This. Down with gender! or..something... I really wish I had something better to add to your comment, but my brain is behaving like an angsty teenager. :c

lol...i knew that!

it makes sense, since we all start out as females...so we have all the same parts with the exception of the sex organs...

I think in terms of mammary glands, guys start off having them develop same as girls. They stop developing after the y chromasome kicks in, I guess.

And, wouldn't you know, you can still stimulate them into milk production!!! (Sorry, but that's just cool :P)

You've probably learned more about fetal development than I have, but I read somewhere recently that, as fetuses, we start out with more than two milk glands (like other mammals) but then the other ones just sort of cease to be important or grow nipples or something. Do you know anything about that?
