"Mooby's!"

"Moobs" are found on Men, on a Man, on Males, etc. The 'm' is there already. And so I ask - why when featured upon the ladies are they called 'boobs'? Those who typically possess them are not called 'bimmen' (or 'boman', individually). Maybe if we referred to humanity as 'guys' and 'gals', they can be called 'goobs'? It's unisex. . .

'Boobs: "breasts," 1929, U.S. slang, probably from much older term boobies (late 17c.), related to 17c. bubby, perhaps ult. from L. puppa, lit. "little girl," hence, in child-talk, "breast" (cf. O.Fr. pope, popel "breast," Ger. dial. Bubbi, etc.).' Online Etymological Dictionary.

Hoping man-bras will make men "gentler and more caring"?

I'm very, very confused.

We all know that Kramer and Mr. Costanza invented this years ago.

I like Mansiere instead of Bro.
