A member asked:

What does it mean when a girl's nipples are constantly hard?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to say: Male and female nipples may respond to sexual arousal, cold temperature, irritation from clothing, etc. They are delicate tissue and react to different stimuli. I'm not sure that you should make any assumption about why they are hard.
