I saw this story over the weekend on msnbc.
http://bodyodd.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/01/25/16701402-male-soldiers-in-germany-are-growing-breasts?lite
Same story but a little more in depth. It went on to say:
"In a study of the German soldiers, published in January 2012, Krapohl and colleagues found significant differences between the guards with gynecomastia and a control group of healthy males without signs of gynecomastia. Those in the Guard Battalion in Berlin had lower testosterone levels and higher body mass indexes (BMI), or a measure of body fatness."
Wonder why the drop in T? Maybe because of the increase of prolactin due to the stimulation, aka chest thumping?
In any case, I agree, there's something to be said for chest thumping, lol
