LMFAO
Good question.
The reason has something to do with the body trying to reduce the surface of the skin to preserve body heat. Other areas of your skin tighten as well, it's just not as noticeable.
High school science, I wish I remembered the specifics to give you.

Cold Hard Nipples

We were just created that way, I guess. Men's nipples get hard also, and even babies do. In the breast bone a person has a lot of sensory nerve endings and are very sensitive to cold, so the blood rushes in to keep them warm thus (nipple's get hard.) It is a great question though and I enjoyed reading some of the posted answers on here......LOL!

Good Question...
Same thing as goosebumps. When you get cold your skin pulls itself together to cause hair to stand up and provide better insulation. The Breast contracts, but the skin of the nipple is soft, so it stretches over the tissue below it, becoming erect.

as an extremity, the cold efffects them faster than other bodily areas so blood rushes there to protect them, so to speak. Thus the perky little nippies make an appearance for us. Ah, just love a real cold breeze on a warm summer night....hehehe!
pop! pop!

They are reacting to the cold just like men experience shrinkish when it is cold.

Surface muscles constriction. So many glood vessels in there when they get cold blood condenses and vessels and muscles shrink.
