Men do have breasts, glands and all. It's part of the way men and women carry their fat. Women are programmed to have it in their breasts to attract men (apparently we all function at the caveman level according to psychologists). Men who gain weight will get breasts ie. fat under their nipples.

Men do have breasts and actually there have been and are men who have developed breast cancer.
The difference is that women's are for breast feedings and so are shaped for that purpose.
I'm not an expert on this but you just need to research and ask the experts.

Men do have breasts and nipples and all of that. Some men even have big well developed breasts. With the right hormones men's breasts can produce milk.

Men do have breast. But naturally have higher body fat contents than do men, thus the larger breast. Both men and women have the underlying breast muscle, women have more fat on top of the muscle.

Because women bare the children and produce milk to feed the children?
Some men have breasts as well.

Men also have breasts,but they are smaller.Women have bigger breasts,because women have the babies.Babies breast feed,so the women's breasts have to be big enough to hold the breast milk.

Because the female was meant to be child bearing. The child bearing hormones stimulate lactation. These same hormones cause breasts to grow in females and not in males, its all about the dreaded hormones.

Both have breasts, at least on this planet. The famles' are pendulus due to larger glands and more fat for child nursing. What planet are you from?
