We know, but we call it milk as a joke. It’s not actually milk.
I’m squeezing like hell and it isn’t working.
Why is that disgusting?
Because “Father’s Milk” hits different.
Don’t many things need to go wrong during fetal development for that? The mammary tissue is usually completely destroyed by birth in men.
No way ! how do I do that ??
Usually with hormone therapy
okk lets gooooooo
Take six mg estradiol enanthate injections weekly for two years. Follow up with domperidone-based lactation induction. Supplementing a testosterone blocker would also be useful.
Warning, this is essentially going on the full hormone therapy trans women go on. You can induce lactation, but it requires being hormonally female for an extended period of time. Look up the effects of mtf hormone therapy, as you would be getting all of them. Also the breast growth is permanent. You have been warned.
I am not genuinely contemplating doing the hormone therapy, the above comment was in jest. However that is very cool to learn about. I had no idea breast development was a one-way road. These are questions I never thought to ask. Thanks for sharing
Sometimes regular stimulation is enough. I saw one case where a man took on an orphaned infant where there wasn’t even any animal milk available to hack together formula, and the starving infant attempting to get milk out of his nipple every hour for multiple days was enough to get the one breast to start making milk, and the infant lived thanks to it.
The need for suckling to stimulate milk production is a catch-22 for women who don’t make enough milk. They have to supplement with formula to prevent “failure to thrive”, but the infant spending some of its sucking time on a bottle instead of a breast reduces their supply even more, so then they have to feed even more formula… There are devices that run a tube to the nipple so the infant can get formula from the tube while at the same time stimulating breast milk production, and they work, but look like a huge pain.
I have nipples, Greg
Can you milk me?
Actually it is true
Certain psychiatric medicines that influence hormones does that - even in malesI love you
well yeah but you have to have a baby first.
Like Arnold Schwartzeneggar!
Newborn baby girls can experience a phenomenon called “false menses” or “mini-periods” due to a sudden drop in maternal estrogen after birth, causing slight vaginal bleeding or a blood-tinged discharge that typically lasts only a few days.
And both boys and girls often have a redish discolouration in their nappies initially - aka brickdust deposit. Totally benign almost all of the times, but a lot of parents are shocked.
You can eat anything that comes out of your own or anyone else’s body to increase your power level.
Humans can grow horns similarly to Omens in Elden Ring. Cutaneous horns can be caused by benign growths, precancerous lesions, or even skin cancer. Apparently, these are also becoming increasingly common in people.
According to American Dad!, also from overdosing on prenatal medicine.
Without having seen a picture, it sounds more cool than gross
Here is an artist’s depiction of someone afflicted:
Nah, for real it’s pretty gnar:
She looks like she’s having a brainshit
RFK Jr when even the worm has has enough.
I feel like she could have that reduced somehow if she wanted.

Isn’t it also an illness dogs can have? I remember a stray I adopted had to get treated for it.

