Yes, a man can lactate for many different reasons. There are tumours that can form on the pituitary gland which increase secretion of the hormone that induces lactation. There is even simple nipple stimulation which has been known to make males lactate. There are also several types of medication which can cause increase of breast tissue and lactation in men as side effects.

Yes it is. My youngest child is now 3 and I have not stopped lactating. I haven't breastfed him since he was 3 months old.

Since it is possible for men to lactate, it IS possible for a virgin to lactate. Lactation can sometimes be stirred, essentially as a physiological response, to the suckling of a baby.

You cannot get a man to lactate. Only pregnant and nursing women are capable of producing milk in their breasts.

Any mammal can lactate with the right amount of hormones and development.

Even you could lactate if given this hormone regiment. This is not to say ALL shameles can lactate because many breast implants will destroy the milk ducts.
