    Basically, The fascination is all on Taboo. In some cultures Breasts aren't seen as that amazing, secretive awesome thing on a womans body. Back in the time of Odysseus, ETC, The womans most "Hot/Sexy" feature were their ankles and skin.

    So basically it can be different for every culture. if women walked with their breasts out all day, first men would well you can fit the pieces together and after maybe a year to 10 years we wouldnt be as fascinated by them.

    Hope that answers your question! :)

    Why guys like breasts: Breasts = nourishment for babies.. it's a useful reproductive feature for survival so if men are attracted to this (this is in their genes) then it will help keep the species going. Other things guys like on girls: Thin waist with wide hips... higher infant mortality rate.. good for survival. Big butt... see above to the waist to hip ratio bit.. these usually work together. Cute face.. show of genetic quality. --------- What girls like about boys (I got lazy here): What attracts women to guys.. same thing.. reproductive or behavioral things for survival (mainly behavioral to be honest). I believe penis size is something women like for this reason: Sperm travel distance. It might make it easier to get a woman pregnant if there is less distance to travel. I don't know the accuracy of that but I think it has to do with that. ------------- What attracts each gender to the other one is largely based on keeping the species going.

    well if you want the evolutionary reason, scientists estimate its because women who have big breasts are more able to breastfeed healthy babies since they can carry more milk, so it is a desirable trait for a man seeking a mate.

    men are "fascinated" because of their animal drive to seek the best mate.

    now... this doesn't mean that just because a guy looks it means he is a cheater... it just means that is why guys like them

    Men look for big breasts in nature, it has to do with reproduction. Its inate. In nature woman look for the biggest male to mate with. Male humans look for the biggest breasts. More milk aka healthier offspring.

    P.S- what else am i going to nut on?

    I think it has to do with the same reason women love men's balls..

    for one, they don't have those parts so it makes them interesting.

    second, they are for the most part always covered up and growing up you were never able to see them thus sparking our curiosity...and just seeing women in bathing suites etc growing up was only a tease...men including me LOVE breasts for that reason...and because they are so fun to play with!

    thats's just my opinion :)

    Its an evolutionary thing. Men associate big breasts with fertility.

    it goes back since we where in early stages of humanity. A womans breast subconsciously brings out the early stage of humanities genes. In other words the Womans breast, reminds us of the butt ox. why? I have no idea.
