i dont know where it came from or which jender,but i think men was the one who started it..maybe the men always calls it that so the girls just gets on with it..'Boobs' are more sexier to pronounce than 'breast' or 'chest'.

One reason is that a survey was done and women prefered that they be called "boobs" over "tiits" (but that was all the options given)

Thats what BLOKES call them isnt it? We had to 'Dumb it down' for you lot. You probably decided it was wrong to get all horned up over a word like 'Breast' cuz it made you think of your mothers bra fillers so you changed it to boob and then didnt feel so icky???? What do you think lads????

Boobs or bosom's is a 'polite' way to talk about them. T*ts, titties and melons are 'vulgar' ways of describing them!
