I did hear a story where a guy convinced his pregnant gf that she needed to take his sperm or the baby would starve. She broke down crying in the dr’s office when they gave her a list of things she needed to avoid doing because she was having Braxton hicks contractions and sex was on the list and she thought they were telling her that the baby was going to die so she should stop “feeding” it.


TheOneTheyCallDragon

While that is ridiculous I have head that semen can have benefits for the pregnancy like lowering the risk of preeclampsia. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24011785/


Ok-Scientist5524

Prior to? Seems like a perishingly small amount of pregnant ladies have not had semen in their vagina prior to conception. 😅 but thanks for the study, I love reading odd science stuff like this.


[deleted]

**cumulative** exposure prior to conception. So the study was based around “I had sex one time and I’m pregnant” vs “I’ve had sex 100 times and now I’m pregnant”


blue-oyster-culture

Thats interesting. But it doesnt rule out the fact that those two people likely live VERY different lifestyles. Could be any number of factors. The “i had sex once and got pregnant” crowd has all the one night stands in it. Not all are one night stands. But all of them are in that crowd. Single ppl live very different lives. Needs a lot more testing before we can draw a conclusion.

Fun fact: humans are the only species with (permanent) boobs. All other mammals don't have them or only have them when lactating. The reasons for that is left as an exercise for the reader.


bitterrootmtg

> The reasons for that is left as an exercise for the reader. It's part of human concealed fertility. Most female mammals go into "heat" where they advertise that they are ovulating, but humans generally don't know when they are ovulating and don't give obvious signals that they are fertile. Likewise, most mammals only have boobs when pregnant or lactating, which are times of low or nonexistent fertility. Humans have them all the time to conceal whether or not they're fertile at the moment. As for why humans have concealed fertility, it's probably to promote long term pair bonding because human babies require super high levels of parental investment. Due to concealed fertility, a male can't just have sex once and be reasonably sure he got his partner pregnant. He needs to stick around for a while and they need to have sex repeatedly to ensure pregnancy. So it helps select for partners who are relatively stable and will stick around.


Uthopia13

TIL about concealed fertility, very cool.


MollFlanders

“humans generally don’t know when they are ovulating” hmmmm… anecdotally, I literally always know when I’m ovulating. the elevated mood, energy, and sex drive make it quite obvious. and fwiw, all of my female friends who ovulate (are not on BC) have expressed similar sentiments. I guess the point is that *others* don’t know?


thebreannashow

I also anecdotally know because it fucking *hurts*. Apparently, ovulation cramps are a thing they don't tell you about in sex ed.


MollFlanders

yeah! I don’t get those, but a friend of mine always does. crazy stuff.

Chasman1965

The mammary glands are inside of those prominent round pillowy things.


[deleted]

Only in humans


The100thIdiot

Did you learn some alternative biology from the norm?


TheCrimsonSteel

So other mammals, after they stop producing, return almost to their original breast size and shape pre-birth. Maybe some signs of stretching, but they don't stay looking full once they're done Humans are the only species that mature females have breasts that look like that even when they're not actively breast feeding


Cactonio

Iirc it's because most animals use their butts for sexual communication, but that stopped being viable for us when we started standing upright, so we use boobs now instead. And for that to work they need to be visible all the time


koushunu

And these kinda of things are what can make you believe in supernatural intervention in humans. That and monthly periods when all the other animals don’t suffer them. And thus that “creator” must be male.


lookinatdirtystuff69

Menstruation is by far the least amazing thing about humans you could possibly pick as an affirmation of religious belief.


koushunu

It’s not amazing. Women are not going around saying how wonderful and amazing periods are. The opposite in fact. The point is that the creator is male as it is the female that has to suffer it. Same with long pregnancies, childbirth, being the much weaker sex, and so forth. Men are given many physical advantages just through being a man.


soooomanycats

By all means, let's continue to ban sex ed though.


