Hey, same here! Before my son was born I had NO sensation in my nipples. Boy was I surprised when suddenlly I had sensation! Makes lovemaking a lot more fun now! My personal feelings on breasts and sex are these... It is sad that in our society breasts are considered sex objects. When a man considers himself a "Breast man" it's not that he enjoys them for their nutritional purposes for infants, it's because he likes them in a sexual manner. My hubby used to be one of these types, but he's changed since the birth of our son. ( He's looking over my shoulder as I write this :) . He says he's a "Jay man" now!) He now appreciates breasts for their nurturing/nutritional properties for babies. Yeah, he still likes them for the intamcy, too, but the babies needs are more important and that's what the breast was designed for in the first place! It will be a great day when breasts are viewed first as the nutritional/nurturing part of being a mother, and second as sex toys. Dreaming of the day... Jay
