Re: Prescription Label Humor
Just yesterday I read somewhere an article about "Why men have
nipples". If I understood it correctly, it said that all fetuses start
out female and that the nipples are formed before the transformation to
male gender takes place, and that is why men have nipples. What was
more startling, however, was that men can produce milk! They did not
get in to details, but it sounded like with a couple hormone shots that
guys can lactate. So, maybe that warning sticker is not that far off
the mark!
Truth indeed can be stranger than fiction.
But thank you for your post. I did get a laugh out of that.
