Becuase it is only the release of Testostrone during the pregnancy that makes a baby a male. We are completely equal until then. In fact, the genetic default is for all babies to be female. This fact is also the reason that doctors will make the baby a female if there is a malfunction of the babies reproducitive systems.

First-trimester onset results in inadequate male sexual differentiation. Complete absence of testosterone effect results in normal-appearing female external genitals.

ahh i went to google and typed: why do men have nipples

and got

Dear Cecil:

As I understand it, the appendix at one time assisted in our digestion. Today it is useless. Our wisdom teeth, I have learned, helped our ancestors chew tough herbs and raw meat. Today they are a nuisance. But there is a third biological mystery for which I have no answer. So please explain, Cece: why do males have nipples? --Susan L., Los Angeles

Dear Susan:

To tell you the truth, nobody really knows. The best explanation I've been able to find (and frankly it doesn't explain very much) is that nipples aren't a sex-linked characteristic. In other words, nipples are just one of those sexually neutral pieces of equipment, like arms or brains, that humans get regardless of sex.

As you may know, every human being gets a unique set of 23 pairs of chromosomes at conception. These fall into two categories. One pair of chromosomes determines sex--the XX combination means you become female, the XY combination means you become male.

The other 22 pairs, the non-sex chromosomes (they're called autosomes), supply what we might call the standard equipment that all humans get. These 22 pairs constitute an all-purpose genetic blueprint that in effect is programmed for either maleness or femaleness by the sex chromosomes. The programming is done by the hormones secreted by the sex glands.

For example, the autosomes give you a voice box, while the sex hormones determine whether it's going to be a deep male voice or a high female voice. Similarly, the autosomes give you nipples, and the sex hormones determine whether said nipples are going to be functioning (in females) or not (in males).

before the sex hormones have had a chance to do their stuff, all humans are basically bisexual. Among other things, you have two sets of primitive plumbing--one male, one female. Only one set develops into a mature urogenital system, but you retain traces of the other for the rest of your life.

Human nipples appear in the third or fourth week of development, well before the sex characteristics, The sex hormones start to assert themselves at seven weeks.

So following on from what Expectation said, babies that early in development are both male and female, but nipples form BEFORE one sex dominates over the other. So we all have them regardless of sex!
