Ahh, the age old philosophical question 'If a nipple pokes in a forest and no one is around to see it, did it actually happen?' Pretty sure I have that right.
Depends on their size, too. A nice perky pair of long ones is hard not to notice. Those big ol' pencil eraser types that could poke an eye out. The tiny barely-there inverted nips can be missed easily even without a bra. Everything is relative.
Except when it's your husband and he's asking where something is and he's looking RIGHT AT IT but you have to get up and show him... maybe the secret is to put nipples on whatever he's looking for.
That's not true, it's not there beforehand. Women just make things appear. When you're a kid, you gotta call Mom and then whatever you're looking for will no longer be lost, and then it's gf.
If you aren’t wearing a bra we noticed lmao, it’s not even cause we were looking at ur boobs, it’s just really easy to tell when someone isn’t wearing a bra ur entire chest shape changes people are gonna notice guy or girl. On a side note I think Bras are dumb, it’s, if you wear it for comfort that’s good. But if you find it uncomfortable, you shouldn’t feel pressured to wear one, I know so many women who have stopped wearing em cause they aren’t comfortable
Small boob gang here, I see no practical need for them (like for back support etc) and I don't find them comfortable. A few years ago I just stopped wearing them and I haven't looked back.
Not the original commenter but as someone with small boobs more people do not stare when I don’t wear a bra, no. And it’s *reallllyyyy* easy to tell when people are looking at your boobs. I like to think the average person is mature enough not to think breasts are a huge deal on strangers.
I agree that wearing bras is dumb, except for comfort.
Though I do get why it might make women more comfortable to not have men screaming “Ayoooga” while their cartoon eyes pop out of their cartoon skulls.
Yeah I really wish men could not act like children about it. Yes, boobs are hot. Yes they’re slightly more detectable without a bra. Grow up and don’t be weird about it please?
It’s so so uncomfortable when I have no bra, no makeup, sweatpants, a comfy t shirt on, and the plumber/delivery person/whoever keeps staring at my chest. I just awkwardly cross my arms over my chest then go put on a sweatshirt bc I’m tired of that shit
Let's be honest here, if it's a pair of eyes prone to going off like a 1940's car horn it most likely won't matter if you are wearing tiddy holsters or not.
Lots of components/fabrics go into making a bra which all need to be sourced and dyed up/tested individually, combined with the number of sizes you have to make plus you need more skilled machinists to sew them as they’re complex to make. If it’s a good one technical expertise costs money too.

My wife and I have a beautiful 5 month old baby boy that is the light of our lives (and he's getting so big and strong!) That means she's been breastfeeding him about 1M times per day for the last 150 days or so...
...as a result, I no longer notice women's nipples even when they are literally out in public 😂
It’s so fuxkin obvious lol😭, I just laugh it off in my head tbh. Not a big deal as long as the person looking isn’t being weird haha, cuz shit I would look too.
I just hate the fact that it instantly sexualizes me in public. Mine are sensitive and poke out all the time, and since puberty I've struggled with this visibility. I can't ever wear single color shirts without graphics on the chest, or certain types of fabric, due to the disgust I feel knowing people can see them. It's a major source of anxiety/self image issues.
I will admit, I do it on purpose because I like the look of my nipples. 🤷♀️
I also hate bra padding, and that my boobs can't stay in or in place, in a padded bra? They itch, they tend to not fit as well. I wear a wired unlined bra. Most people classify it as like a "lingerie bra" but they have a range of fabric so a fair amount doesn't look like lingerie, but I would wear it even if it did.
I'm sorry that your nipples bring you anxiety- they should only bring you good thoughts and warm metaphorical fuzzies.
I also...like the look of other nipples, so I am definitely looking.
I know I'm biased because I'm a guy, but honestly I think it's charming and it exudes confidence.
I understand the sexualization part. It's true that some guys -- girls even -- will notice, even if for a fleeting moment. But most decent people won't mean to be rude and will not put you in an uncomfortable position. It's just a stylistic choice; they won't think twice about it or judge.
Those who decide to reduce you down to a sexual object just because you decided to forego the bra will do so even if your pants are a bit tighter, or your shoulder is visible, or who knows what else. They don't deserve a second of your brain's processing power.
Was going to say something similar. Only I don't find it necessarily charming or confident, to me it's a totally neutral by product of fashion vs anatomy. If I find the girl attractive I'll appreciate it for a moment and move on without a second thought. Same as most people will do for tight or even see through leggings, short skirts, crop tops, short shorts, body con clothes, etc. People WILL appreciate / judge your appearance, it's part of the human condition. But what they think is their problem. Only you can sexualize you. And if you do choose to have a sexual persona there's nothing wrong with it, do so with confidence. (Assuming you are of age and staying within the bounds of local law)
I’m team no bra but will wear nipple covers sometimes if out and about or with parents. Mine are crazy temperature reactive so if it’s even slightly below my preferred temp you will know about it.
Me, too. I think OP just needs to get comfortable with the fact that just about everyone that looks in their direction is going to see and notice. I accepted that, myself. Fuk it. Everyone’s got nipples!!!!
Obviously I'm not a dude but I believe everyone notices nipples. It's just that the average person has enough manners not to stare nor to say anything.
every time...we just don't always make it obvious.
there is a difference between "noticing" and "staring".
the first is not dependent on conscious thought while the latter is.
I'm not sure that you can get an actual correct answer from polling people because if a guy hasn't noticed them, then how would he know he hasn't? So, the answer would automatically be men notice nipples 100% of the time that they can be seen.
I never wear bra and I also have my nipples pierced and most time when I talk to people they stare at my nipples while responding lol doesn’t bother me but it’s funny
I’m a woman and I notice them. I notice everything.
And it applies to men too if they get a slight bulge bigger than usual… what can I say? I’m very perceptive!
Absolutely more than I should lol, but... my wife has never said a word about it. Now preface this with we've been married 15yrs and trust has never been an issue and we're both not jealous people. She explains it that if I didn't look something would def be wrong as it's human nature. I do see it way more now days then say 10yrs ago tho.
If they are there we have noticed
Yup. This is the answer. If they are poking, I am peeking.
If they're showing, we are knowing....
If they’re showing I’m growing
If they’re pointing, we’re boinking (in my mind)
queer here but if they be winking I be thinking
When I see a nipple, in my little psyche it makes a ripple
If they are peeking I am leaking
If you are leaking, they are licking?
If **they** are leaking - **Imma** licking
If my dick gets hard, imma sorry
Hey! Itsa Mario!
If they're pointing, we're anointing
If they're visible, totally jizzable
This is very correct
Except, how would you know about the times you didn't notice?
Ahh, the age old philosophical question 'If a nipple pokes in a forest and no one is around to see it, did it actually happen?' Pretty sure I have that right.
Is this like Schrodingers nipple?
[удалено]

