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

My granny told me that in the 1950’s her and her friends used to cut holes in the nipple area of their bullet bras so their nipples would be more prominent in their tight sweaters 😂

i wouldn’t wear this sort of bra, but have no issue with it, or with pointy nipples being seen (real or fake)

You could buy fake nips back in the 90s after Jennifer Aniston's nipples had quite a prominent part in Friends, so nothing new.

Sounds like they have been watching reruns of sex in the city

That's exactly what I thought, that episode must be about 20 years old so not a new thing.

Is it any different to the bum enhancing leggings?

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

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

Next up, trousers with a 9 inch dildo sewn into the crotch area!

There are a lot of women who actually buy these because they've had mastectomy's - I used to think the same as many PP but when I heard this perspective, it made a lot of sense.

Oh really how many people, is it a medical device then

Its to make a sexualised look so that men look and enjoy it and then women to complain that they're not intending to look sexy and men shouldnt look and they're creeps and perverts for enjoying it

Unbelievable.

I've spent my entire lifetime trying to hide my pesky prominent nipples

Me, too, only I gave up trying about 40 years ago 😳 They make padded t-shirt bras look like the OP picture. Women have nipples, I can't do anything about other people's thoughts, and these days I'm usually not wearing a bra anyway. If anyone finds old lady nipples sexy, good luck to 'em!

I have no opinion on the Skims bra. Maybe their target audience is male 'women', who knows or cares?

Trying to word this without sounding like a perv, but while your nips may do nothing for you wrt to sex, it's not the same for all women.

Thoroughly modern......thoroughly misogynistic more like.

localnotail · 16/01/2025 07:25

This is to create an impression of a better shaped boobs sans bra )) no idea why except for "titillation"? 😂

Crocsake · 16/01/2025 07:23

I wouldn’t wear one. But they’re not gross. It’s just a bra FFS. Buy one, don’t buy one, whatever.

Dandylione · 16/01/2025 07:22

When we get general items of clothing being sold that simulate an erect male penis I’ll reconsider my views on this

Funnily enough I thought of codpieces as soon as I saw this bra! I think the pp who said bras are often designed to make breasts look more attractive is spot on. Not something I would buy but so what?

It's obviously designed to make eye wearer look sexy but so are lots of items of (mostly female) clothing. Can't see this is an more scandalous than a bodycon dress or a pencil skirt and it's not doing the wearer any harm unlike wearing heels which are also about looking sexually attractive.

They are for feeding babies but they are also highly sensitive and appealing so yes they are also sexual. Why do you think page 3 models were a thing and why this bra exists? They have more than one function.

Come on get real. You think that everyone who sees someone wearing this will assume she’s got a hungry newborn at home? Context is everything.

I LOATHE with every fibre of my being, the fucking Kardashian's. They are EVERYTHING that is wrong with society. Vacuous, fake plastic beings who have contributed nothing other than brainwashing already beautiful young girls into believing that you need to look like you have had a new head transplant in order to be accepted.
God awful fucking family.

Yeah I'd be embarrassed to want to be anything like them.

I’m fed up with sex constantly being pushed into the public arena. And no I don’t want to get into any pointless debates about how nipples aren’t sexual, or be accused of pearl clutching or whatever other excuses will be made that encourage the erosion of public standards of decency

Eugh just what the world needs right now ‘sexy’ pretend nipples to purchase 🤦‍♀️

We’ve all got them and most try to hide them when it’s cold! I wish rich famous celebs would put their time and effort in to positive things for young women FFS

Edited

I have fully inverted nipples so mine will never show. I still don't think I'd buy this bra

@thistlepiedpiper I didn't say they were targetted at them, I said they buy them.

Amybelle88 · 16/01/2025 06:39

@AmusedAzureZebra yes they do. I haven't just read this online, I've heard it from the women themselves.

SecretSoul · 16/01/2025 06:38

When we’re sexually aroused, nipples harden so erect nipples are considered to be an erotic sight. That’s much more so the case than just cleavage. Hard nipples directly suggest sexual arousal.

Deliberately simulating hard nipples is a way of conveying that you’re in a state of sexual arousal.

When we get general items of clothing being sold that simulate an erect male penis I’ll reconsider my views on this.

Until then I’ll continue to consider this type of clothing as typically misogynistic and sleazy.

Slags 😄😄 fucking hell

Some women like sex and to look sexy - it's okay it won't kill you. I was saying to a pp that were experiencing a return to a society that shames women for existing and this is what I meant
