Protruding nipples = ready for sex?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Any stimulant: Although sexual stimulation or anticipation may result in erect nipples, there are many other potential reasons why nipples may protrude that are unrelated to sexual preparedness. Cold is one example.

Not necessarily: There can be any number of reasons that nipples can become firm and erect (protruding). Sexual arousal is of course one reason but not the only one.