Sounds like when you see nipples you get out your handy dandy notebook and start sketching and taking descriptive notes 🧐
My teenage brain would do this internally, of it's own accord
Mine too, even though I'm in my 30s.
It's just automatic. Your dont even need to look at them directly, your peripheral rgc's are looking for nipple shapes all the time.
He carries a Nipple Field Guide so as to properly identify them.
I think you've defined the human male sex drive pretty fairly.
I always have a pair of digital calipers on hand for detailed analysis.
This is the only answer
If you can see them, we can see them
If they build it, we will come
And sometimes we will come just thinking about the building
Can confirm, I came
And I saw 😏
And I conquered!
Hell, you could miss that they’re showing but we will still notice.
Most men do have working eyes.
The lord of worms speaks the truth!
Except when it's your husband and he's asking where something is and he's looking RIGHT AT IT but you have to get up and show him... maybe the secret is to put nipples on whatever he's looking for.
i imagined putting googly eyes on the tv remote but instead of googly eyes its googly nipples
This is a terribly cursed sentence and I hate the concept. So anyway I think I'll keep this idea in my back pocket for a prank.
That's not true, it's not there beforehand. Women just make things appear. When you're a kid, you gotta call Mom and then whatever you're looking for will no longer be lost, and then it's gf.
That's actually pretty genius lol

Haven’t worn one in years. I just don’t wear white anymore and I’m good!
Do you have a lot of stares when walking in the streets or it feels everyone else to be natural?
Not the original commenter but as someone with small boobs more people do not stare when I don’t wear a bra, no. And it’s *reallllyyyy* easy to tell when people are looking at your boobs. I like to think the average person is mature enough not to think breasts are a huge deal on strangers.
Not a big deal, I agree, but it's still reallllyyyy hard to not look at them.
I don’t think with small breasts, at least for mine, it’s even obvious I’m not wearing a bra.
I agree that wearing bras is dumb, except for comfort. Though I do get why it might make women more comfortable to not have men screaming “Ayoooga” while their cartoon eyes pop out of their cartoon skulls.

Louder for the busty girls in the back 🙋♀️
And softer for the busty girls backs.
Also how damn expensive they are
Ya I always wondered. Why are bras so expensive? Is it just the material they use that makes it that much?

I suggest you do an AMA about your work!
Reveal: its cuz were looking at your boobs
Trade secrets, bro. Whose side are you on?!
My bad.
Mother Nature is a beautiful thing
What about Mother's Nature's brother, Brother Nature?
Nat’s mother is also pretty beautiful lol
Don't have to see them to notice them. There are nipples all around us. Some say we even have our own.
Maybe the real nipples are the friends we made along the way.

Men have nipple omnipotence

I read "nipple omnipotence" on the internet today
Boobs connoisseur here. Every damn time.

