Is it "trashy" (or some other negative connotation) for a womans nipples to be seen through her shirt?

Question

I'll start off saying I hate wearing bras. They're uncomfortable, they restrict my movement and circulation in my body. And in the long run, going braless make breasts less saggy.

I sometimes wear a bralette - no wire- but they aren't always comfortable. I've also worn nipple pasties but in hot weather they don't always stick very well.

I want to just say screw it and just let my nipples poke through my shirt but I know it often has bad connotation. I'm not doing it to be provacative, I just want to be comfortable. What would you think if you saw a woman wearing a tshirt with her nipples outline being seen?

Also I feel I should mention that I'm a D/DD cup and i dont actually have a ton of issues going braless, other than nipples it doesn't look that much different than with a bra.

I don't care about if people think it looks good or not. I just don't want to get harassed.

My girlfriends highly educated (masters in math) and 28, she lives in a big city and goes braless frequently. It's not a big deal. We live in a progressive culture, don't listen to these oppressive men saying that it's trashy, those are the same type of guys that will try to have sex with 10 different women a month but then call you a whore for having sex with 3 different guys a year. Bras are shown to cause breast cancer and indeed you're correct, saggy breasts. It's ridiculous how many people here will claim that middle eastern women wearing a hijab is oppressive yet will talk shit about a woman not wearing a bra. They do it for the same reason as the middle eastern, because that's just culturally how they were raised, they were raised to think that if their shoulders or even face or legs show, then they're being trashy, no different than how in north America (I assume you're from) that you will be seen as trashy for showing nipples through shirt or not wearing bra. Go braless and let your nipples poke through if that's how you're most comfortable. It makes me sad that humanity has to be so hard on eachother especially for reasons as ridiculous as this. The only people that will be talking shit or thinking negatively about you doing this are people stuck in archaic ways who don't have the mental capacity to see that everyone has a body and that it shouldn't be something you need to feel ashamed about or cover up completely all the time. P. s, bras were invented in the world war so service women fighting for their country to keep their breasts out of the way of their guns and so they could be more agile. Then the big corporations came out with ads saying that it's sexy to wear a bra and that you should cover up and brainwashed women into thinking that it's necessary to wear them all the time.

No. And there used to be a style where women would wear huge fake nipples sewn into their clothes (before my time but saw it in old movies/tv shows). Now I hear they use small fakes in some movies.

What IS trashy is wearing clothes that don’t fit. Clothes with stretch marks, buttons about to pop.

In the end no study ever confirmed no bras make breasts less saggy because all boobies need some kind of support, because the weight stretches the skin. I prefer bralettes, it gives a little support and they're super cute, just shop some that are really comfortable. Anyways if you want to go braless do your thing

1) If bras restrict your movement I want to know what kind of movements you do.

2) If bras restrict your circulation you have serious medical issues far beyond wearing bras. Your trousers would also restrict your circulation, even more so, I'd presume.

3) Going braless makes the breasts less saggy? Source, please.

There is a general perception that if a woman goes braless and her nipples poke through her shirt, it isn't mostly considered anything positive. But when I read through your question, I strongly wouldn't have anything negative to think about because your intentions are purely genuine and straight.

Bear41 · Answer

Guys usually do not care if your nipples are showing. It is usually girls that are mean and nasty, because you are more secure in your body than they are.

performerwannabe · Answer

It's trashy only if you do it for attention. Girl, bras feel horrible. There's nothing wrong with not wearing them! How come guys' nipples can poke through their shirts and it's completely acceptable but our nipples are out of line?

someone2 · Answer

OK to me I won't think in a negative way about you as it's your personal freedom , but we are not the same as others would be harassing you or thinking in a bad way in both ways do what makes you feel comfortable and the harassment guys would harass you even if you wear a bra

Account · Answer

I do not care if it is. If I do not feel like wearing a bra, I won't wear one. It's simple. People should either get used to it or they should simply look away.

Do what you want. I don't think it's "trashy." Society sees it as trashy and that women should wear bras. But bras are uncomfortable at times and it's hard to find one that's comfortable.

MrMilti · Answer

If it doesn't bother you, that some men will definitely notice it and take one... maybe two... okay, lets just say "multiple" looks at them, go ahead 😉

BigDaddy75 · Answer

No its not trashy at all and if you feel more comfortable without a bra the go for it F@€k what other people say who are they to say whats trashy or not and why are they focusing on your nipples anyways do what feels comfortable 👍👍😉😉😉😉😉

Daniel96B · Answer

Do whatever you feel comfortable with. But you should definitely expect a lot of men staring at ur boobies.

DaManTj · Answer

It's not trashy, it's sexy in my opinion. But at the end of the day wear what you feel comfortable and confident in, it's nobody else's business :-)

hansukota · Answer
