Do women play with their breasts? I don't mean this question to be crass in the least.

It's just something I've always wondered. Do ladies sometimes like to sit around in their underwear and play with their breasts? I'm not talking masturbation. I'm talking about absentmindedly juggling them or something similar[More:]

I know that men sometimes play with their genitalia when they are bored or thinking, and was wondering if women had an equivalent behavior.
Women also play with their genitalia when they are bored or thinking.
Other times, too.

Yes indeed, some of them do, especially when some of them prefer that area for touching by others.

If I woke up one day with boobs, I know I would.

They're not really hand-height, is the thing. Even if one is not playing with one's genitalia, one might often rest one's hands in one's lap. I guess if you crossed your arms, your hands would be there, but that's not really a "mindless fidgeting" sort of position, because it's hard to move either hands or breasts.

Maybe if your elbow is on the table. I was a big toucher as a teen and they were "coming in". Hunched over a book on the table is a perfect position.

Sure. Not while I'm standing in line at the bank or anything, but if I'm lying on my back watching TV.

Yeah, but unlike men we've sorta gotta be naked to do it. So that limits the opportunity. Naked thinking was my specialty in college, but it freaked out my roommate.

Well, you can play pocket-pool with your pants on, but to get down to serious self-pleasuring we dudes gotta detrouser as well.

If men had breasts, evolution would have dictated long ago that we have t-rex length arms. Or better yet, a pair of normal length arms and a set of t-rex arms, engineered specifically for fondling.

I could be wrong, but methinks you might not be trying hard enough.

We have butts, but we don't go around fondling our own much.

(this is all related to my oft repeated Universal Ass Theory, that the buttocks are the one erogenous zone that all genders and sexualities can ogle and enjoy equally. the ass shall save us!)
posted by jonmc 03 September | 16:28
Nope. I usually tend to try and ignore them as much as possible. (Then again, I dislike sex in the sense that it's nice, but not something I seek out on a regular basis.)

Men gotta take their pants off to scratch their balls? That's news to me, and apparantly it's news to the construction worker across the street from my office window.

Scatching your balls is what you do for itches, not for fun.
posted by jonmc 03 September | 16:34
Yeah, jon, that's my point. From the OP:I'm not talking masturbation. I'm talking about absentmindedly juggling them or something similar.

In my experience, men can and will jiggle the junk absentmindedly, with their pants on. For women, this isn't really feasible.
posted by muddgirl 03 September | 16:41
Paging Specklet to this thread! Hee hee!

Yep, all the time. Jiggling, tweaking, cupping... These are all things I do absent-mindedly when by myself. In public, no (aside from my almost constant urge to flash my friends), but when I'm layin' around the house? Heck yeah.

Some breasts are insistent on attention, appropriate timing be damned.

i blame nipples.

How did Robin Williams put it? "A nice breeze hits them and Shazam! Turkey's done!"

You almost owed me a new keyboard, muddgirl. I have amazing self-control.

Speak for yourself, sir! Scratching your ass, now, is a different story.

Breathe, fellas.

gives a whole new meaning to play, doesn't it?

Well, I wouldn't say I can swing from trees or anything, but I can carry a banana hands free.

I do not absentmindedly play with my boobs, no.
posted by rhapsodie 03 September | 23:39
Sorry, I couldn't focus after reading the words breasts and playing used together in the same sentence, let alone in connection to each other.

I wish I had someone's breasts to feel right now...

"every body needs a bosom for a pillow
every body needs a bosom
every body needs a bosom for a pillow
every body needs a bosom"


Yeah!!!

PS. do women ever feel like they didn't have breasts, because of the kind of attention they garner. I know it's hard, but breasts are such a womanly feature, it's difficult not to notice them.

:(

"Scratching" is such an inaccurate term for scrotal or penile itch removal. It's more of a pinch-and-roll between the fingers, to be most effective. At least, that's my preferred method.
posted by middleclasstool 04 September | 09:53
Sometimes, as Specklet and jessamyn - cupping occasionally. The only time (maybe three times ever) I've wished I didn't have them was playing pool and running without a sports bra, sometimes they get in the way - like the Amazons, cutting one off to have room for their bows.

Otherwise they're lovely.

Male friends have told me that they "rearrange" their parts because something is bending or pinching or whatever the wrong way, and becomes painful after a while. Is that true, or was it just an excuse to fondle?
posted by Melismata 04 September | 10:22
If you've ever seen anyone playing 'pocket pinball', Melismata, like my 10th grade English teacher was wont, you'd know it's often just an excuse to fondle.

I have a flasher cousin - everyone who meets her has seen her boobs, because they're magnificent, even after a reduction. They are truly a wonder to behold.

There are certainly occasions when it needs to be adjusted for comfort and that's all that's happening. This only takes a second though, so if there is any lingering going on, then it's just an excuse.

I do the classic Al Bundy belt-loose-hand-down-the-pants-while-watching-tv thing sometimes. Nothing sexual, just holding it ... like a security blanket.

I imagine it more like I'm giving them a little snuggle. No sex tonight, just cuddle time.

Yup. Also, at the urinal, more than three shakes is a wank.
