Here are nine more things you may not have known about the mammaries (breast)
Here are nine more things you may not have known about the mammaries. After all, they are our breast friends.
1. Some women can orgasm via breast stimulation
Two high-profile sex educators conducted an in-depth study to bolster claims that women could reach orgasm through breast stimulation alone. Dorian Solot and Marshall Miller, authors of I Love Female Orgasm: An Extraordinary Orgasm Guide, reported that 1% of women in their research told of their ability to orgasm through playing with their pair.
2. Boobs are more fraternal twins than identical
Everyone has asymmetrical features: an arm longer the other, a foot larger than the other, even a breast larger than the other. In a study published in the
International Journal of Clothing Science and Technology, the right breast was found to be on average larger than the left.
3. Breasts can weigh about as much as three bricks Imagine carrying three bricks around all day every day and then sleeping with them on your chest. The average bra can support breasts that weigh between 0.23 kilograms (half a pound) and 9 kilograms (20 pounds), about the weight of three bricks. That’s heavy stuff.
4. And if you like ‘em large, you’re probably not rolling in dollar.
A 2013 study found that men who "lacked material goods," or who were from a lower socioeconomic background, preferred women with larger bosoms, as this higher fat content may indicate the women have access to better resources.
In fact, these researchers found that those from a low socioeconomic background desired a woman with bigger boobs more than men from a medium socioeconomic background. And, in turn, men from a medium socioeconomic background fancied a larger pair than men from a high socioeconomic background.
Essentially, the poorer the man, the larger the handful preferred.
5. Everyone stares at your breasts.
According to a study where women and men were fitted with an eye-tracking device, both were found to look at a woman’s boobs instead of her face but men do it for longer. So women do boob-watch too but they’re just quicker about it.
6. What does your Tip type say about you?
There are different types of Tips, clinically classed as ‘normal,’ ‘flat,’ ‘puffy,’ ‘inverted’ with three grades of inversion, and ‘unilateral.’ And just like the asymmetry of boobs, your Tips may not be a matching pair.
7. …or even a matching triplet
Another udder. A triple Tip. Having a third Tip somewhere on the body is called polythelia. Around three percent of people have an extra Tip, according to Pathology Outline, although estimates varying greatly by location. The National Institute of Health’s Office of Rare Diseases estimates that fewer than 200,000 people in the United States have an extra teat. It’s often mistaken for a mole and can appear anywhere on the body, so grab a mirror and have a good check.
8. Smoking and pregnancy can cause sweater puppies to sag
There is a vital protein in the skin called elastin, which gives skin elasticity and stretch without tearing. Continual smoking can actually break down this protein, causing slack bosoms. Additional pregnancies can also cause breasts to travel south, as a study presented at the 2007 conference for the
American Society of Plastic Surgeons found.
9. You can get your hands on all the bras – for science!
In fact, there is an entire department for this at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University . Created by the bra manufacturer Top Form, the lab is purely dedicated to the research and development of bras, glorious bras!

After Sallah jokes
After lots of flexing for sallah...check dz out........ A guy got so high and was searching for his missing phone with the torch light from the same phone he was looking for. Since he was so worried with the search and almost in tears, his close friend who was also high joined him in this serious search. After 2hours of searching, his phone rang, he picked the call and quickly told the caller: "I'll call you back, am trying to look for my phone" and he angrily cut the call and continued to search for the phone he just answered a call from. He decided to use the same phone to try calling his line and when he got a busy signal, he turned to his friend and said: " Guy forget, that phone don go, the person wey thief am dey cut as I call am just now

