Nipple Rings / Shield / Piercing

Though pasties are commonly associated with strippers , burlesque shows and erotic entertainment, they are also at times worn more casually as an undergarment and occasionally as beachwear. As an example of rarer use, in the annual " Go Topless Day " protests in the United States, otherwise topless female demonstrators wear imitation nipple pasties over their own nipples, to avoid potential prosecution under indecency laws. Pasties come in a variety of colors, diameters, and shapes. Pasties are usually applied with a special tape or glue fixative, often gum arabic. However, in some situations keeping pasties from falling off can be an issue, as can be their removal.