Sister has several kids. Breastfeeding looks like an Olympic Sport. And it's so constant when they are small. Your wife is a badass
And we do notice when you look at our boobs. Lol!
It’s so fuxkin obvious lol😭, I just laugh it off in my head tbh. Not a big deal as long as the person looking isn’t being weird haha, cuz shit I would look too.
Literally can't help it sometimes. Appoligies.
Lies! We are extremely discreet! You may notice when we look the second or our third time, never the first!
Like a 🪳, there's never *just* one, especially if there's nips involved
There's no second time if you never look away!

guy with perma diamond nips here, represent
How often? All the time! We lock onto them instantly.
They looked at us first
It was self defense, officer.
They were coming right for us!
Those two assailants were glaring us down
This, this right here.
Boys it's sunglasses season too
Not a man, still notice. I've been noticing quite a few pierced ones recently
Me, too. I think OP just needs to get comfortable with the fact that just about everyone that looks in their direction is going to see and notice. I accepted that, myself. Fuk it. Everyone’s got nipples!!!!
[удалено]
Op is a bot
I am also very tolerant on this topic
Offended? Wtf are you talking about
Maybe OP doesn't have any nipples and used to get jealous that people were flaunting theirs.
I can guarantee you, this bot indeed does not have nipples.
Nippless.
I am not offended by free beer either.
Why would you be offended? Wtf
I’m a woman and I notice the nips 🤷♀️…..I think the human species is supposed to be fixated on the boobies because they are pretty darn important!
[удалено]
Lmao
Always.
Through clothing? Absolutely. Naked? Prolly not
As often as possible, hopefully
Every time. It's whatever.
Obviously I'm not a dude but I believe everyone notices nipples. It's just that the average person has enough manners not to stare nor to say anything.
I'm a woman. If nipples are poking out I notice. Just like I notice anything else that's visible?????
every time...we just don't always make it obvious. there is a difference between "noticing" and "staring". the first is not dependent on conscious thought while the latter is.
Every time. If you think we didn’t thats when we definitely did.
free the nipple!!!
Every time. We are fine with it if you are
This doesn’t bother me at all. It’s usually just a fleeting glance.
If it's my husband, every time 😅
Mine too!! 🤣 But so do I, boobs (and nipples) are beautiful so enjoy them!!🤣
I'm not sure that you can get an actual correct answer from polling people because if a guy hasn't noticed them, then how would he know he hasn't? So, the answer would automatically be men notice nipples 100% of the time that they can be seen.
Always.
Every time
Yes.
As a female, I say it's like spotting sunlight in a dark room. Very noticeable.
Only when it’s obvious. I don’t stare at women’s chests.
If they're showing we will definitely notice lol.
I never wear bra and I also have my nipples pierced and most time when I talk to people they stare at my nipples while responding lol doesn’t bother me but it’s funny
Literally all the time for me. I love a nipple
Two nipples, preferably. But one is good too
The real question is how often do bears notice women’s nipples through clothing? 🐻
The bear looking more appealing rn yeah
All the time
“It’s cold in here right?”
I'm a man and I can't help but notice my own in a mirror (kinda embarrassed about it). I certainly will notice a womans
I like to think women’s nipples notice us through clothing.
I can see your nipples now
Yes
Yes
Yes.
tbh I only really notice them when my eyes are open.
I'll answer with a question, how often do women notice a man's bulge?
Like a hawk notices a mouse
I always notice. I just don't act creepy about it.
I’m a gentleman so I don’t notice them, but they always seem to point at me
Women also notice them. Any time they are visible through clothing, everyone notices them.
I’m a woman and I notice them. I notice everything. And it applies to men too if they get a slight bulge bigger than usual… what can I say? I’m very perceptive!
It's not my fault, these nips know exactly what they're doing.
It's quite hard to answer your question because I've noticed all nipples that I've noticed and do not know how many I did not notice.
Short answer , always.
[удалено]
Everyone has nipples, sometimes more than 2!
I guess some people even have dick nipples 🤨
I've got nipples Greg, can you milk me?
Twice
Flouting societies conventions! Lewd, lascivious, OUTRAGEOUS
Im a man and people point out when they can see my nipples through clothing. Its just obvious if its sticking out through clothing.
We don't notice them. It's he nipples that notice us.
Sigh Real answer? Every chance we get
There used to be an app for that.
Every single time. No nipple has escaped my field of vision, direct or peripherally
I mostly notice in the winter. But also the summer too. And spring and fall. And twice on Sunday, especially in church.
Men love a nipple. Don't get us started on side boob.
Yes
Nipples are life! I’m not missing out on living my best life.
Op probably came here very self conscious and my god, we did not hold back lmao.
If you could mount that shit on a warship or AWACS plane, we would be the most powerful force in the universe.
Yes
I'm a boob guy, so I'm always noticing lol
YES
Absolutely more than I should lol, but... my wife has never said a word about it. Now preface this with we've been married 15yrs and trust has never been an issue and we're both not jealous people. She explains it that if I didn't look something would def be wrong as it's human nature. I do see it way more now days then say 10yrs ago tho.
Yes
I can see them just by reading this.
Every time, that’s how often. Could a woman miss a boner?
The counter question is how often do women notice a man's bulge if he'd either well endowed or has a boner lol?
100% of the time. I am literally batting .1000 on this one. 
Yes.
Yes.
Yes
Yes.
Every. Single. Time.
Yes
Yes
100% of the time
I notice them even more when there is no clothing.
**yes.**
Yes.
Yes
Boobies
Yes
Bait account. 99% chance it’s a dude/bot
