The Chicken or the Egg....and their Belly Buttons

Yesterday Raphy posed the question of where do belly buttons come from and why exactly do men have them too?  Her reasoning behind this is that the belly button is used to feed the baby, thus it's a thing mothers should have.  And as we all know, mothers are women.  So why do men have them?  


Interesting right.  First time I had to carefully think through what I say.  So I told her that all humans have belly buttons because it's where a tube connected them to their mother so that they could get food.  Since men were once babies they had to get food in their mommy's tummies too.  

The follow-up to this question was why do mommy's have belly buttons?  Took about 15 minutes but I think the idea that we all are once babies was thoroughly explained.
