Why do Men Have Nipples? missed the boat, recent book published on interesting
medical facts, states that its not that interesting, just residual and
unfortunately they can get breast CA and gynecomastia, to their credit they
state that breast milk can treat warts

When I saw this title, I immediately thought, Why? To breastfeed of course! and
was dissappointed with their actual answer.  We have all heard that there
exists stories of men inducing lactation, or at least calming a baby at the
"breast" (one advantage of being overweight!) I know my DH likes to pretend he
is nursing! and I am sure that nipple stimulation releases oxytocin in men as
well, surely its a source of tactile pleasure for them!
