And that is the entire point to the conversation!!
Well then there's your answer.
The reason you can't see our nips is that its a sacrifice for us to whip 'em out.
I suppose that comes back to
why is it such a sacrifice. My thinking, and let's hope this makes headway into the issue, is that women have been made to feel way too many different things about it over time. At one time is was "Hey cover all that up and be a proper lady!" Then it was "Why you all covered up, baby? Show me dem tits!"
Either way, it's demeaning.
Add to that the stereotypical male view... "if you aren't a perfect 36 C, then fucking put those away, no use for that."
At no point did anyone ever publically come out and give us all permission to be proud of a damn thing (except Rhiannon) and
also assure us that the objectification would stop and that size didn't matter and that all the teasing, criticism and judgement would also stop.
So, I figure the more focus there is on these things, the longer it will remain a big taboo, something to stay covered and hidden for fear of controvery, comment, complaint, etc.
What does all this have to do with nipples? They happen to be guilty by proxy. They live on the breasts and breasts cause controversy. Its like when someone doesn't like you just because their friend doesn't like you.