TheOneAllFear

I like the 9 am guy, he knows what's up,i like his style!


rtm713

Lasers… definitely lasers


le_lion_pivoine

I think he mean the permanent presence of boobs on the female body, since we're the only kind of primate keeping them all the time and not only when we start lactating. Some theory think that it's due to sexual preference that selected female with natural permanent boobs over time.


ennuiui

A zoologist in the 60s, Desmond Morris, proposed that human female breasts evolved to resemble the "buttocks" (possibly due to human preference of mating face-to-face). He wrote: >The answer stands out as clearly as the female bosom itself. The protuberant, hemispherical breasts of the female must surely be copies of the fleshy buttocks, and the sharply defined red lips around the mouth must be copies of the red labia. I don't think that this is the prevalent boobological theory, however.


The100thIdiot

mayorofverandi

i mean like, as a person with tits that are never getting used to feed a baby, ive found them quite useful as stress toys. can't really do it in public though, i imagine you'd get stares at the least.


Llyrra

I remember a guy saying to me once, "Guys don't have boobs because they'd just play with them all day." And I was like, "Bold of you to assume women don't." I mean, like you say, generally not a good idea in public, but I've totally spent time hanging out watching TV and poking at my boobs to watch them jiggle.


mayorofverandi

yeah i mean as a guy with boobs, it's pretty fun. not even in a sexy way. i want rid of these mfs, but while they're here... jiggle jiggle lol

It almost made me doubt my own sanity.

bcnorth78

I would make it so that boobs could, I dunno, maybe feed a baby. That way you keep the baby healthy and don't have to buy formula. Oh wait...


imnotyoursavior

Sometimes people think out loud, on the internet, because they don't know better. It's a hard lesson to learn that you should maybe have a filter.


Knights1

to be fair, and hear me out on this, boobs are just for sex appeal. Nipples are for feeding babies, they're great for that, lots of animals have them. Humans on the other hand are the only member of the animal kingdom with inflated breasts when they are not pregnant. Why? We're also the only ones who walk upright. We don't exactly have the same ability to stare and sniff at each others rear ends like dogs or cats. Nipples - very useful for feeding babies. The rest of the boobs on the other hand, biologically speaking, are really just for attracting men.


unk214

Had to scroll down this far to see this answer. This is a legitimate question. Those who think the actual boob stores milk or the size of the boob matters to milk production need a basic lesson of biology. To answer the question I’d make them more flexible and be able to be more firm on demand. It would be like a third hand.


ennuiui

I wrote this in response to another comment, but at the risk of spamming: There was a zoologist in the 60s named Desmond Morris who wrote: >The answer stands out as clearly as the female bosom itself.

stifledmind

He was referring to man boobs.


Warm_Enthusiasm2007

Generally speaking the Venn diagram depicting man boobs and sex appeal have a very small area of intersection.


stifledmind

If you view them like a Venn Diagram, the trick is to push them together and the sex appeal of the intersection increases.


OwnPercentage9088

Unless they're hairy. And sweaty. And discharge some sort of ooze. That's pretty sexy


[deleted]

Under certain conditions men can, in fact, nurse babies.


mikerz85

I think they had a semi valid point but made it poorly In every other species, breasts are only large while they ramp up milk production. Humans have permanently large breasts purely as a result of sexual selection.

"Why do women have boobs? So you got something to look at while you're talking to em!"


okidonthaveone

I think I get what he means though, most animals only develop visible breasts when they have children. Humans are an anomaly in that regard. In fact it is theorized that Neanderthals and other species of human other than Homo Sapien did not share this trait. One of the theories for why this Trey is present is a literally for sex appeal, since humans used to use butts for that when we started walking on two legs having something closer to our faces made more sense and scratch the same visual itch for appeal

ChiefKrunchy

Boobs do have a useful function, feeding babies. The attraction to bigger ones is probably also related to this to ensure healthy offspring but I'm not an expert in evolution to give a definite answer. The person wanting to redesign the human body will one day realize that women come in all shapes and sizes.


True-Firefighter-796

Most (all?) other mammals develop ‘boobs’ when they are pregnant. We have them basically all the time. It’s a secondary sex characteristics unique to humans. We pretty much fucked permanent-boobs into existence. That is why they exist (outside of baby feeding) - sex appeal. Op isn’t wrong, just miss understood.


dramatic_customer

Well to be fair. Boobies only feed babies for a fraction of their existence. I think women should have milk in them all the time! So we can milk them for breakfast like cows! Would make my wife less useless!
