A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Want Pinker Nipples?

George “Drake” Wiggins at Body Xtremes in North Quincy, MA, did these nipple tattoos on a post-op transsexual who wanted, well, pinker nipples. (See also: nipple outlines, tattooed nipple shield, and a nipple flower).

    Admit it, Shannon, you just like nipples!

    I admire any transsexual mid-journey to where they want to be. I think it’s one of the most fascinating and important forms of body modification that there is. Plus, posessing girl nipples myself, I can say that they do look a bit more like girly nipples now that they’re pinker. I wish there were a before picture for comparison!

    a before and after would be helpful. it’s hard to tell how good the work is. ….i assume it was good because it’s so hard to tell they’re even tattooed.

    Yay for happy transsexual nipples! Beautiful job too. I’ll have to add this to the list of possible mods I can do once my happy tranny nipples are done growing. 🙂

    I didn’t even realize they were tattooed. That’s good. And they look naturally pink. Hurrah.

    The boob job is a little wonky, though.

    Hmm.. is she laying down in the first pic? To me it doesn’t look like the boob job is wonky, it just looks like gravity is working the wrong way : )

    That’s a pretty damn good boob job, considering what the surgeon must have had to work with. The nipples are slightly wonky, but they look great. Gravity isn’t working the wrong way, they’re just perky! 😛

    I never thought of using tattooing like that though–that’s really interesting and cool.

    the nipple looks too unnaturally pink for me. who says that browner nipples indicate masculinity? nipple color is more dependent on ethnicity than anything else.
