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!

>existence of male nipples

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.

    • Does anyone know if the above is taking place this year. Can't seem to find it mentioned anywhere?   Simon
    • Hello, with the weather improving, I thought I would flag up the free access to leisure centres in southwark. 1. If you are experiencing poor mental and physical health and live in the borough, the GP exercise referral service allows up to three months of free use of leisure centers. There are three levels of support, and you can even refer yourself. read more for more info: Kickstart, Active Boost and Cardiactive - Everyone Health Southwark   2. If you don't have challenges with physical ands mental health, you can access the free swim and gym for a year. for more info: Free swim & gym eligibility requirements – Leisure Facilities in Southwark 3. Are you a blue badge holder? you can apply for the AD Permit, a virtual payment which allows disabled drivers to part on single and double yellow lines without the need of displaying a blue bae in the windscreen. there is also information for disabled residents to use the Low Traffic Neighborhood (LTNs) around the borough.  Exemptions for Blue Badge holders | Southwark Council Want more information? use the councils website: www.southwark.gov.uk               
    • I am about to tomorrow. I only just realised after asking some neighbours today. Agreed that smaller households should of course pay less, like discounted council tax bills for those on benefits for example. However as our bills have gone up astronomically generally in the last few years, I do feel hardworking families are being penalised... also avid gardeners will be penalised in the summer when gardens are watered no doubt. 
    • Hello Womanofdulwich, I had a meter installed in the summer of last year. Currently my bills have fallen massively. Can you remember which month your water meter was installed? Also I received two appointments, one from a group of staff in orange who decide if the property is suitable for the water meter, and then a second appointment for the meter to be installed, did you have the same thing? Are you saying as well that you was cold called regarding the water meter, or are you saying someone from Thames water turned up, at your door unannoyed?   Lastly (so sorry to through so much questions at you) how many bedrooms do you have and how many people live at the property?
