WHY DO WOMEN HAVE BOOBS? the answer inside:

Women are the only primates with permanently enlarged breasts (in others, they appear only during lactation). Hypotheses as to why this evolved:

(1) to allow an early woman to show a suitor that she eats well enough to have stored excess fat, making her a good candidate to bear and suckle his kids;

(2) to bring the nipple to the infant's mouth, since there's no chest hair for the kid to pull itself up with and because it might otherwise be smothered by Mom's chest;

(3) to act as a flotation device for the kid while crossing deep rivers;

(4) because STDs wiped out the flat-chested women, who appeared not to be lactating and got more action;

(5) for no good reason. In her book Woman: An Intimate Geography, Natalie Angier suggests that permanently enlarged breasts are evolutionarily "arbitrary," i.e., decorative. Men, women and children may be drawn to them, she says, simply because we are naturally attracted to round objects, such as faces or the moon. In his Book of the Breast, Robert Anton Wilson supposes that the double catenary of female breasts "may have unconsciously inspired the engineers who first solved the problems of suspension bridges."
