly relative to certian hormones released as sexual maturity progresses, which are directly linked to firtility.

On the other side of the scale, facial structure, big muscles and a big willy are relative to the health, strength and firtility of mr.man.
Some really interesting theories, but the shape would be dictated more by gravity. Human shaping has more to do with walking upright and “parts” adjusting to gravity than anything else. Think in terms of evolutionary efficiency.
Size would be the only variable visually selectable for the reason given by Rounder.
there is always the possibility that it is a purely sexually-preferred selected feature. i forget the exact term but the feature that is selected not by environmental factors or survival reasnons, but solely because the opposite gender preferred it.
there are other features, especially in other animals, that this has occurred with. for instance coloring on birds, peacocks, etc. they serve no useful purpose except for attracting a mate.
Runaway selection, or sexual selection. Not totally useless… Eg: The peacocks feathers are expensive, and make him very visible. All the ladies think “Oooohhh if he could survive with that big a sign on his back he must be quite a man… how dreamy”
And yes I’ve read several studies on how female sauropsids think, and recent findings support my view.
It’s been proven that men will have sex with almost any women, generally.
Sexual selection isn’t really the question for humanity.
“How well can you maintain a family?”
That’s the big question here on earth.
Sex was just a small factor.
That’s why human loverz look for so much personality virtues, because they wanna find some really good mate for the more difficult tasks in life.
I guess…
I like boobies. I think the fascination that many of we boys have with boobies is because of what society makes of them. The fact that Western society has made bare breasts a taboo of sorts is all the more reason to get a pair for ourselves. In Africa and S. America, where people do yet live in tribal fashion, and where women expose their breasts from day one there is not such a fascination with mammaries. To these primitive peoples, boobies are as common as ears and nose. If society had the revelation that all men and women should be nude as a rule rather than as an exception, revenues from pornography sells would diminish and violent crimes against women as we know them would all but disappear. Try walking around the house with your gf/spouse completely nude as an experiment. In several weeks it would seem truly natural.
I think larger breasts => more milk is not true. It is the amount of adipose tissues or fat cells that makes some breasts larger than others. Otherwise, almost all women have almost same number of milk ducts and hence similar amount of milk production.
However, mothers with larger breasts have the advantage of being able to 'store ’ (not produce) more milk than the mothers with smaller breasts. This means less frequency of breast feeding. However, it is not well proven.
I agree with you to a certain extent. Men in some middle eastern countries and during the Victorian times, get aroused just by the sight of a woman’s legs or hands. Whereas, in the West where woman expose their hands and legs, it doesn’t seem to arouse most men.
Sex in early humans was more of an instinctual ritual rather than an aesthetic pleasure like how it is now. The choice of the female was made based on the probability of the survival of the offspring (and hence the passing of the genes) rather than the aesthetic features. But in the 20th century, the link between sex and procreation is severed with the invention of contraceptives So, the evolution is screwed. I do know how it works anymore.
Thats bullshit too. If I’m not in the mood a women can strip down grab a rampant rabbit, and penetrate every hole whilst humming a show tune, and I won’t get turned on.
If I am in the mood, ankle skin could get me hard.

The only reason pornography would diminish is because real tits are nicer then tits on paper, and you get to see real tits all the time. I’d imagine hard core porn would be as prevailent as ever, maybe even more so, unless in your hypothetical ‘natural world’ everyone is having a hedonistic orgy.
Clothes are as natural as a crabs shell, bloody hippies.
Bullshit bullshit bullshit. studies of mammals show that sex is a social activity. In every study I’ve ever heard of there is social repercussions for sex, and it is done at times for simple pleasure, theres even various cases of masterbation.
Edit: So yes it was instinctual, but it still is instictual, it hasn’t changed.
Edit: Lol… sorry… those asthetic features we find pleasing, we find pleasing for deep rooted evolutionary reasons. Evolution has not caught up to our modern novelties, so the reasons we find a mate attractive have not strayed from our ancient ancestors.
First of all, sex in most animals are hormone driven and they are not perennial.
Conceiving, giving birth to, and taking care of an offspring is not an easy task if not life-threatening for the female species and hence they won’t involve in sex just for fun.
I was mainly thinking about Vaseys pleasure principle which is ubiquituous throughout nature. Then there are quite a few more species who do it just for fun.
With humans it still is instictual, women just know theres not that big of a risk of pregnancy, so they can get their fuck on without all the worries
