In real life, male mammals do not generally produce milk. note There are some exceptions - male lactation is well-documented in the Dayak fruit bat and the Bismarck masked flying fox. Male goats also lactate on occasion. Male mice and rats don't even have nipples, so this trope is impossible for them. Not even all female mammals produce milk — only post-pregnant mammals do. The same usually applies to cartoon mammals, but there are some exceptions. In some cartoons, it is expected that any mammal will have the ability to produce milk, even if the mammal in question has been established to be, or otherwise evidently is, male. This will be treated as perfectly normal. Nobody will even hang a lampshade on it. Sometimes the trope is defied and discussed when characters think a male can produce milk, only for other people to point out that's not possible. Sister trope to Egg-Laying Male. Subtrope of Animal Gender-Bender and Somewhere, a Mammalogist Is Crying. Compare Constantly Lactating Cow, for when female cattle are inaccurately depicted as being able to produce milk even when they've never been pregnant. May be in conjunction with Mister Seahorse. See also Non-Mammal Mammaries, for when a non-mammalian creature is depicted with milk-producing organs. |

House: In the B-plot for "Skin Deep", House is treating a man with couvade syndrome (sympathetic pregnancy) who is experiencing lactation among other symptoms. When his wife goes into labor, he gets contractions too. This gives House his "Eureka!" moment and allows him to diagnose his primary patient, a beautiful model with testicular cancer. What she didn't know was that she was genetically male but androgen insensitivity syndrome led her to develop externally as female. Her undescended testicles has been mistaken for ovaries in early scans. House handles this with his usual sensitivity and tact. | |

Back at the Barnyard: Otis has been shown to be able to make milk in several episodes. In "Aliens!!!", when the animals find out that milk causes the aliens to dissolve, all the cows including Otis attach squirt guns to their udders and start blasting milk at the aliens. Implied in "Animal Farmers". After the farmer is injured, the animals have to do the farming themselves and Abby and Bessy do not want to attach the milking machine to their udders. Otis comes in and attaches it to his udder to demonstrate, saying that he's "seen the farmer do it, like, a hundred times". In "Brave Udders", Otis has a flashback to his childhood bully, Krauser Krebs, poking his udder and causing him to squirt milk on himself. |

Salad Fingers: In the third installment, Salad Fingers takes masochistic pleasure in stinging his body/fingers with nettles; about midway through, he is seen shirtless and caressing his nipple with the nettle, giving him some kind of orgasm which causes his nipple to lactate. | |

The cows you rescue in Tribal Hunter are implied to be male, but are capable of being milked. Likewise the cow enemies you fight are clearly male based on their muscular build and their deep voice pitch, but their (hidden) udder balloons out massively once you force feed them enough eggs and they can also be milked in this state. | |

The move Milk Drink in Pokémon was exclusive to Miltank which is an Always Female Pokémon until Pokémon X and Y introduced Skiddo and Gogoat. They are based on goats and can be female or male, making it this trope for the latter. | |

SpongeBob SquarePants: Implied in "New Digs", where a transition happens and SpongeBob is suddenly holding a glass of milk, which he calls "a glass of warm snail milk". Was originally going to be played straight, with SpongeBob actually shown milking Gary, but the scene ultimately didn't make it into the episode because of the dirty implications. | |

Subverted in Into the Woods. Just like in the original Jack and the Beanstalk, Jack and his mother have to sell their cow because it's no longer producing milk, but in this version, Jack refers to the cow as a "he". But it turns out he was simply mistaken. | |

Discussed in the South Park episode "Ginger Cow". Cartman keeps referring to the titular character as a 'he', yet also makes a joke about how its milk could be used to make ginger cheese. Cartman is either mistaken about its gender, or mistakenly thinks its udder is functional. | |
