Men Do You Realize That When You Stare at My Chest At Work |
|
You are being unprofessional. I think you are stupid because only stupid people stare at boobs long enough to get caught. You are also sexist. Probably cheat on your wife. Have very little career potential.
I make these judgments of you merely because I can.

27. As a devout people watcher I have to say |

that staring is really tacky. It doesn't matter who you stare at, or why.
Though, I am probaby guilty at times. Some people are just so fascinating or beautiful/handsome that I'm in awe.
Like when I saw this goth guy wearing a torn shirt on the subway yesterday. He had the most beautiful abs and chest... :P

just how unintelligent folks think I am because I work out a lot.
I solved a problem yesterday that's been nagging this company for a year in regards to the transmission speed of the scanner they use. Took me around 5 minutes to find a solution. "I had no idea you were so smart." I've only been there 3 months...maybe that's it.
I would also never consider a female that looked hot to be stupid or a slut. Just hot.

If a woman wears extremely revealing clothing, men will have a peek - it isn't really appropriate to expect a different reaction. It's a pretty natural reaction.

but if you walk around in a halter top or in something that's deliberately revealing, don't be suprised if certain men stare at them. No, it's not right, but in this society it's certainly not unexpected.

I practically have to wear my husband's XXL shirts in order for my breasts not to be stared at. I am not anywhere close to being that big. I am still underweight and have big breasts anyway. Maybe, I should just wear a burka.

It's a perfectly natural thing for men to stare at large breasts, just like it's perfectly natural for them to look at a beautiful woman, or a woman to check out a handsome guy or one who has a really nice body. It may bother some women, but for those who wear skimpy, revealing outfits then get all bitchy when men notice are just really flakey to me. :shrug:
I don't have humungo breasts, but they aren't small (full C here), so maybe I just don't understand what it's like to have double D's...but I guess I wouldn't let it bother me all that much. I tend to take it as a compliment - if a man thinks I am physically attractive, or have a nice body, then that's a compliment. I spend a good deal of time staying in shape, so appreciate it when others notice. And, there's nothing wrong with being physically nice for the opposite sex to look at, and it's even better when you know you've got the brains too :)

I am able to aprehend the full beauty of a sufficiently vertiginous cleavage and resume eye contact before any perv-detecting procedures can even begin.
I guess that's what "being professional" is.

People have different concepts of "appropriate"--especially across generational lines. Most tops my parents might consider "extreme" I wouldn't bat an eye at. So while a given style of top might have had one social-consensus meaning ten years ago, it might have a totally different meaning now. Sex is the one area right now that allows younger generations to maintain some rebellion against the older folks. Midriff baring is appalling to my mom, for example. :D I think that gets in the way a lot of the time when it comes to arguments about what revealing clothing "means."

... I enjoy looking at a nice pair, most men do. But there is a way to do it and a way not to.
A gentleman, or a man posing as a gentleman, will glance at the delicious sight, form a mental image, and glance back when the image needs refreshing. The only reason to stare or ogle is that 1) you havent' enough free brain cells to store the beautiful image or 2) you are starved like a hungry dog and don't care who knows.
In any event, pity the boob-mesmerized. He probably can't help it :)

of showing their cleavage are also being unprofessional.
And no, I don't believe you are one of these, I'm just sayin in general.
And yes, men doing that are acting unprofessionally, but don't be overly hard on them, there is some serious genetic wiring and instinct at play that is hard for many to overcome. (though I do easily, breasts never distracted me. But exotic eyes, now for them I have a weakness)

If you don't want me to look at your boobs, then don't show them.
