Until about the 14th week of human gestation, when the various hormones kick into action, the foetus is not gender-related. However, by that time, the tissue that will become nipples has already started forming. As a result, men as well as women have nipples. If you click here, a link will take you to a web-page with further information.

Sorry about the link I offered above...it appears to have gone off-line since I last used it as a reference.

Hey, I posted that question like 2 weeks ago, lol. Someone said something about the nipples forming before the genitalia begins to form.

Yeh I heard it was to do with that...seems logical. All babies begin as females. I used to think it was a primaeval form of pacifier but there you go!
