Your Question:
Dear Experts,
Everyday I strap on a shirt and then all you see is these 2 big nipples sticking through the shirt. They are hard and all the girls make fun of me for being "hard". Why are my nipples always hard 24/7. why is this happening it's embarrasing!

The Answer:
Dear Shreweddud,
It's normal for both men's and women's nipples to get erect ("hard") in response to cold or to stimulation either sexual or nonsexual (like rubbing up against fabric). It's nothing to be embarrassed about, but if it makes you uncomfortable, you may want to wear a thicker shirt, or a t-shirt underneath your clothes. Sometimes extra fabric can keep nipples from showing through clothing.
Hope this information helps!
Take care,