Would that mean that I’m not a virgin, having been in multiple orgies?
“In” feels like the wrong preposition here, since the creatures involved are all on the same side of you. Next to? It’s more like you’re a room or two away from an orgy and the sound doesn’t really carry.
nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
In individuel numbers, how much do you think we’re talking here? 1 per follicle, what would that be couple 10k? More? Do they live peacefully with eyebrow mites or is there a nightly war at the edge?
So they skeet and yeet on your face.
They don’t poop from what I recall.
But they don’t go anywhere when they die so you are covered with poop balloon corpses.
Op said gross or disgusting. That sounds awesome
I thought everyone had them. If you didn’t, wouldn’t your hair follicles get clogged and gross?
Your gut biome is the only way you can digest leafy things. Without them most of it would just stay in there, or go right through you.
I don’t mind that, my gut biome can go ahead and digest food for me. It’s free labor!
As an IBS sufferer, I’m here to tell you, it ain’t free.
I let fire do most of my digestion for me.
Username checks out
Your gut biome is how you digest everything
I think the point being made was that the enzyme used to break down cellulose is only made by bacteria, whereas the enzymes used to break down carbs, fats, and proteins are produced by the pancreas. Digestion is complicated though, the teeth and or stomach acid are also digesting in a way so it’s all an oversimplification
There are more cells in your body that aren’t you, than are.
The count of bacterial cells in your gut, on your skin etc is higher than the number of your own cells.
They aren’t me genetically, but I still need them to live. So really I still feel that it’s a part of me.
Like guide dogs!
I’ve always found this interesting. Human beings (or any vertebrates I suppose) are really more of a colony than a single being. And it’s not just a technicality, it’s meaningful. Much of that colony interacts with your nervous system and affects your moods and behavior. You think you have total control of your mind, but you would think and act differently with a different balance of gut bacteria. Chew on that for a while…
A ratio of 3:1 to 1.3:1
I think one’s microbiome has more mass than one’s brain too. So… who is really doing the thinking?
My brain hasn’t that’s for sure
This is one of the scientific plot holes in The Fly. Or at least the 1980s version. The head-swap version has other problems.
Our noses have erectile tissue.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nasal_concha
Conchae are lined by pseudostratified columnar, ciliated respiratory epithelium with a thick, vascular, and erectile glandular tissue layer.
It’s not uncommon to have a sneeze reflex when aroused.
There’s a type of cyst called dermoid cyst which can grow hair, nails or even teeth inside it.
My wife had one of these, only spotted after they saw the teeth in an x-ray.
All that but we can’t grow new teeth in our mouths. What’s up with that, nature?
Just get a dermoid cyst on your gums and hope it grows teeth!
The Monkey paw curls, you now grow hairs in your mouth.
I had heard of that but didn’t know the name and forgot about it
I read this as demonoid cyst which might be a better name.
That sounds like an infinite money glitch. Sell the teeth and hair, rinse and repeat.
Exploiting the generosity of the tooth fairy beyond normal limits.
Evil twin farming
Enough to be gross, too little to be profitable. Wonder what kind of teeth it grows, maybe you could use them as spares.
That’s a teratoma
Hej, I think its pretty cool how much slime we got producet in our bodies every day, like up to 1 liter! Me, personally, find it gross dat our noses produce that many bacteria, lol.
This works great with @[email protected]s tip regarding the flexibility of our tongues.
Btw, the noses (so called becherocells) just create the slime (glycoproteins) to catch and bind bacteria entering from the outside, they (luckily) don’t create bacteria on their own.
When fertile, women have significantly increased mucus volume in their vaginas.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cervix
Several hundred glands in the endocervix produce 20–60 mg of cervical mucus a day, increasing to 600 mg around the time of ovulation.
The real gross fact is that cervical mucus, during ovulation, has the same consistency as egg whites and can be whipped.
To anyone with a vagina, this is def not an unknown fact hahaha. And gross is debatable but to each their own
To anyone with a long term partner that has a vagina it’s hardly news either.
I mean. I did not know it was called mucus.
Yeah. Very good way to know when your SO is soon getting PMS as well.
I, a vagina-haver, had no idea until a Catholic friend in college mentioned NFP. The secular Fertility Awareness resources I ended up finding all supported my impression this isn’t widely known. That was twenty years ago, though, maybe young people these days are more body-aware?
Agree it isn’t really gross, I think it’s cool, but it seemed gross-adjacent enough I could get away with sharing in this thread.
For the uninitiated, NFP is Natural Family Planning - the practice of avoiding coitus during ovulation as a form of birth control. It’s seen as a natural form of birth control compared to artificial birth control in the form of condoms and the pill.
It’s strange to me that the Catholic Church singles out birth control as needing to be natural, but not much else.
It’s around 75% effective at preventing pregnancies, but doesn’t stop STIs obviously.

Retrograde menstruation.
Because the feliciano tubes aren’t closed on the ends, where they interact with the ovaries, blood from a period can flow backwards into your abdominal cavity.
Additionally, a small amount of sperm (if a woman is sexually active and say trying for a baby) can also go the full way and leak into the abdominal cavity.
So some women can have blood and semen free floating in their abdominal cavity. Between organs
Feliciano tubes, you say… Felopian tubes, do you me mean?
I find it a bit funny that your gross examples are semen. But also yeah. So sticky.
To avoid stickyness what you want to do is, since it’s a protein, freeze dry it with liquid nitrogen as soon as it exits the urethra and viola! no more sticky.
It’s always Christmas with some ovaries.
Whew. Can it cause issues ?
Blood in the abdominal cavity is extremely painful. That alone is an issue, yes.
Why would blood in the abdominal cavity be painful? Wouldn’t it eventually just get absorbed by the lymphatic system?
The peritoneum is very sensitive and blood in the abdominal cavity is a warning for internal bleeding. So it’s very painful for quite some time even when the bleeding is under control.
You can end up with a baby developing where it shouldn’t if I remember currently in extremely rare cases
Ectopic pregnancy
It can! This is one of the possible causes of endometriosis.
Well that’s very good to know. I’m telling my wife. Thanks for the info
ear wax tastes slightly bitter.
Teeth, or rather where they meet your skull and jaw, are technically classified as a kind of joint!
You have mites living in your eyelashes.
You don’t know me
I’m locked in here with them. They’re locked in here with me!
I wonder what types of parasites dinosaurs had. Guess we’ll never know
