nippling

nippling
 n.— «Then there is her nipple: a salacious nub straining against the nylon of her red one-piece. Its appearance marked the advent of “nippling.” Whenever a model applies ice to her breast before a photo shoot, she’s paying homage to Farrah.» —“Touched by an Angel” by Kevin Hoffman Scene (Cleveland, Ohio) Aug. 3, 2005.
