I was looking at zoot’s website for some clothing and noticed that all the photos for women’s clothing all have the nipple showing. What is up with that.
I don’t get it either but must be the newest craze! Doesn’t look great to me but I bet if you posted on the main forum the guys could explain the appeal. I say go buy some petals (those floral adhesive stickers you can bandaid them up with).
OMG, you’re right! No wonder I don’t like anything I’m seeing for new tri-tops. Subliminally I’m seeing nipples on all of them and don’t want MY nipples to show so I don’t like them.
Stooopid boys run these catalogs.
OMG really? I would *not want that. I am older (40-49 AG) and I am from a more modest era…
I ordered a really cute new tri top, which I will certainly keep because of the styling/print…but yeah when I put it on I was astonished at how thin the fabric was. I am still trying to figure out how to wear it…bra + tri top will still = “skittle smuggling”, to borrow a phrase.

I wore a bright yellow Zoot tri top at IM CDA for the run and realized after dumping water on my head that my top was now a whole lot more see through. I found this out because every guy going by me on the out and back was not looking me in the eyes if you know what I mean. Weak! At the time they advertised that their lining was good for “modesty” and I totally bought into it. HA!
A few years back someone was adverstising a bra (regular, not sporty) that had built in erect nipples. WTH?? Crazy.
I got teased by a teammate a couple of weeks ago while riding in the cold wind. I turned to say something to him and he said “Jeez, you almost knocked me off my bike with those”.
Remember the episode of Sex and the City when Miranda wore the fake nipples and the guys couldn’t stop staring? Too funny!
For as small as they are, they have tremendous power.
Reminds me of Seinfeld:
ELAINE: Anyway so Fred and I are going to do some volunteer work for that Church on Amsterdam.
JERRY: Oh, volunteer work!. See that’s what I like about the holiday season. That’s the true spirit of Christmas. People being helped by people other than me. That makes me feel good inside. Look at what we have here. . A Christmas card from Laine. You didn’t have to go to all that trouble.
ELAINE: It was no trouble. My assistant did the whole thing.
JERRY: I didn’t even see the picture. How did it come out?
ELAINE: Well, you know. It’s a picture?
JERRY: Oh yeah. Look at that. Looks good. Kramer did a good job.
ELAINE: Yeah, well. How hard is it to take a picture?
JERRY: … um …
ELAINE: What?
JERRY: Did you look at look at this picture carefully?
ELAINE: Carefully?
JERRY: Because I’m not sure and and and correct me if I’m wrong but I think I see … a nipple.
ELAINE: What?
JERRY: Here. Take a look. What, what is that?
ELAINE: (gasps) Oh my God! That’s my nipple.
JERRY: That’s what I thought.
ELAINE: That’s my nipple. My nipple’s exposed. I sent this card to hundreds of people! My parents. My boss. Uh, Nana and Papa.
JERRY: DIDN’T YOU LOOK AT THE PICTURE?
ELAINE: Oh God I didn’t notice. Oh, what am I going to do? You know your whole life you go through painstaking efforts to hide your nipple and then BOOM, suddenly hundreds of people get their own personal shot of it.
I think you women are making too much out of this … 
JERRY: What? So what? It’s a nipple. A little round circular protuberance. What’s the big deal? See everybody’s got them. See I got them.
KRAMER: I got them too.
JERRY: Everybody’s got them!
I wore a Zoot one piece racing suit without a sports bra for my first HIM (I’m poorly endowed). It was 95 degrees at the finish line, but the way my nips were standing at attention in the race photo you’d think I could cut glass with them. So every tri top worn in public is bolstered with a sports bra from then on.
I must say that the nippin’ out does get alot of attention at the races. So while I was no where near the top of my age group, I was a podium contender for nipple/areolar erection.
Men like to say it’s not a big deal but then I hear my husband comment about “nipping out” and I know exactly what you guys are thinking. We go running by and you think:
“I’m suffering on this run but here comes a chick and check it out! High beams ahead! Wow! She’s going to hurt someone with those things!”
I don’t want to know what you think after that but if you think girls don’t know you’re looking then you are crazy. We know!
Women, we need to come up with a response to men staring at us in this state. I imagine Elaine would run over to the perp and stuff his face in her breasts and yell,
“Here get a good look!”
My husband might not like me doing that.

No, no, no, no! To reference Seinfeld, again (does Seinfeld have all the answers?):
“They’re real, and they’re spectacular”.

- FANTASTIC idea!
My husband might not like me doing that.
- It will be our little secret …
Look, it’s not like we INTENTIONALLY look. It is an involuntary response. It’s like cleavage. We have no control over it! We are like those fish with the eyes that move independent of the head! Don’t hate us for things we cannot control…
Pro triathlete tells a great story about doing the Spirit of Racine 1/2 IM a few years ago when it was insanely hot. It is a 2 loop run. She gets to the aid station at mile 6 and runs to the table, grabs a couple cups of ice, pulls open her tri top, and dumps down the ice … exposing herself to a 14 year old boy in the process, who stands gaping. On the second loop, as she comes by, there are a line of male volunteers, all standing w/ 2 cups of ice each for her, yelling, “here you go! Over here! Ice here!”
Ok, some men are pigs … ;-p
and you must be the type that talks to the breast and not to the face…ha…joke…really why do men do that

SOME???

Because we can’t see your ass from where we’re standing?
(please note the pink, it’s just a joke…)
Smelly

It’s a primal instinct! We cannot control it! Seriously, the female body is the most beautiful and amazing of all of nature’s creations, which causes those of us of the more impulse-driven gender to lose our minds and look where, perhaps, we should not. But, you cannot blame us. We get to look at (lust over?) the female body. What do you get? You get to look at the male form. Ugh! In the words of Elaine Benes: “The female body is a work of art. The male body is utilitarian. It’s for gettin’ around, like a jeep.”
If the male body was as attractive as the female body, you wouldn’t be looking us in the eye either!
Good answer heard that one before. It is amazing how a post goes all over the place. I was just comenting on the photos on Zoots website and the fact that the model has a nipple showing on most of the photos. Thats is all.
