Nipples are given to foetus' in the womb before the gender is decided.

Though human males have nipples, it is not so often understood that they also have mammary glands. Ordinarily the mammary tissue is low in volume and cannot be noticed. Under the appropriate hormonal stimulus—the hormonal stimulus that nature provides to human females when they become pregnant and give birth—the mammary glands of human males can also produce milk. The volume of milk produced is low relative to that of a lactating female. Male lactation has, in some cases, commenced without hormonal treatments as well

We male and female are basically from the same mould, excepting that our hormones cause us to develop the basic chassy in different ways. In fact men actually have breast tissue aswell but it does not develop (although I have see a few man jabs in my time) It is possible for men to get breast cancer too i believe. PS sucking them does very little for us I'm afraid.

We were all female in the womb to begin with. However a foetus with a Y chromosome has its ovaries changed into testis and they decend to where they hang.

Cause we were all female in the womb at one stage. We develop the sexes later in the pregnancy.
