Why do breasts have fatty deposits?

Question

It makes them unnecessarily big as far as breastfeeding is concerned. That said, I have -nothing- against big breasts, but the level of fat doesn't seem practical, and it's reabsorbed when women get old anyway.

Answer 1

the evolutionary theory is they are suppose to kind of look like butts from the front to make men think of our butts...and well then think about sex...seems to work if you think about...they turn guys on right?...cause their round a big...and cleavage kind of looks like a crack doesn't it?...at least that's what i get out of watching some of those late night shows on discovery channel.
