    Because i keep asking Zen koan to my wife, finally last night my wife suggested me to start writing down my questions of life in a letter and give it to God directly when i die. My ultimate question is: "Why do i have nipples?"

        Well, you are not the exception all males have them ;P It's left over from early fetal development - at a certain point we were just a fetus with an undetermined gender, and then a flood of hormones came along in utero and told us what gender we were going to be. Nipples are a leftover from that time. Men do have mammary tissue, anyway. Just a tiny, tiny bit of it. During conception, each fertilized egg starts out with an X chromosome (from the mother) and an X or Y chromosome from the father, which determines their gender. XX will be a female, and XY will be a male. During fetal development, what started out as an undetermined gender gets developed during the fetal stage into a male or a female. An Inconvenient Truth Male humans can and do produce milk, i.e., they can lactate. Male breasts contain all the structures needed to produce milk. Further, it is not uncommon to observe lactation in both male and female infants, due to the stimulation they receive from their mother's hormones.

                    Hi Stephen, So the hungry ghosts in your mind can try to suckle. best, Bill p.s. in Thai a "hungry ghost" is a "phii pret:" a karmic inheritance of material attachments: this kind of ghost has a gigantic stomach, and a microscopic mouth. And, as you might guess: ravenous appetite. They are sometimes heard whistling at night, trying to find someone to make spiritual merit (tamboon) for them. Don't' worry, we all have them, and they are not considered nearly as dangerous as other forms of ghosts.

                    "Many : not conversant with mathematical studies, imagine that because it [the Analytical Engine] is to give results in numerical notation, its processes must consequently be arithmetical, numerical, rather than algebraical and analytical. This is an error. The engine can arrange and combine numerical quantities as if they were letters or any other general symbols; and it fact it might bring out its results in algebraical notation, were provisions made accordingly." Ada, Countess Lovelace, 1844
