    Mammals use boob-juice to raise their offspring. That’s why they are called that.

    As opposed to e.g. birds that don’t use boob-juice and instead elect to vomit in their offspring’s ingestion orifices.

      I know you think this set of boobs is important now, but those boobs will be replaced by another set of boobs. Boobs will come and go. And then, someday, you’ll meet a pair of boobs that you want to marry. And those become the boobs that matter the most.

          Yeah, NASA paid to fund research to communicate with dolphins, and it led to jerking off one of the adolescents so he’d be able to concentrate on the lessons better. Also there was LSD in there for a bit. When the project lost funding the dolphin was moved to an inadequate facility so he got depressed and offed himself.

          The 60s was a hell of a time for sciencing stuff.

            Sounds like an engineering problem Edit: didn’t see you’re reply yet where you discuss this with an engineer. Carry on

            …and the nipple never comes out like how a human nipple can get erect? Forgive my lack of biology, I am an engineering major.

                Thanks for the knowledge! Glad it isn’t some nature metal shit happening there lol. However, I do remember that whale milk is squirted out too (and my god I remember reading that the consistency is… unique). Is the whale nipple inverted too?

                  A dolphin is a kind of whale, so yup! All cetacean nipples are.

                  EDIT: There’s a great band name, Cetacean Nipples!

    In Polish the word for “mammals” is “ssaki” which comes from “ssać” which means “to suck”. So we are all suckers in Polish.

      That’s interesting that the Polish word is so similar to the English word, since Polish is of Slavic origin and English is Germanic.

    It’s called the milky way because of Heracles since he bit his mom’s tit so hard the milk sprayed all over the sky.

      This is what Wikipedia has to say about it:

      In Greek mythology, Zeus places his son born by a mortal woman, the infant Heracles, on Hera’s breast while she is asleep so the baby will drink her divine milk and become immortal. Hera wakes up while breastfeeding and then realizes she is nursing an unknown baby: she pushes the baby away, some of her milk spills, and it produces the band of light known as the Milky Way. In another Greek story, the abandoned Heracles is given by Athena to Hera for feeding, but Heracles’ forcefulness causes Hera to rip him from her breast in pain.

      That Zeus. He’s such a character. Not only does he sleep around on Hera (you know, his sister wife), but then surreptitiously tries to get Hera to breast-feed his bastard son. But I digress…

      I feel this deserves more attention. Not only is the Milky Way named for literal milk; it is named for specifically for human milk.

    Well, until very recently anybody who was not born with a desire for milk and sucking tits didn’t last long enough to reproduce.

    So a bit of a tit obcession is understandable.
