What's behind a woman's blouse? The Bollywood hit song from Khalnayak of early 1990's jokingly says it's the heart!
Unlike other mammals, human female breasts are now considered more of a sexual organ than a mammary gland that springs into life following child birth.
Desmond Morris, best selling author of Body Watching, Human Watching, Naked Ape...series of books that look at humans from a zoological perspective have already traced the evolution of breast from a mammary gland to a sexually attractive organ in female.
According to Carol Jahne, a writer in The Guardian, UK, the plump bosom in the human ape is an anomoly. No other mammals have a permanent breast. The writer points out that the sex appeal of rounded female buttocks and plump breasts is both universal and unique to the human primate.
The evolutionary process has also wired into female psyche the need to have large breasts and cancer patients and specialists who attended a recent talk show on TV felt they felt most awkward when breasts had to be removed to prevent spread of malignant tumour. This in turn has led to a growing industry for silicone breast implants.
The evolution of the breast as a sex organ has also paved the way for a multi-billion dollar lingerie industry with its market size seen at 1.6 bn to 2 bn pieces worldwide. And the best part is that women and designers are now more keen to come up with dresses that don't fully reveal the bosom but still ensure that men keep guessing and feel attracted!
