OK, I understand ears and the squiggly bits to make the sound go in your head but what is an earlobe for - apart from hanging expensive jewellery from?
Sensible, and fun answers please!

Good question! from an evolutionary biology viewpoint. The only theory I can think of is maybe they divert sweat and raindrops from running into our ears.

Besides being an erotic spot to attach earrings, earlobes may also help keep your ears warm or cool. Check out the link below.

However, the earlobe itself has no known biological function.
but in past and in some animals they have growth next to year which is soft and and used to cover up their ears when they went under water
well for us its now i suppose only meant for two things
as an erogenous zone as it has many nerve ending so is sensitive
or as place to get pierced lol

Earlobes are one of the most sensitive parts of the body. They are not for hanging jewellery on they are for people to nibble on!

We'd look funny with earrings sticking out of the side of our heads.

They the two look ok. we are in no way pleased with what we've. If we are short, we want we've been tall, if we are dark we would choose for to be easy, if we are skinny we would choose for to earnings weight and if we are fat we would choose for to lose it... Make the main suitable of what you have....
