Did you hear that there was a rumor that swallowing semen would make a woman's boobs bigger? Did any women actually fall for this?

Not true. But here's the real facts so you know.
Semen doesn't just contain sperm, but fluids secreted by several glands during ejaculation.
During sexual arousal, and close to the point of climax, semen travels from the epididymis through a tube called the
vas deferens. Here, it picks up a fluid rich in fructose - a sugary substance that acts a bit like rocket fuel.
Other fluids kick in along the way to the urethra (the tube that runs the length of the penis). This comes from the prostate gland, the Cowper's glands and the seminal vesicles. Some secretions are designed to neutralise acids (such as urine traces in the urethra), others provide vital enzymes).
The finished product contains approximately just 10% sperm.
The rest consists of enzymes, vitamin C, calcium, protein, sodium, zinc, citric acid and fructose sugar.

I've never heard this, but you can well imagine there being just enough truth to it to make the rumor stick.
Of course, the same can be said about swallowing, say, mayonaise.
Semen is actually pretty fattening (though it is difficult to get in the quantities that would actually make a difference). If you gain weight quickly, you probably will gain some of it in your breasts.

Some may well do...the other one is that semen promotes healthier skin...there may be something in that given the complex chemical make up of semen

I doubt it. But I have seen a study that showed that ingesting semen orally or vaginally improved women's moods. I'm not kidding about this.

Oh my, I have never heard of this. But, I must say that is is quite perplexing. It is probably something some man made up at one time and hoped that it would catch on.

Rubbing it on them helps to make them bigger, not swallowing it.

I've heard it does contain mood elevating hormones. Maybe someone heard it makes women "perkier" and misinterpreted it. ;)

A man made up that rumor...and many who are naive do believe it.
