Is this a common problem? I’ve worn all kinds of thing in contact with my nipples, but nothing ever happens! Bra, no bra…no chafing, ever. I run inside only, and back when I ran outside, it wasn’t cold weather, so is it a coldness thing? ---

Would female saliva work then, d’ya think? If it was applied liberally enough? ---

Er, no, Carmex is a medicated-type lip balm. I dunno what you’re thinking of. ---

I’m not allowed to play with my guy’s nipples. :mad: Me either. He says it tickles. (My guy, not yours. Well, I suppose I’m not allowed to play with your guy’s nipples either.) ---
