Yes, disturbing but true. It has been proven that men are actually born with mammary glands and the tools needed to breast feed. What stops most men from being able to do this is the lack of maturity in the glands . So if the man knew how to help the process along, he would actually be able to produce milk or a milky substance.

A male infant can breastfeed from its mother, if that's what you mean.
If you're asking whether or not an infant can breastfeed from its father, the answer is no.
Of course, if you're referring to a male fetish fantasy, I'm sure you can find all kinds of websites on that topic.

I've heard it is possible for a man to lactate, therefore making him able to breastfeed, but it takes alot of time and is very painful.

Men can't do anything as powerful as women. They can't grow life in their bodies or breastfeed or give birth. All they do is plant a seed and run off!

humans no, only side effects of medication causes male lactation. Otherwise they as useful as nipples on a man.
Some fruit bats, yes. Males help nurse the babies.

male nipples are like pacifiers... some men have chest that resemble the breast of females, however, there's no mammory glands to produce the milk. they baby can't be fed, so let the females handle this :)

What is the matter with you? Why did you ask such question like this? I bet you have nothing else to do, come to my house and let's get drunk, I know I can find a joint or two around something.
