who are you to say it was a waste of time?
You are answering a question with a question and offering no answers. God created man (so you think) so then why exactly did he give them nipples if they serve no purpose? Another user mentio for sensual reasons.... doesn't the bible teach that sex is for reproducing and is a sin when used in any other way?
Don't contradict yourself please.

There's no biblical reason for them. But there's a good evolutionary one.

This is what comes from a too-literal reading of Genesis. It's a variant of "Did Adam and Eve have belly buttons?"
Most mainstream Christina scholars see the Genesis story as mythical -- its truth is not in the literal details but in its deeper meaning. The deeper meaning of Genesis is that God is deeply involved in the act of creation, and intimately related to us.
That being said, God may well have acted through evolution and natural selection in order to create humanity. A standard feature of mammalian evolution is that it's easier to develop a fetus that has bilateral symmetry (the same on left and right) than one that does not. That's why we have two eyes, two nostrils, etc. And it is easier to develop male and female fetuses that are virtually identical, and then use sex hormones later to develop features of one, but not the other.
The same is true for body hair (suppressed, but not missing in females) and nippled breasts (suppressed, but not missing in males.)

If men took hormones, like estrogen and prolactin, his breasts would grow and the milk glands would function. There is a tribe in S. America that the men have done the baby nursing forever. The men have large breasts and they work just fine.
What's that got to do with reproduction? John Grey pretty much hit the magic button with "Women are from Venus - Men are from Mars." There's way more difference between men and women than ****.

The fruit "orange" is named after a color, does that mean colors grow on trees? Some things are just not always understood. By the way, did you know men can produce breast milk under certain circumstances? It has been shown scientifically. Children can grow inside the abdomen's of a man if implanted and attached to the intestines.

To feed the kids if something happens to the mom.
Yes it does work.
There were stone age tribes in existence as late as the 20th century who still used old men as wet nurses when women were too busy to feed the children.

Mammal embryos all start out as female because the female system is more complex and takes longer to construct.
If the embryo is actually male, it releases hormones that stop the development of female parts and begin the construction of the male system. No need to remove the nipples, so they stay.

So we assume that were you to create males and females you would leave some parts off that you've decided are of no value? Don't all our parts form in the womb? I should ask that on the medical forum....brb

Cause as we are in utero we do not have defined sex characteristics right away, but certain things like the gonads begin to develop, then gender is determined, so as females need to develop breasts and males do not we are prepared in either case. School teaches these things, you should go.

I've often wondered why men have nipples (for aesthetics, perhaps?), but I don't think the fact that men have nipples can be used to corroborate Creation or Darwinian evolution.

The devil put them there to make us question God's logic. Okay, seriously though, we evolved and might have once been capable of feeding young too. We probably evolved as our role in the cycle of life changed...
