New Theory on Why Men Love Breasts

http://www.livescience.com/23500-why-men-love-breasts.html

I've ofen wondered why most American men seem obsessed by women's breasts, particularly large ones. In my experience, Cubans are more into buttocks and thighs. The French, OTOH, believe the optimum breast size will just fit in a Champagne glass.

Personally, I am most attracted to legs, bottoms, and hips. I can find a flat-chested girl very attractive, provided from the waist down she is well propotioned. (And yes, I do recognize "well-proportioned" is strictly a matter of personal taste!) At ny rate, I find the fawning drooling over breasts of many of my contemporaries to be rather off-putting, if not downright creepy.

No, I'm not being deliberately politically uncorrect or sexist, I'm really curious how these behavior patterns are formed; biological? psychological? cultural? It is also instructive to observe how people respond when posed this sort of question.

For the record, I was breast-fed as an infant. I don't recall any of it, but my brother, who was seven years younger than I was, was also breast-fed, and I do recall that. It was a common event around my house, nd in those days, women often breast -fed in public places. Perhaps that is why breasts are, to me, no big deal.
