    Men have mammary glands. They are just underdeveloped. If given the right combination of hormones, a man would be able to produce milk, albeit very little. We all have breasts. Some are just bigger than others. Cancer doesn’t care how big your mamms are, though.

      It kind of does, but only quantitatively. The bigger the more likely. But yeah even cis males with relatively normal hormone levels do get breast cancer sometimes.
