Why do men have nipples?

it's one of those things I've been wondering for quite some
time for a bizarre reason...

discovery channel? ;)

Nope netlon :)

I only like thier space-documentaries. You know, about how
it would be to live on other planets/earth in the furure.

yeah those are tight, but I'm guessing that all human genome
starts out the same in early developmental stages, and
eventually when sex is decided, the nipples are there incase
the fetus becomes female (as they are obviously necessary
for women). Hope this helps at all ;)

Think it's a bit of a mystery really and no-one really
knows...

The best explanation I've heard is that the sex of a foetus
isn't decided until quite late on and the nipples develop
before the gender is decided...so guys, take a look at your
nips and recognise that you used to be a woman!!...:)...

I got one of mine pierced by a Dr I used to live with...but
she didn't use any aestetic or nothing so it hurt to fucking
heaven when she did the piercing...felt like being stabbed;
everyone else kinda chickened out after seeing mine done...

Not the best idea to do it yourself at home...even if your
mate is a Dr....

that's what they said in the doc. :)

apparently, all creatures look very much alike early on in
the foetus stage

Anyone have three? Some people do, apparently!

Yeah its because the sex of the geome isnt determined until
later development. You start out looking like a folded piece
of paper, only after that is when your sex is determined....
when the fetus begins to show human features.

my left leg for some reason

Its because all sperms are fe male when they start out, then
they just leave theme there :)

yeah...you're all right to some extent.

Also the long-held notion that anything with nipples can be
milked is a myth.

EEK! *covers nipples with tea cups* My chest in general
looks rather sexy even if I do say so myself.

hmm. i believe most mammals that aren't primates have
several pairs of nippies. but what about the males? do they
have that many nipples or none at all?

Points: 5499 Status: Lurker



Hmm. i think they are pretty cool

think of how stupid you would look without them! =)

Only problem is, i have massive hair growth around the
nipples, and i´m afraid to like shave a bit of the nipple
off....... pincet.

Uneducated haflings.

The TRUTH is that they assist in balance, like whiskers.
