    Anecdote time!

    My spouse and I are both trans, although we bother were in the closet and while I wouldn’t say I’ve ever been “conservative” I have definitely had some weird holdovers from growing up in a religious household.

    I used to be very “Nobody else is allowed to see your nipples” in thought although I would never tell them to “cover up” no matter what I thought, as it’s their own body, not mine. Once they settled on NB, I was like “oh yeah then it’s fine… Wait why is it fine now but not yesterday” which was a fun bit of self-reflection lmao

    Personally I think it shouldn’t matter and people need to get over the fact that, gasp most people have nipples, and gasp most of them are shaped differently, some more than others.

    Free the nips.

    I remember reading about a trans woman who uploaded a daily topless pic to Twitter Instagram during her transition, and celebrated when it was deleted for the first time.

    The way things are going, it’s starting to look like:

    1. Man nips allowed
    2. Woman nips not allowed
    3. Nonbinary not allowed

      Nah it’s even dumber than that. For us nonbinary peeps it often just depends on if you look “enough like a woman” for whoever is doing the review. Yet another place where nonbinary gets treated as just “woman-lite” by people.

      Suggested Addendum: nonbinary not allowed *so long as the NB currently has a-cup+ breasts and pronounced nipples.

      The people who tend to have issues with nips are usually the kind to not care about flat chests, regardless of why that chest is flat (natural flatness or top surgery)

      I say free them all. Stop getting hung up on who has boobs, nipples, flat, pronounced, who cares everyone has them and we all know what boobs look like. If you want to go topless, you should be allowed.

      But what if one woman nipple makes someone too horny and the horny police come knocking on someone’s door? This is why we have laws! /s

    Throw a d6, if it scores below 4 you may show, but only on even days, otherwise not. If it scores 4 or higher, you may not show unless if your roommate(s) bang with you. Socks must be kept on.

    Well, women’s actually work. Men’s are just decorative.

    Also men’s also used to be banned. I think it was 1937 they could first go topless.

    Non-binary? Then it’s nip-nope’s for you - that is, you need to proceed to window 19G and hand over your nipples. Refusal will be met with swift law enforcement action.

      tbh, I’ve been tempted to have a nipple-ectomy. They’re just annoying to deal with.

      Then my chest will be socially acceptable viewing material no matter my cup size and gender presentation, right?
