Manboobs 101
A 26-year-old Swedish man has decided that he wants to breastfeed his son. As if this weren't odd enough, he's actually taking steps to reach his goal! Ragnar Bengtsson recently announced that he will be using a breast pump every three hours until December in an off-the-wall attempt at actually causing lactation. His reasoning? He believes that being able to breastfeed children will allow men to bond with their children at earlier stages of development.

While this might sound a bit crazy, Endocrinologist Sigbritt Werner confirmed that it may just be possible. However, he also stated that while Ragnar might produce a drop or two after a few months, the chances of actually producing enough milk to allow breastfeeding are slim. The only way to make this experiment plausible would be through hormone therapy, which Ragnar has refused to do.
