Nipples
On one level, nipples are functionary structures found on mammals. However, nipples are thought of as sexually charged parts of the body and are one of the erogenous zones. Both males and females have sensitive nerve endings in their nipples. Typically, arousal from nipple play is associated with women. However, men have smaller nipples and thus their nerve endings are closer together in bundles. Such forms of nipple play such as pinching or nibbling are often more stimulatory in men than women. Nipple stimulation can also be achieved by licking, kissing, touching with fingers, or brushing them with gentle toys like feathers. There are many different ways to stimulate nipples depending on the person. While some men and women claim no arousal from nipple play, most women respond sexually from it.
In one forum at Alt.com dating, there is a vast amount of women who discuss how important nipple play is to foreplay and ultimately achieving orgasm. The men at this Alt.com forum could be considered nipple fetishists because of their declared love for nipples. They also discuss non-contact methods of arousal from nipples such as seeing erect nipples through a tight shirt.
