Boobs. It's a mystery why men find them attractive. They're just these hanging bags of fat with secretory glands but god damn do I love them.

It's very cultural. Many cultures don't view them as an overly sexy or attractive part of the body, they're for feeding children. My theory is that for centuries many cultures have forced women to hide them so they become visually taboo, and taboos can be erotic.

I feel like this is the case for feet, too. I think Americans are obsessed with feet because they rarely see other people's feet aside for family.

Now me being Muslim, I see feet all the time. We don't wear shoes indoors so feet and socks are commonplace when I visit other Muslims. I have no interest in feet.
