Ever since the first cave people played “I’ll show you mine if you show me yours,” man has pondered the mysterious human female body.
To even the most educated among us, it can be a confusing -- albeit beautiful -- apparatus that should probably require one of those IKEA manuals with easy-to-understand drawings.
But fear not, menfolk, because we are here to part the feminine veil. We partnered with the makers of Genius 3D mammography and huddled with a group of curious men to find out what questions they had about lady parts.
Here are those questions answered -- without shame. Because everyone ought to know how a woman works.
Where does the nipple end and the areola begin?
We’ll take this as a warmup, since everyone has them. The nipple is the raised tip of the breast containing several holes from which milk may issue. The areola is a larger, flat, colored disc around the nipple. Bumps, called Montgomery glands, dot the areola. These produce an oil that lubricates and cleans the nipple prior to breastfeeding. Interestingly, both may darken during pregnancy. (One theory is that the darker color acts as a bullseye for babies.)
