Without Nipples the Male Chest Looks Strange - move cursor over link text or nipples in picture to left. The nipples provide a focus point for the male chest. They direct the eye to the curve of the pectoral muscle.
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.
Insufficient or defective testosterone, poor tissue responsiveness, or an unbalance of other hormones like Estrogen and Prolactin can cause female like breasts even in men (Gynecomastia). At birth, the small amount of the mother's estrogen in the baby can result in small breasts that usually resolve. There can be an inbalance of hormones during male puberty that can result in temporary breast growth, which for most resolves. There are many medical problems and drugs that can cause male breast growth.
The nipple is actually the central protrusion inside of the pigmented areola. There is a thin muscle just under the skin that when stimulated, tends to flatten the puffed male nipple areola. This muscle when stimulated in a breast feeding woman, projects the nipple for the baby. Nerves that innervate the nipple / areola can produce pleasure for both men and women.

When babies are developing in the womb, they do not yet know a gender, so all parts are developed. It just so happens the nipples are developed before the body knows it is a male. So they are there.

This question has already been asked, you wasted 5 points. They develope before sex is determined in utero. If they receive alot of testosterone (the sex is a boy) the systems neccesary to produce human milk will not develop. If a girl then they will stay intact and eventually develop into breasts later in life.

The development of that skin feature starts before the y-chromosome kicks in to stop future female development.
