Why are breasts called racks, breasts called racks in vulgar slang because rack originally means frame or shelf for holding items, and breasts considered as shelf or rack on chest, with crude objectifying analogy that breasts stick out like shelf. The term comes from rack meaning frame, and nice rack refers to prominent chest as if on display like on rack. This is vulgar and objectifying slang that reduces women to body parts and is disrespectful. For example, term rack for breasts comes from idea of display rack. So breasts called racks in vulgar slang due to crude analogy to shelf or display rack on chest, objectifying term that should be avoided as disrespectful, referring to bust in crude way that treats body as object on display.
