What was going through his mind?

So what do you think was going through the mind of the person who milked the first cow(Or similar creature..goat..ect) Do you think he was thirsty? or do you think we are coded to know that good things come from tits?

Babies needed milk from their mother, so they figured why not get it from other animals. It really isn't that strange of an idea to get it from cows

This. Not to mention, I'm sure they witnessed a cow, goat, or something similar feeding it's children. Put two and two together, and milk comes from titties. The universe has been unlocked.

Oh, and I'm not sure if there was necessarily a first cow, lol.

Let's see. I think they're three scenerios.

1. Seeing as milk come from mother humans, the person wanted to see if it was the same for animals

2. Some kid was bored/curious and started pulling on the cows udders

3. The inventor wanted somewhere to practice "beating" and decided a cow would do the trick xD

He was probably thirsty as fuck, and wanted to see what those pointy things on the cow actually did when you squeezed them.

 

[CaptChadd]

I think he saw the cows young feeding and then followed suit.

 

[Switchplay]

saw calves feeding and tried to extract it, simples

 

[idrinkgas]

It was probably second nature for animals to do this and humans decided to do the same

 

[kill dank]

Someone probably saw the cows doing it and figured they could get some titty milk too. Simple really..

 

[Sypherz]

Everything is bound to happen eventually. Or we wouldn't have progressed.

A better question is as to why we started putting it in cakes and pasta sauce?

Natural instinct would dictate that it really isn't strange at all. Hell, there are even stories about the founders of Rome, Romulus and Remus, suckling on the teats of a she-wolf.

I think he tripped up and grabbed the udder, and he discovered it makes milk.
