Um, why have we never seen this before!?

We thought that we'd seen everything there is to see when it comes to the human body, but have you actually seen what a woman's milk ducts look like? No? Well, neither have the majority of people on the internet, apparently.

A picture of a woman's muscle structure has gone viral and no-one can quite believe what's hiding beneath a woman's chest.

The diagram was shared on Twitter and the photo shows the milk duct structures below the surface of the skin, which kind of looks like a flower.

Sure, we all know why they're there, but not what they look like. The glands produce breast milk and are divided into segments. The narrow tubes carry milk to the nipple, kind of like tiny straws.

People had never imagined that this is what is hiding beneath the skins surface. We're so used to seeing the male muscle anatomy in biology books that a woman's body was baffling.

It's actually kind of cool...

However, the image unexpectedly triggered some people, who called it "disgusting".
