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).

    I have always wished my nipples were more pink. I never thought about tattooing them. I think these turned out nicely. I don think the boobs really look wonky, just like they haven settled in yet from the surgery.

    Also, she has beautiful collarbones.

    Actually, shannon, I’m a girl so I think my experience with breasts is fine, and I don’t have “too much” experience with boob jobs, since I consider my breasts to be fine and I don’t need a boob job. I do enjoy looking at plastic surgery programs and anatomy since I do figure drawing a lot.

    I don’t know why everyone gets so offendedon this board. To me, I didn’t think the results look too great. Yes I understand that it is hard to do a good boob job, on a man. ESPECIALLY, since these isn’t much to work with in the beginning(liking working on an A, cup).

    I pulled another friend to look at them and I didn’t even tell her the issue, and she thought the nipples were placed awkwardly, which is very common in these surgeries. The doctors tend to place the nipples higher to create a perky look although it often just looks odd. That’s fine if everyone likes them. I hope that she (I’m assuming the term she wants used) is really happy with the procedure and that she continues her transformation.

    I mean to offer a compliment the clevage area looks amazing, it’s just the shape and the nipples that seem off.

    i’m wonder if the weirdness of the breasts could be attributed to the fact that the implants haven’t settled yet? i know they usually “fall” after a while, becoming more natural – just a thought. as for the nipple colour, it looks a bit odd; i have never seen nipples that pink. maybe my own should be pinker….

    but this is what the tattoo artist said on his page about the experience: “this is a tattoo I didn’t really have control over as far as getting the ink in because IT was all trying to get up on my junk ……….AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH”

    wonderful.

    Hahah Zar, my boyfriend’s nipples are really pink too! He’s a redhead though so I think that’s why.

    I think these are a nice pair 🙂 Sure, the nipples look a bit high, but so long as the client is happy then who cares? I hope she gets a lot of joy out of her new boobies and cute little pink nips 😀

    They look a bit too pink to me. It’s not a shade that goes too well with the natural skin tone, does it?
    I can’t help but thinking of Palahniuk’s “Invisible Monsters” and how this would come under the category of “Male perception of womanhood” if that makes any sense when referring to a transexual….

    I love it how most of the people who’ve commented have had really positive things to say, it’s great!
    It’s important for trannies to have positive feedback from people, I should know I used to live as a woman and take hormones etc. You can easily get really sensitive to comments about your appearance, given that the appearance is what you’re trying to change.
    Of course I don’t claim to speak for all trannies (some might not give a rat’s ase), and I’ve been back to being a happy man for 10 years now, but I just think it’s great that the mod community is indeed mostly very encouraging and celebratory of people’s choices.
    YAY!!!

    i don’t even see what’s so weird about how the nipples are shaped. they look fine to me. and as for the color, it’s pretty bright. maybe it’s fresh and the color will be less vibrant and look more natural after a while.

    and also, i got really excited when i saw her mole/beauty mark thingy, because i have one in the exact same spot. she has a very pretty clavicle, too.

    the boob job is not “wonky”—> after breast implants are placed it takes months before they settle down and adapt a normal shape and placement

    I know I am being super-sensitive (and risk the ire of the bme community) but I find the idea that pink nipples = feminine really offensive. While I recognise that this may all be part of a complete transformation for the individual, a shift from what was before perhaps, but the comments on this forum (for the most part) indicate this same equation of girly with pink. My nipples have been brown since birth so it’s not a youth thing, nor a feminine thing, nor (even) an aroused thing.
