It’s 2018! Why are we still so uncomfortable about calling nipples ‘tit-hats’?

I have two. You have two. OR MORE – that’s fine – it’s 2018 (see above). Dogs have, like, eight?

I could go on.

Harry Styles has four. Jennifer Aniston made them hip again in Friends. Fish don’t have any.

I am, of course, talking about nipples, nature’s answer to the humble tap. Walk down any street in Britain shouting “NIPPLES!” and you’ll be met with knowing smiles, a handshake, perhaps a friendly pat on the back. Yet, despite our liberal, forward-thinking times there is still one final nipple taboo:

‘Tit-hats’

It may only be two syllables, but its impact can be devastating. We’ve all seen the scathing, vicious attacks in the media against anyone brave enough to use the term, but that’s about to change thanks to a new group of campaigners dubbed TrutHers (TH capitalised for ‘tit-hats’- ed).

“We’re determined to end the stigma attached to tit-hats”, says Felicity Beck, 29, one of the campaign’s most vocal leaders, dressed in the usual TrutHer style; baggy camouflage trousers, military style jacket, a massive hat shaped like a boob.

“I encourage anyone reading this to sit down with their elderly relatives; or anyone else they know in generation nipples, and start a dialogue. It’s only through these difficult conversations that we can bring about real change.”
