Aibu in thinking this is gross. You don't need a bra to produce fake nipples. For what, so men look at you?

@squirrelnutcartel your posts are contradictory and lacking critical reasoning. You don't blame women but somehow they are simultaneously to blame for other women not being taken seriously or being harmed because "they lay it all out in a plate" and men can't control themselves.
If I held the opinion that the degradation and violation of women on account of what they are wearing is akin to losing personal property due to an unlocked door, I would probably keep that opinion to myself...

l have no nipples after a double mastectomy for cancer. It’s bloody weird tbh. I have nhs nipple illusion tattoos that help make my naked reflection less freaky. But the big advantage is that I don’t get nipples showing through clothes even on cold days. The idea that cancer patients are buying these horrible sex-doll bras is ridiculous.

Imagine wearing this with a tight white top, unbuttoned blazer and trousers suit as you give a work presentation or interview. You'd never find a more focused audience. Or walking around in a tight top, all the men smiling and opening doors. Such friendly, nice men, sometimes with their wife on their side too.

Fwiw my nipples only stick out when im cold or PMSing. They dont get hard on arousal 🤷‍♀️

Yuck. Thank god I'm not young.

You really did say 'they aren't' 😆. No nuance or ambiguity in what you posted.

I didn’t say they aren’t sexualised- it’s quite easy to see from the quote history.

You said

Nipples aren’t sexual. They are for feeding babies

Either way, they are used in both situations

They aren’t inherently sexual. Mouths are used for eating but can also be used sexually.

@squirrelnutcartel "women aren't responsible for how men behave" is the only thing of value you have said...

People Have Different Opinions Shocker

Kimke · 16/01/2025 18:06

I think it's like shapewear, you can manipulate men and get attention from having bullet nipples use it to your advantage and then go home alone. It's sad but true that men treat women they want to fuck better, and that is mainly down to a woman's body rather than her smarts or even face.
What I don't understand is losing your own nipples and then wanting to wear these, surely that's very upsetting?! I get prosthetic bras but these bras are about looking sexy for mens eyes. A woman on tiktok lost her breasts to cancer and she's been focusing on the sexiness and sensuality of legs and arse instead.

1457bloom · 16/01/2025 18:01

So you wear this bra and meet a man who thinks you have perfect nips, end up in bed, the bra comes off and.... the guy feels duped, how sad.

I'm not blaming women, I'm being realistic. I wouldn't go off into town and leave my front door unlocked, I wouldn't walk in the dark to a dodgy area of town. Women aren't responsible for how men behave, but laying it all out on a plate isn't going to help the situation. It also drags all of us down with it. We need to get some self respect and elevate ourselves if we're trying to be taken seriously. We can't have it both ways.

Of course you can have it both ways, to an extent.

I have one of these bras… would I wear it to Court while I’m doing a hearing, no. But I also wouldn’t wear a suit in the bedroom with DP either.

The idea that a woman can’t be taken seriously if she looks sexy is so regressive

ThoroughlyModernNotMillie · 16/01/2025 13:42

Looking at the pictures on the skims website of the models wearing t shirts over this bra, there's no way this bra was designed for anyone else other than women who deliberately want men( or lesbians) to look right at their tits and view them solely as someone up for sex with anyone who wants it.

So visible nipples (natural or fake - since the viewer doesn’t know) means men will view a woman solely as someone up for sex with anyone who wants it??

A previous poster was right… some of these comments are the sort of shit incels spout.

@squirrelnutcartel Why do so many women think we exist to pander to men? Why is it our burden to not "sexualise ourselves" or "encourage men to think of us as fuck toys?"
I don’t wear a bra at all. Unless I’m exercising and need a sports bra I don’t see the benefits of a tight chest constricting garment that interferes with natural respiration.
The effect is probably the same as wearing this bra, so technically are you saying all women should be forced to wear regular bras? Women can wear bras, not wear bras, have evident nipples or not have evident nipples. What does it have to do with you or anyone else? It’s actually people like you who over sexualise women. Nipples are not the problem, stop blaming women.

It’s not more ‘silly’ than suggesting nipples aren’t also sexualised….

SunshineSky81 · 16/01/2025 16:27

Oh come on Now. Of course Nipples are Sexual. Yes, their primary Function is for feeding Babies, but they are also sensitive to sexual and erotic pleasure. Men view them more for their own Sexual pleasure than for Function.

Your arse is mainly for Sitting on and pooping out of, but show a man a picture of a naked womans arse and im willing to bet those are not the first thoughts that he thinks of.

Nipples aren’t sexual. They are for feeding babies.

True re feeding babies but in western society they are massively sexualised. Apparently Jennifer Anniston wore fake erect nipples which when you watch certain episodes, you can see this is true.

Agree with PPs about this being purely to appeal to the male gaze and give the impression the woman is aroused.

Having worked in a professional setting with women facing/having mastectomies, I’d wager 99% of such women find this sort of thing detrimental to their mental wellbeing - that a woman is not attractive unless she has two nippled breasts.

Some women want to be lusted after by pervy men and want the attention that brings. It's not for me, but it also doesn't impact me. I'm currently pregnant and desperately trying to disguise my nipples so I have the opposite problem 😂

Gotthatbigpenergy · 16/01/2025 15:33

This is old news, also a lot of women who have had breast cancer surgery liked these bras.

Why are topless pictures seen as erotic if breasts are purely functional?

The same way as a picture of a topless man can be seen as erotic.

In that case vaginas aren’t sexual as they are used to birth babies….. oh wait?!…

Show the Nipple or don't show the Nipple. The thing that annoys me more is that women just as they are , are never enough... Oh you already have nipples.. well they are not the right kind of firm, plastic perfectly placed nipples so they are less than these.
Honestly, how have we got to a point where we can convince women that nipples need to be monetized, and this family is the worst for it.

Edited

I agree - it’s up there with anal bleaching. When did the colour of anal skin become important?!! And more to the point, why?
