Why do men like boobs?

More or less an instinct I think. That is how I was able to tell I was starting puberty, that I started to imagine and want to see and touch naked breasts of the women and girls around me. I myself didn't have an explanation why, but that was now more than half my life ago and it hasn't stopped.

I don't have strong preferences as to shape and size. Small breasts are still breasts.

I don't know, probably for the same reason others like other things. Chemical reactions, probably?

Cuz boobs

They are soft, easy to grab, and they belong to an attractive person's body at large, which makes them an amazing tactile experience overall.

On the looks, they greatly complement the hourglass shapes, which are very harmonious and pleasing.

It's not complicated. If you're straight, secondary sex characteristics differentiate the opposite sex for you. This is also why men like wide asses--widening of the hips for women is a secondary sex trait.

Women also exhibit this attraction. Conventionally attractive men have square jaws due to more muscle produced from testosterone. They also tend to have facial hair and more muscle definition, all of which are secondary sex traits from testosterone production. Increased height is also an indicator.

I'm not a scientist. But it seems we're coded to find sexually mature people attractive and those signifiers tend to be secondary sex traits.

All three of those things. On a subconscious primal level though it means nutrition for babies

Boobies make good pillows.

The biological hypothesis is that they look like an ass on your chest. Asses are visually arousing for males for what I hope are obvious reasons.

Just something compelling about them. All shapes and sizes

Our dumb monkey brains just like them. It's all of those things you mentioned.

Why does the sun rise? Why does the grass grow? The cock like the heart just wants what it wants. It's like searching for deeper meaning in your favorite color.

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.

Why do you like chocolate?

Coffee?

Ice cream?

Brussels Sprouts?

because they are the soft warm and sweet examples of life

All of that. It makes a mesmerizing movement that I would just like to keep looking at.

Probably some form of Fisherian runaway over the course of human evolution tbh.

Boobs

Shape mostly, but also texture, softness, and smell.

Mom, milk, life, love

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….

They are turned on by them.

We are a stupid neural network trained to detect fertile partners of a specific sex. Ever wondered why so many girls try to oversaturate, say, their naturally ever so slightly brighter lip color? Everything mass beauty industry does is taking male/female characteristics and dialing them up to eleven.

All to make our mating radar detect the gender from as many yards away as possible.

Being animals sucks. =/

Obviously there is no one easy explanation here (as you can see by all the different responses).

I think evolutionary factors play into a general affection people have for boobs. They are humans first source of food and with it an extremely intimate contact. Also on a "birth readiness" perspective Boobs on a woman suggest that she can feed a child (just as wide hips suggest she can bear one).

There is something to be said about culture. Since boobs are considered "sexual" they have to be covered in "decent" settings (see also discussions about female presenting nipples on social media) which simply adds to their sexualization.

Also, in my sexual experience (Bi male) nipples and breasts (boobs/man boobs ...) are erogenous zones so playing with them (touching/pinching/kissing/biting...) actually is arousing thus they are "sexual" parts.

Thats just my two cents.

I think it just goes back to two main things. Being breast fed as a child, you grow to depend and love on the boob, so it's kind of baked into our genetics to some degree. Secondly the Church basically sexualized boobs and are considered taboo private parts most people aren't supposed to see so that gives it some sort of allure that you're seeing something your not supposed to, which in American culture is pretty much the norm. Think of how ankles were such a thing to flaunt not that long ago at all. Some cultures just outright don't care about boobs and just let em hang out so I really just feel like it boils down to culture for most of it.

Past all of that, and personally, a nicely resting boob is just a great sight. Something about the curves and seeing the body in its natural form idk. Also, squishy, they're great to just have a hand on and give a good squish every now and then.

I try to avoid paying them any attention unless someone wants me to look at or touch them thanks to the implication. Most of the time it's just a place where I shouldn't look, so it gets a little awkward in my head when someone has on a graphic tee that I want to read or look at.

Something to work around most of the time, but then can make a partner happy when they are appreciated as themselves when vulnerable enough to bare that much, which adds a little special dynamic that gets the brain chemicals doing their thing.

Sexuality is complex and can occur in almost any circumstance. Rule 34 much?

People get off on watching people pop ballons with their ass. Or sitting on pies. Boobs are a fetish, mainstream as hell, but a fetish none the less.

Are you unaware of how evolution works?

So soft yet so firm.

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

I don't think there is an intellectual answer because it is not an intellectual desire. There is nothing cerebral about the process it feels more limbic. We like them because our bodies demand it. There is no rational reason, there is nothing to understand except our biology. You are not missing the point or not seeing what we see you just don't have the same biological response.

My brother in law thinks cilantro is super gross, it's so bad that he won't go into certain Mexican food places because the smell is so appalling. Personally hardly notice it at all. I see his reactions and they align with the things I already know to be true about his situation but I just don't feel the way he feels. I know how he person feels but I will never truly understand the sensations.

All that to say we just think they are nice.

Given that large areas of the world do not see breasts as sexual, it's hard to avoid the conclusion that breasts are erogenous because our society has said that they are, rather than any innate characteristic.

When I lived in Africa, women and girls had no problem exposing their breasts, but would go to great length to keep their thighs covered.

A large part of it is what part of a woman's body is objectified by society at large. There were times it was ass. Times it was hips. Times when women had to cover their ankles. Now it's breast, but it's all good to me.

We ate from booba for the first sixtee-..er, 2 years(?) of our lives

i wouldn't say i like boobs. I don't go out of my way to look for them. for me, its about if my partner finds something pleasing during a intimate moment.
