So did Desmond Morris and all these other clever people who ascribed some variety of "intelligent design" to the "true" purpose and modern shapes/designs of women's breasts also offer equally credible and slick explanations for the existence of male nipples then?? :)
Apparently the solid rounded shape suffocates the baby and causes it to fight for air . One only has to look at the design of the teats on babies bottles to see the kind of shape that works best, much closer in design to the feeding apparatus of the female chimpanzee, infant has no difficulty . In other words all nipple no tit . So the female breast is predominantly a sexual signalling device, rather than an expanded milk machine.

This is why!

cause the embryo follows a female template for the first 6 weeks when the male sex chromosone kicks in for male embryos. The embryo then begin to develop it's male characteristics. However the nipples and some breasts tissue is left.

Yeah I?ve heard that theory too. Because of it whenever I see cleavage I picture a little person bending over inside the lady?s blouse and sticking their bum out the top. Which is amusing but has also somewhat ruined it for me.

    • And a year in to labour being in office, it feels as though they are going hell for leather shafting the country every which way they can.  Look, the Conservatives towards the end lost their way and made a right mess of things, I don;'t disagree about that, however the ship was beginning to turn. UK plc is currently like the Titanic, heading straight into an ice berg and we are about to sink when it hits it. In four year's time I dread to think what state this country will be in.  
    • Yes, true Sephiroth. And Moovart's right in that, whatever direction it's coming from, it disenfranchises the electorate and gives rise to populism. It certainly doesn't help achieve social justice, or bring about meaningful change. Mind you, nor does so-called pragmatism and idealogical neutrality, as we're seeing today. So who bloody knows what the answers are now.

    • I mean this is definitely true - but it rather overlooks the endless angry energy that comes from the right - and not even the far right. Just pick up any issue of Telegraph or Spectator. Or have a look at Priti Patel discussing starving the Irish when Brexit negotiations weren't going well for them. Or some far right idiot killing Jo Cox. Or newspaper articles talking about the need to "kill Corbyn" https://www.medialens.org/2016/killing-corbyn/   left vs right aside for a moment - one thing I already know but this thread proves - you have to be some kind of either lunatic or legend to want to become a councillor. The amount of vitriol (again, from all sides to all sides - but primarily just from average voters) makes it an impossible task for negligible reward or even achievement
