Man boobs are a strange phenomenon.  Granted, most women want boobs, though I for one am not particularly attached.  A lot of Asian girls for example don’t really like to have them, because the market is more targeted toward girls with small figures in general, which naturally comes to include small boobs.  This being said, man boobs are often embarrassing for men, unless of course they are made more of muscle and therefore they have tricks they can use with them, and then it’s in a way a badge of honor. 

But this being said, this is part of why men can also have breast cancer and other problems that are usually connected to women.  When men have boobs though, it also causes more of a collection of fat around vital areas such as the heart, and therefore it significantly increases the risk of heart disease, which could well explain why women actually have a higher rate of heart disease in general.  They even consider it to be somewhat of a medical condition in teenage boys or men for that matter.  The cause is ultimately unknown.  But many have used exercises, chest specific exercises to reduce them, and frankly even in women, working out more and getting rid of fat in general significantly reduces the size or even eliminates them.  So it’s definitely something to consider.
