Talk:Male lactation/Inappropriate Discussions

Sexual Stimulation?
I'd like to say that it shocked me several years ago, when I was in a period of my life with lots of heavy nipple play, that after one particullarly aggressive time with a nipple clamp I noticed a small amount of whiteish liquid coming from my nipple. It is fascinating to find out that it probably was milk!


 * An adult video i've seen showed a male lactating. First time i've seen this and even thought it's possible (this is what prompted me to look up an article here). At first i thought it was ejaculate but apparently his partner was stimulating his nipple and seemingly endless squirts of white liquid came out. I would say the volume was more than his ejaculate. Evidently not a trick of the eye or the use of a body double. This actor does have a sexually functional penis and has a flat male-looking chest. He may be a female-to-male transexual but i see that is unlikely. I wonder if sexual stimulation enhances lactation for someone who's already on hormones. --Kvasir 00:20, 15 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Short answer, yes. See below. P0M


 * I've been using a pair of suction cups (ok, film canisters) to enlarge my small nips, recently. (since they're so nice to play with in an erotic sense, and I'm planning of having them peirced). After two days my nips started lactating mildly. This weirded me out because I'm a very thin, underweight 19-year-old, and have no fat cells on my chest to speak of.

If I recall correctly, there are several reports of men whose wives have died leaving them with infants to take care of. These were typically people who lived in tropical or semi-tropical areas so the fathers were carrying the infants around nestled against their bare chests. The babies would try to nurse and, lo and beyold, before long some milk would come out. Hormonal changes can influence physical changes, and physical changes can influence hormonal changes. If a baby were to die it would not be good for the mother to keep lactating with nobody around to suck the milk out, so the body is geared to continue milk production as long as the sucking continues on a fairly regular basis -- and that probably means that the sucking is a turn-on for the hormonal production. So you apparently can sort of kick-start the whole thing with sucking or any kind of similar tactile stimulation. It's probably easier for females to start lactating because their hormonal balance is more in the required direction anyway, especially after pregnancy. An artificial supply of the right hormones would also probably make lactation occur more readily than just sucking on the nipples.

Men and women both have mammary glands. (Sorry guys, but you've already noticed you have nipples, right?) Most men have much smaller mammary glands than most women. Mammary glands contain mast cells, and it is those cells, not fat cells, that produce milk. P0M 08:01, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

Nice fiction. Are you a male, a female, or..what? Are you trying to get some message through to us? Men do have nipples from evolution, but they are now out of use, so that's one reason WHY what you are describing would never happen. The male video you saw was probably a fake, just like many of them are. Citing an adult video as testimony is not the best evidence, I'd think. And if a mother died, the husband would not have to lactate it, he could just offer milk to the baby froma bottle. Don't you have anyhting else to cite apart from tropical islands and adult movies? Sorry "man" to disappoint you, men are fundamementally different than women. Good luck. P. P.S I suggest we delete his message. We don't care how an unsatisfied travestite or homosexual derives pleasure from his problematic situation. It is deliberately shocking.
