Can any straight man here explain what they like and why they like boobs so much? Like, what makes them attractive and why? Is it the size? Shape? Or The way they jiggle?
Humans are the only mammals with boobs that stay “inflated” without childbirth or breastfeeding involved.
The theory is that it’s an evolutionary selection, and the hypothesis is it’s an aesthetic choice that keeps reinforcing itself (a positive feedback loop) and now it’s HotWired in our brains.
The way i personally see it though, just like how i like certain types of food without a proper explanation to why, i also like boobs.
There’s also the idea it’s connected to being breastfed as a baby which brings back all those warm and safety feelings with them. That doesn’t explain why most women (I speculate) aren’t as into boobs as the average guy. That said, I’ve met multiple women, some straight,who also found boobs very fascinating. So maybe they get the same warm and safety feelings minus the sexual attraction?
id like to know the genetic trait that causes some boobs to be big and some to be small…if it was for aesthetics why wouldn’t they all be one uniform size or very close?
You might be on to something. I was not breast fed, and I’m not a boob person in particular.
Now we have to wait for another anecdote from someone that was breastfed.
I was not breastfed as well (as couldn’t even digest my mother’s milk), still I like boobs very much. I find them very beautiful - and also like different forms and sizes.
I only don’t like boobs with silicone implants, they’re not soft and cuddly.
All three of those things. On a subconscious primal level though it means nutrition for babies
Not straight, and not a man, but I just think they’re neat! There really doesn’t need to be a “why” to attraction, sometimes your brain just sees something and goes “yes”
You get it!
at the beginning there was only ass. when humans still walked in 4 legs, the sexual thing they saw in front was ass cheeks. then humans went and started to walk on 2 legs. humans evolved and developed basically boobs so they were at eye level and attract the males.
boobs are the cheap version of ass.
Ok, you made me snort, have my upvote.

A must watch anime for any wanna be weeb.
I honestly think the original Japanese is better, the tone of voice for this scene is just so much more unhinged than the dub (couldn’t find a clip of the subbed version sadly)
It can’t be explained directly, by itself. They’re part of a bigger picture.
Straight men are attracted to women on the whole - legs, arms, waist, face, chest, back, it’s all good. Whatever force it is that makes us attracted to women, it’s not something that we chose or decided. We just do.
Since boobs are a sign of femininity, they’re attractive to us on exactly that level! They fit into our idea of what women look like.
Edited: Made my reply at root level instead of piggybacking yours with a ton of paragraphs. :p
Firmware. It’s not a logical rational decision. Years of evolution I guess? There is embedded code in our brains that see tatas and we go ape.
That’s definitely not true. Many cultures around the world don’t see breasts sexually at all.
For example?
Educate yourself. Numerous cultures don’t cover the female breast. Not my job.
Idiot.
Lmao
All creatures, including humans, possess instinctual knowledge. This is stuff we are born with. For instance: fear of snakes, or estinating how much protein is in our food by taste. Some of our instinctual knowledge is about mate selection since procreation is a very important goal for a species. We use our nose to detect if others are a good immune system match, and we use our eyes to see if they are sick or unhealthy and also assess their ability to nurture children. That last part is where the boobs come in. They make breast milk and so they are a feature that gives pleasure to see. There is no choice about it. We like what we like because of our genetic programming.
standards of beauty and the sexualization of secondary features are highly cultural. some hundred years ago you’d pull a just-so story out of your ass to explain why ankles are sexy.
When it comes to sexual attraction, no part of the body is excluded. To most straight males (and gay women I guess) feminine shapes are usually atttactive, that can include boobs, hips, noses, hair, ankles. Are female ankles different from male ankles? Difficilt to tell, but a feminine ankle will be probably attractive to someone attracted to women.
The whole cultural thing is absolutelt present, but not in the fundamental attraction for female (or male) appearance
hair styling is entirely cultural, and mainstream preferences for body shape have shifted wildly in the last 30 years just in the united states. all this shit changes way faster than evolutionarily selective pressures.
