    Mammals use boob-juice to raise their offspring. That’s why they are called that.

    As opposed to e.g. birds that don’t use boob-juice and instead elect to vomit in their offspring’s ingestion orifices.

      Ironically, birds also have a non-zero chance to be called “tits”, “boobies” or some such equivalent. Whoever named those must have been very proud of being a mammal and wanted to rub it in for those poor birds

      Now I’m conflicted. Boobs are great but at what cost?

            I think he means doing it voluntarily. Like, you can shoot out milk at someone by your own will

        Sea lions have retractable nipples. Let that sink in.

          Should I let it sink in just like the sea lions do with their nipples?

          Also, the platypus doesn’t have nipples. It sweats milk.