Lessons from my life (story)
I lived a very religious life in campus, and was not in any relationship at all. After school , I met this young handsome guy in 2006. Sincerely, I felt I didn’t not merit him because he is very handsome, while I am on the average beauty wise. The only thing that attracted me to him was the look. He was an hustler and lived a low income life. Throughout our courtship of 18months, He never gave me a dime. I came from a financially buoyant famiy, I therefore saw no need in asking him for anything, rather I was feeding him with three square meal. We got wedded in the year 2007, and I gave him the flower of my womanhood (virginity) but I was not really excited for just no reason.
My husband is a caring man, but nags a lot. He nags about the way I handle bathing soap, the way you arrange plates in kitchen, virtually everything. I most often skip for fear each time he wants to talk because I believe he wants to complain again.
I got a job before he did, but one thing I discover is that my husband spends his money without thinking about tomorrow and always depend on my salary to survive the family. In 2008, I gave birth to a set of triplet, and had to quit work to nurse my angels. He was very supportive then. He provided for all our needs and life was good. In 2012, my husband lost his job, I had to take over the family expenses again. I was running a masters degree program, doing many businesses, and still raising kids. I travelled every week in a bid to keep the family running. Each time, I complain about the stress I was passing through, he tells me I am lazy, that many women do more to sustain their families.
This is 2015, my husband prefers to allow me or my dad to pay the children tuition fee than for him to hustle. I am 100% responsible for the family upkeep. Every biz you introduce to my husband is downgrading to him. I am currently on my PHd degree, I am nursing a set of triplet, and still work hard to survive my family.
It is now that I realize that I married my husband because of his handsomeness, and that he is mentally very shallow. My husband thinks like a child and has virtually no plan for his family.
My simple advice for intending wives is this, looks (handsomeness or beauty) alone is not enough to choose a husband, marry a man that has great vision for his life, not the one that you will keep on dragging up.
Secondly, I believe my husband puts all the family responsibility on me because I was the one feeding him when we were dating. Please, let your guy know from day one that you need to be adored and taken care of like a beautiful flower.
To married men and women there, did you make some mistakes when choosing? Pls share with intending husbands and wives to help them make informed decision.

10 EASILY AVOIDABLE SEO MISTAKES THAT RUIN GOOGLE RANKINGS
1. Duplicate Content.
Duplicate content is one of the most common problems of SEO and many are not even aware that their content is identical to other pages on the web. If search engines find this, one or more of the content pages are blocked as a result. You can use canonical URLs to indicate Google about its originality and even set up 301 redirects from the duplicate. content pages to original content page if content is reused twice.
2. Failure to Optimization of Title Tags and Meta Tags
The title tag and meta description give the visitors a short “preview” of what the pages contain. If brands’ title tags are not optimized, then it creates confusion for search engines. There should be different title tags and meta
descriptions for each of the pages of a site. These tags help in ranking on the
SERP, and the description helps you stand out from the competition.
Having a keyword at the beginning is crucial here.
3. Scarcity of Quality Content
Every company wants to have content on the website that matches with user’s query intent – quality content.
If the quality is bad, then all SEO efforts are a waste. A smart content strategy is required. Also, keep your audience in mind while writing content make sure you write in the level and tone people understand.
Additionally, it is important to update the content on a regular basis and keep it dynamic so that search engine spiders are busy crawling the site on a consistent basis. This will prompt high search engine rankings for sure!
4. Lack of XML Sitemap
Every SEO engineer should make it easy for search engines to browse through your site, crawl and index your pages. An XML sitemap is handy in this regard since it is a systematic file listing of all URLs on a website useful for crawling. Search engines then determine if the page should be crawled or indexed. The XML sitemap should be updated with changes consistently, too.
5. Absence of Mobile Optimized Site
Search engine searchs are one of the biggest activities on mobile devices, and hence a mobile-friendly site with useful labels are good for users to search from. Mobile optimized sites add a good user experience across multiple platforms and devices.
6. Choice of Keywords Without Research
Many who claim to be SEO
professionals don’t really know how to optimize a site; they take the easy way out to promote keywords that are.not at all useful for that particular site. Choice of appropriate keywords and their use throughout the content is
important to attract search engine spiders. With wrong keywords, one is bound to miss valuable opportunities
and instead gain useless traffic.
7. Building of Wrong Links
Building links for link building without strategy is useless to SEO. Building quality links for search engines will help in rankings. Also, it is useless to link to directories since they bring only low quality links. Links to trusted industry sites help in garnering quality links rather than getting 100 links from directories.
8. Use of a Flash Website
One of the biggest problems using flash-based websites is that these sites are not SEO friendly and almost unreadable to search engines. The web spiders can’t read or scour through the content within flash. There should be an HTML alternative and a mobile optimized site instead of a flash website for marketing
promotions and as an online identity.
9. Restrictive Search Engine
Use Most SEOs fall in the trap of optimizing content and layout with Google only and usually ignore other search engines like Bing, Yahoo, etc.
Focusing on Google does have benefits for the site but users on the other part of the world have different search engine preferences, too. If one wants to have a global reach researching and optimizing the site for all search engines will result in maximum SEO benefits.
10. Use of Paid Links
Google updated its algorithm in recent times to Penguin and the strategy for paid links died that very day. Now search engines have started giving respect to quality links instead of paid links since they are naturally unique.
Paying for links is now a direct violation to the search engine standings. Focusing on creating good to great content will help in garnering links naturally for all companies.