Shape mostly, but also texture, softness, and smell.
All of what you said. Something about them makes them ace to look at.
Plus, boobs are boobs…big, small, saggy, perky, real, fake. As man’s reaction when a woman takes her top off is a good way to judge him….
Gay woman
Small ones are cute and bite sized, big ones are squishy pillows. Regardless of size, they’re all soft and cute.
“Gay woman”
Isn’t that just straight woman?
…no. They said “gay woman”. Not “straight woman”
Gay does not mean “likes men”
That is exactly what it means
I’m going to assume you’re being wilfully ignorant but not trying to be an ass. “Gay” is more often used of men than women, and it’s perhaps more common for people to use “lesbian” for gay women, but it just means homosexual (or sometimes more generally not heterosexual), regardless of sex or gender.
Cambridge: “sexually or romantically attracted to people of the same gender or sex”
Merriam-Webster: “of, relating to, or characterized by sexual or romantic attraction to people of one’s same sex”
Oxford: “sexually or romantically attracted to people of the same sex”
Brittanica: “sexually or romantically attracted to someone who is the same sex”
Wiktionary: “Possessing sexual and/or romantic attraction towards people one perceives to be the same sex or gender as oneself.”
How stupid are you? What kinda rock you been under?
What
Are you conflating gay and trans?
Heh ?
Shut the fuck up, Donny.
English mother fucker, do you speak it?
a royale with cheese! now i want to watch pulp fiction.
As it turns out, I don’t feel attracted to boobs, I just feel like I should have them. Can’t help ya here chief
Because of biological programming. Humans are the only mammals with females that have permanent boobyliciously boobing boobies, so as per evolution it is no surprise that human males are going boinks for them. Size, shape, motion, who they be on are the mutual factors for any attractive body part, quite so also for boobs. They are cute when tight and jiggly, pretty when bouncy and cozy to feel up regardless of size, neat to catch a stolen glimpse and satisfactory to blblblblbl.
I don’t know what kind of shocking reveal you expect.
we have a poet among us
I don’t know why. But I like small firm boobs… Seeing their shapes through clothes is the sexiest to me.
I remember how I thought about this before I went into puberty though. I had no interests in girls at all. And I remember wondering when that would happen.
Then it did happen and boobs became very sexy. So I guess it’s just chemicals in our brains/body causing it.
Honestly? I often ponder this. It’s amusing when you consider how enamored we are with bosoms.
I’ve heard it described that “Woman is the most beautiful shape in the human consciousness.” And that stuck with me.
My wife often catches me gawking and thinks it’s weird but I’m just like “You’re just amazing. All of you. Everything about you.” I feel like an idiot because I can’t explain what the heck I actually mean.
It’s just hard to fathom how a single being can be so… naturally aesthetic!
Women are just awesome. As a visual artist myself, I totally understand the compulsion to depict cute/pretty/happy/sexy ladies all the time. Heck, some artists do this exclusively. Variety is the spice of life, artists, but I get it. 😂
I think we’re coded to enjoy rounded elegant shapes, but there’s something enchanting about femininity as a whole, and boobs and butts signal “feminine!!” to our brains.
Also I’d say size and such really doesn’t matter. I think the really fascinating thing is the sheer variety, to the point they’re unique to the woman as an individual person. And it has nothing to do with biological essentialism! (Tiny boobs are just as good at feeding young as ginormous ones)
It’s also a bit cultural, I think. They’re so obvious, yet hidden in polite company. So seeing them exposed feels like you have an intimate window into this person’s world, and you feel special for the privilege, I suppose.
Lol now I feel like a weirdo, typing this all out. Does that help? LOL
Straight male here. This response is excellent.
Hey, that means a lot. Thanks! :)
I have spent the last 12 years trying to convince my wife that I am not trying to trick her. I really do think she is that beautiful.
