Highlights: The new bra in Kim Kardashian’s lingerie range, with its “daring” raised nipple detail, goes on sale on Halloween, but not, I think, because the effect she’s going for is “scary”. The sales pitch is “No matter how hot it is, you will always look cold”, but I’m not sure “cold” is the look she’s really after, either; the word “perky” has also been floated. Kim is offering you the chance to look permanently turned on, by everything. You could be ambling along with nothing on your mind but a knotty Wordle and half a to-do list, and thanks to the Skims perky bra, sprinkle random erotic charge all over everything. Would this make your day better, or worse? Hard to say, but definitely different.
It really bothers me that standard human anatomy is so sexualised like this. Pointy nipples are not a sign you’re turned on.
All this equivalency does is invite harrassment and gross behaviour, there is no upside.
I was going to say.
Do people think that nipples are like penises, in that regard?
But I suppose any news article like this is supposed to draw people in with sensationalism and, just… really shitty tactics, I guess.
Not even penises are like that (even if the correlation is stronger)
A guy can be hard but not turned on and a guy can be soft while really horny
It’s not 100% related
I have a penis and I can confirm it’s true.
It is far more likely that those cases would be true than false however.
I’ve always called nipples “melon peckers”. I guess that wasn’t an accurate term.
People are sexual
Thanks to this article, I got reminded to port over the rest of my “blocked words” list :D
omg no. I specifically buy bras that do NOT show this. To each their own, but personally it makes me feel so uncomfortable if I notice that’s going on.
I once went to work with no bra after recently getting a tattoo on my back and trying to let it heal. I wore 3 layers, including a thick fleece vest, and you could still see my nipples through it all. Ended up going home and putting a bra on. :|
bras are supposed to hide nipples not add two fake ones
Well apparently this one wants it to appear as if they are not.
And when it really does get chilly, people are trying not to stare at your four nipples.
Over-nippled.
What? Kim Kardashian doing something utterly tasteless and trashy? Never.
When I was in high school I had a girlfriend who had the brilliant idea to cut a hole in the bra cup so her nipples would be more visible. Didn’t realize she was such a visionary.
That is the exact opposite look most bra wearers go for.
Am I barking up the wrong tree here, but isn’t this like, the hypersexualisation of women that I keep hearing about? Being perpetuated by… a woman, who will sell loads of these to her adoring woman fans…
This is very strange to me.
Women aren’t a hivemind. Some women are fully onboard with hypersexualisation…
There’s a difference between men objectifying women, and women being sexual in their own way. We CAN avoid the former while allowing the latter.

These already exist tho…

Did we learn nothing from the Batnipples debacle?
In the 80s, I think, someone else marketed a bra exactly like this. I don’t remember it catching on.
I guess people forgot fake nipples?
Is that Kim in the picture? If so, she’s completely unrecognizable now. She’s had so much surgery that she looks nothing like her actual self.
Can somebody please remind her that bullet bras were a thing? cause tbh I would be fully onboard with those making a comeback
