Whether they are pear-shaped, small, large, or asymmetrical, breasts fascinate... But do we really know them for what they are? Oh breast, noble and graceful roundness... Reveal your secrets to us!


Breasts can cause an orgasm


It’s obviously not the scoop of the year, but breasts are an erogenous zone for many people! A caress, a mastered tongue movement, a nibble... And suddenly the nipple becomes all fired up and hardens under the effect of pleasure felt. More or less sensitive depending on the cycle period, breasts can react very quickly to stimulation. They can affect natural lubrication and even catapult you directly to the 7th heaven for the luckiest ones!


A true palette of colors!


A work of art you say? It’s obvious! And when it comes to art, all colors are in nature. So far nothing surprising, but if I tell you that the colors of the masterpiece can evolve along the way? During pregnancy, the body produces more melanin, you know, that goddess of pigment that makes us tan? Well, here, it’s the areola that it colors, and it generally becomes darker when you are expecting your 8th wonder of the world!


Never two without three?


Regarding nipples, again there is no “norm.” You surely think they come in pairs, and that's just how it is, right? In reality, it is possible to have three, and I’m not talking about a science fiction movie with dubious special effects!


This is called “polythelia,” and it is a phenomenon that could concern up to 5% of the world population. Generally smaller than other nipples, it is often mistaken for a beauty mark or a freckle, but it is indeed a nipple.


And my apologies if I kill the fantasies of some, but this third nipple will never lead to the development of an additional breast... Sorry!


People with a penis can produce milk


“A nipple? What for? I’m not going to feed anyone with that, they’re pecs not breasts!”


Ok, I must admit, generally in mammals, it is the females who nurse their offspring, but in reality, in some cases, it is possible for you to produce milk! Small quantities can be produced if the nipple is manipulated. Some fathers have even managed to breastfeed their children when the task was impossible for the mother (illness or death).


Regarding size, breasts are constantly evolving!


You have surely noticed that depending on the period of the menstrual cycle, breast size can change. As menstruation approaches, they generally increase in volume and then decrease when hormones return to normal. Some people with a clitoris can even gain up to a cup size at the peak of their cycle. Well, there's another reason to indulge in lingerie! Sorry darling, I had no choice, there were no bras that fit me anymore..
