A colleague asked me to post this question from another listserv...any of you wise women able to contribute ideas?
A student asked today if touching and massaging a female partner's breasts had any documented health benefits beyond sexual pleasure, like decreasing risk for breast cancer, encouraging better breast feeding someday (even for those not currently lactating or pregnant), etc. Have you seen research on this, or would you like to speculate? I would guess that bringing more blood into any tissue encourages better health for that tissue, right?
