Why do girls call them "boobs" and guys call them "tits"?

Generally speaking of course because I know I'm going to get a ton of responses that say they call it the other...

  • Because girls have them, and thus they're more concerned about the breasts in their entirety- they have to suffer back pains and wear bras to stop them from sagging because of their weight, so it's the main body of the breasts, their 'boobs', which matter most to them, and so they call them 'boobs'. Men, on the other hand, only have nipples themselves, and for sexual purposes, it's the nipples which are generally the most erogenous zones, and the most erotic part of the breasts- it's the nipples, the 'tits' that matter most to them, and so they call them 'tits'.

  • Well, you sort of answered you own question. Looks like both words are used by both genders. I find 'boobs' having a slightly 'sweeter' tone then 'tits' which is a bit sharp and direct. To each their own.

  • I know women who call them tits/titties. Personally, I don't like the word, so, I don't use it. When I think of someone saying tits, I think of some rough old guy with a scruffy beard.

  • They're obviously called "breasts" hahaha nah i dont really know, i guess tits just sound weird ahha but now boobs sounds weird, they all sound weird -.-

  • I call them tits. Titties. Boobs. Chi chis, tetas, ta tas, fun bags, boobies. Breasts. Breastesses. Bosoms. Udders. Etc etc

    • ... Udders? lol I've never heard a woman refer to her breast as udders :P

  • I've always said boobies, it makes me smile. Guess I'm immature about it🤔

  • I personally think we should start saying "bosom". 😁

    • Bosom has a certain appeal to it. Sounds like it came from Victorian England lol

  • I like 'Breasts' as it is more natural and less course, and 'porn-like' than 'tits' or 'boobs'!!
    There is a time, and place for the other words, maybe.

    • I agree. I usually say breasts unless I'm talking to one of my kids.

    • @BelleGirl21 What do you call them, with your kids? :)

    • Boobs... like "would you stop touching my boobs for Pete's sake?"

    • Show All
  • I call them Boobs, I hate the word tit, sounds so un-sexy

    • Yea it sounds like an animal. "Look at the hyena cubs getting milk from her mother's tits."

    • Awesome comment

  • They have tons of names. I like the word boob tho lol

  • Because tits is an ugly word like moist. 😕

    • Moist is ugly? In speaking of the female body or in general? Because if I say "this cake is moist" that's a positive thing I think...

    • Moist cake is positive 😊 but I just don't like the word. Besides tits sounds crass

    • I agree tits is low brow, which would probably explain why it's favored by males more than females. Boobs seem to be the universally accepted term it seems

  • Really? Because I call them Chee-Chee's...

    • 😂 Chee-Chee's?

    • @Fearless_banana don't judge me. 😂😂😂

  • I call 'em tits and boobs, but I think it's just how they choose to define them. Boobs is more common i think

  • I cal them teddys

    • 😂 Teddy's? Lol
