The same for "Knockers."

"Chests" sounds clinical and PC.

"Cans" is too industrial.

"Tits" used to be the best word, a word between lovers, until the Victorians decided it needed to be vulgar. Those Victorians and their hatred of their bodies and their Mommy issues! Maybe NBC has the right of it (You may have noticed that they allow "tits" even though it's one of Carlin's seven). This wouldn't be the word to use in anything but intimate company, but it's only vulgar because we've made it so (and for wrongheaded reasons).

Goat, I'm your territory here. Please advise.
I'm no Goat, but I think he'd agree with me when I say:

Boobs are in.
