Which do you think men have: Pectorals, or Man Boobs?

Well, which one? On one hand, we have the muscle of the breast bone. When flexed, it can be shown to behave very much like a breast. On the other hand, we have the man boob. These are little more than hanging flabs that give the man an appearance of a fine pair o' jugs. Then, there are the men who just look at this thread without comprehending, thinking, "Was this person dropped on his head as a child, and if so, why didn't they drop him from a higher vincinity?" Finally, there are the ones whom believe that it differs on a case by case basis. Which one do you side with?

And then there are the men with real boobs that are quite disturbing...

It depends, if you're obese - man boobs. If you're fit and in shape - pectorals. If you're both skinny and fat then then I have no f'n clue.

There is a medical condition in which a male will grow breasts like any female... I believe it is called 'gynecomastia'.

Kinda disturbing, if you ask me.

Voted for 'case-by-case'

A better question is "Why do men have nipples that don't work?"

In my opinion, we all start as female, and males are retrofitted, which makes them broken women...;)

what an odd poll

all men have pectoral muscles

some men have manboobs

some men have actual breasts (gynomastia)

by the time you are 70 youll have manboobs. better get a woman while you can.

If you're in shape, they're pecs. When your pecs start to sag, they become man-boobs, or if you're like me and like the sillier term, man-teats.

Someone posted something on here a while ago showing that men can actually make milk and breastfeed.

Kernlandia, men have nipples and mammary glands, they're just normally non-functioning, except with a lot of manipulation like hormonal treatment and stimulation with a breast-pump or something.

They're man boobs, and no one wants to see 'them. I might be overreacting a bit because of recent images that have been foisted upon my poor virgin eyes.
To be specific, I was in the only village within a 20 mile radius of home, when I spotted a very overweight, very middle aged, very busty, very hairy, very shirtless man driving a tractor through his fields. My first thought, I saw his back first, was that he was wearing some sort of sleeveless coat. And then I saw one of the most horrible sights, worse than a disected corpse, worse than anything that could exist in a world with a god. And then he hit a bump, and the resulting jiggling and flopping convinced me that, yes, there was a god, but he was a horrible and vile god, a dark god of hate and sadism, a god who, for whatever sin I had commited, was determined to make me pay dearly.

Bump, but carefully so as not to jiggle any manboobs.

It's from case to case - in mine (i'm a guy), thankfully, I have pectorals (tho they arent super-toned, they aren't flabby like man-boobs)
