Well, now that you mention it...

I think what makes the human body great is it is alot more defensable then most others. Our arms allow us to move and defend most of our torso. while our ankle and legs allow us to turn pretty fast. Compare so a horse, who from pretty much all side but the back, has no defense of its organs or torso at all.

I am reminded of this.

Humans are terrifying....

Saying nipples are a flaw because they are sensitive is like calling your balls a flaw because sometimes you scrunch them when you sit down.

So I assume that you think your balls have no actual function? That's...troubling.

Nipples do not have any meaning. Unlike balls, they are useless, have no gain, and only disadvantages. Thus, nipples on men are a flaw. By the definition of "flaw".

Contrary to popular belief, most quadruped herbivores are more than capable of kicking in every direction. Plus its a horse, it's supposed to run away from predators, not fight them.

What is the inherent disadvantage to having nipples?

As above. They are a weakness as they have no purpose, yet provide a weak spot to the male body due to being highly sensitive zones. Men would be better off without nipples, hands down. Therefore, they're a flaw.

I think youre just not being creative enough. Ill leave it at that, this site is supposed to be kid-friendly. <.<

Spoilered for the kids.

Am I the only one that doesn't think of humans as 'designed'?

You know, I don't want to get personal here, so I'll just say that my wife and I have found my nipples to be quite, quite useful. I feel very sad that some men haven't figured out how best to use theirs.

Nipple play with pegs, rubber bands, nipple chains or just your fingers / mouth is a pleasurable experience for a lot of people. It stems, however, from masochistic feelings that stem from you experiencing pain and enjoying it as a mean of someone you fully trust exercising control on you / your body. Experiencing pleasure from pain, however, isn't an innate function / intent your nipples have. They themselves have zero function and are useless. The prostate is a much better example - it has an innate and very important function, but can also be used as a mean of experiencing additional pleasure when stimulated during a state of sexual arousal. It has a job to do but can also be used for a man-made purpose. Nipples only got the latter and thus fall short.

Working in healthcare, I can say that there are more flaws in how humans have evolved than you can shake a stick at; physically, mentally and socially.

You're not the only one, but I'm willing to let it fly since it is a commonly used shorthand and we all know what is meant. (At least I presume we do.)

Err, ookaaay; that's a very interesting, um, 'line of reasoning'. Yeah, let's call it a 'line of reasoning'.

You maybe. Mine produce an intensely pleasurable, nice feeling. Not painful. I'd invite you over to demonstrate but Germany is a long way away.

Having sensitive areas is not a weakness. Having something dulled to sensation would be.

Again, what weakness do they have?

Has anyone brought up the appendix yet? It doesn't do much other than be a potential hazard to your health.

Isn't it a shooting range for your immune system, basically?

Also herd animals have social defense mechanisms. When you get a bunch of them together, you cant get close to them without getting a hoof to the face. Or for animals with horns, gored. Pointy violent ends towards the outside, no access to the soft yummy bits.

But arent we talking about Bodies and not social?

If horses were solitary, they might have evolved tougher hides or armored flanks. They aren’t, so there was no need.

True.

It's a pretty g-d huge flaw that our mouths are designed such that you can accidentally bite your own tongue while just trying to enjoy a g-d taco! I want to speak to Life's Manager.

But think of all the things you'd miss out on if your tounge couldn't get past your teeth? Like liking beef out of a taco shell......

If that was the case we probably couldn't speak very well. Our language would be much more limited. Plus kissing wouldn't be as fun
