Men and women are mammals (from the Latin mamma breast) a species that have breasts and feeds its young with milk. The human embryo has tissue that will evolve into breasts. Both male and female babies are born with nipples and ducts intact. It is the presence of genes that direct hormones to differentiate the breast tissue. The Y chromosome stimulates hormones such as testosterone to form male features.

It is just a genetic thing. Men have mamary glands (just under the nipple) the same as women. That gland is part of the nipple and makes us mamals (along with a few other traits)

i guess , in case there was a malfunction , God wanted to have the alternative available...........That's why men have nipples they don't use .

according to what i read they have them because before they became boys in the womb all babys start out as girls. don't know if that's true, just what i read.

How in the hell else would you be able to do a titty-twister on someone if they didn't have them?

Joe's answer above me is correct.
But he failed to mention that they are also there for girls to bite on.
