Why? What would be the evolutionist's claim?
Did males evolve (devolve) from females? Did ancestral males suckle the young? Ludicrous.
According to the TEO, male/female differentiation happened (evolved) much earlier than when mammals evolved from reptiles. There were already males and females long before females evolved breast-feeding.
This would ...[text shortened]... ss all knowledge of the Creator’s intentions, which has never been a claim of creation theory.

Here is a theory that could be ported by a creationist -
Man has nipples because God's original design was human in his own image - he is, in a sense, a child bearer. When he chose to rip Eve from Adam's body (ribs) - eve was formed of man's basic shape, which included nipples - however, God chose to grant the female the gift of child bearing and rearing, thus gave her the mammory glands to do so. The male nipples remain, as that was part of God's original design.

Originally posted by KnightWulfeNot exactly, more of a developmental thing. Human embryos are all created equal, and female. It's only during development that male embryos are masculinised by a rush of testosterone, that changes a whole host of things, it turns the organ that will become the cliteros into a penis and it changes the brain architecture.
Without going into lots of detail - Maybe man nipples are like the appendix - they used to serve some purpose (what? I don't know), but are no longer needed by the male body....
In females Oestrogen is the great developer, but it's affects are more felt during puberty. At puberty, males receive more testosterone and females more oestrogen which develops our bodies and minds into fully developed, lovely individuals that we are!
So, to sum up, male nipples are a reminder of our uterine trans-genderal experience.

Explain the seemingly paradoxical fact that men have nipples. Base your analysis on the principles of either evolution or creationism.

Do you have a problem with having nipples? Have you spoken to anyone about these issues? I wonder what Freud would say about your nipple problems?

Originally posted by reader1107Sorry, but this makes no sense. If men never had nipples, male nipple rings would never have existed, there would be no niche market and no people trying to sell them.

Or, perhaps you are suggesting that all the criminals currently in circulation are simply male tampon retailers, out of business because men don't require tampons?
