This might be kind of a dumb question, but; I don't have an adams apple. Not visible, nothting there when I feel my chin, nada.
Ok, so I am not a freak of nature, but; how many Genitic Men have Adams Apples? I can't be all of us.
Oh, and what the heck does it do?
Love
Michelle
I have one, quite small, it's there to the feel, but not visable.

Me have FAT Neck - NO visible apple, BUT, me thinks me can feel one, a small one but me thinks it's there.
Me thinks the Apple is like a bird's plummage - men should use it to attract women. Well, maybe not. I have no idea what it's for. I hope someone can educate us.

Every male has an adams apple, if you don't have one then you're female. To cut a long and boring biology lesson short an adams apple develops during the male puberty years as the hormones make the voice box enlarge and as such deepen the male voice.
This enlargement causes a "lump" to form in the throat also known as an adam's apple. So to answer your question the adams apple is the voice box and secondly every male has one.
And they also come in different sizes a bit like shoes!
not true.....total Myth!!.......even Girls have em
Thanks Kieron!

call me a feak of nature...no discernable adams apple here and a "thin" neck too so no fat to hide it....it's a big plus for the femme side of me, and I the bloke don't miss it either....now if only my voice was a little more ladylike

Adams Apple
I don't seem to have one I am sure I do just can't see or feel it.

Yes! I have that lump in my throat to signal that I am an Adam not an Eve!
Adam could not swallow that Apple!
It is not too noticable, but it is there.
In the winter I will wear a t-neck, I see some gals wearing chokers, that might help cover em up?
I too do not have an adams apple that is noticable.
Mine is barely noticeable as well, strange that most of the girls that have replied in this thread seem to have a small Adam's apple as well.
Just a coincidence or.........?
Luv Ya! :be:
Just a bit off topic
So Do I, but I think its more to do with Sandra's cooking

lol........steak tonight was it lol
Well I have one and it is very noticeable,if I ever go out I'll have to use a wide ribbon choker I suppose.
I dont think MY adam's apple is discernable either. Of course BOTH men and women have them, But they are larger on men.
But its just like every other paramater from hand and foot size, to heigth to physical stregth. There is a BIG overlap between the sexes in all of these---although THE biggest adams apple, hand, foot, etc will belong to a man and the smallest to a woman, Many , Many people, regardless of biosex, will have features that fall within the 'overlap" area.
Sexual organs not withstanding, however
I have one in there someplace
Lucky for me, my Adam's apple is not very noticeable, but like all Adam's apples it is "the projection in the front of the neck formed by the largest cartilage of the larynx." From a quick Google search, I found the following: "When the larynx grows larger during puberty, it sticks out at the front of the throat. This is what's called an Adam's apple. Everyone's larynx grows during puberty, but a girl's larynx doesn't grow as much as a boy's does. That's why boys have Adam's apples. Most girls don't have Adam's apples, but some do. It's no big deal either way."

I am sure I have one in there somewhere, but you have a neck that is distinguishable for the apple to show.
I don't have one. Can't even feel one when I look for it. So that reinforces the feeling again that I was born a girl.
I can feel it but fortunately it's not very prominent.

like i said girls even have em, look at my link above! just not as visable
