Along with their major function in providing nutrition for infants,
female breasts have social and sexual characteristics.
Breasts have been featured in notable ancient and modern sculpture, art, and photography.
They can figure prominently in the perception of a woman's body and sexual attractiveness.
A number of Western cultures associate breasts with sexuality and tend to regard bare breasts in public as immodest or indecent.
Breasts, especially the nipples, are an erogenous zone.
