There is a major difference twixt looking and drooling like a gut shot dog. Taking a second look is one thing but unabashed staring is rather inappropriate. Regardless of how a woman is dressed.. One can look without being creepy about it. Lol, I have actually seen women get angry because I wasn't looking ( at least not looking enough). Interesting phenomena. Nevertheless, if I'm going to take a second look at a woman because she is attractive, I'm not going to stare like an entranced adolescent. Proper etiquette must be observed

Because the current fashion is porn style - this goes for women of all ages. They are just buying what's being sold to them and what they see on tv. Even newscasters and educated professonal women in the media dress like whores. They wear tight, lowcut tops and dresses and 5 inch heels that they only wear on camera because you can't walk in them. But real women wear these clothes and try to walk around in those hooker shoes. They want to be empowered to look like sexy women while being taken seriously or something. So they get offended when they shove their half naked parts in your face and you notice. Yes, unless the guy is hot of course.

I used to go out clubbing with a barely dressed girl who would become livid if some lower guy looked at her and she really did not understand how this guy "dare" look at her. Idiot. (FYI: She now looks like a baby elephant.)

So if you look at half naked women and they yell at you it means that you are unattractive. If they do not yell at you it either means that you are attractive or you just did not get caught? I will have to keep this in mind and stare at at some half naked women to see if they yell at me. Then I will know if I am stiall attractive to anyone other than my wife right?

Oh wait, I do not care if I am attractive to anyoen other than my wife. . . .


but it sounds like a fun test anyway. I will have to try it. Where do I find these half naked women?

Staring like a 12 year old who just opened his first playboy is not a good look for any man

But there are degrees of decency...and I'm no buttoned-up prude.

A bit of cleavage or a well-fitting, tight dress is one thing...sexy is fine. Dandy, even. Subtle, alluring...sophisticated.

But a skimpy bikini top or bare butt, camel-toe hot pants trolloping about on the street...it's tacky. FOR SALE sign stamped on the forehead. All I can think is sad, sad, sad...

There, I said it.

Gotta go.

Have fun.

Concentrate on your calorie burning technique, not someone's behind when she bends over. There are rules in the gym, my ex-dude goes to, that states if anyone is making you feel uncomfortable, report it, and trust there have been many incidents like these that have been reported. So what if they're wearing short athletic gear. They make it, so some people choose to buy it and feel comfortable and cooler in it while working out. Personally, I don't get all into the athletic gear stuff. I wear loose shorts and long t-shirts in the gym, but if a boyfriend or a family member decides to go to an athletic store and purchase me a few items, as a gift, that are deemed 'short' or 'little', am I to tell them to take them back because I don't want the horny guys in the gym looking at me? No, I don't think so...

I do, however, feel differently, when females wear itty bitty clothes elsewhere, though, especially to clubs, and get mad when men look at them. When you're getting ready for the club, you usually already know what it is. You're going to be in the presence of a whole bunch of men, who are going to be drinking and acting aggressive. If you dress like a ho, you're pretty much going to be looked at like one and more than likely treated like one. If you don't want to go through that, then dress a little more classy.
- you cannot control other people's actions

- if you shout at a man for looking at you and eyeing you up, what is to stop him from shouting back? would you hit him? what if he hit you back? what if there were witnesses, who could corroborate in court that he was merely defending himself? what if he chose not to hit you back and went and told the police?

- and lastly, is it worth getting up your own blood pressure merely because a man merely is expressing physical attraction?

How about chewing you out for looking, when you're not looking? I was working at Subway, and the young woman orders her sandwich. As I start making it, she says, "I'm up here."

"Yeah? Well, all your fixings are down HERE."

Had the misfortune of encountering one of those way back when. The ones who have either come across it blatantly a lot or have an inflated ego tend to do that. I just let it pass, my initial thought was to say, "you don't know me lady, how cute is what matters to me physically and you should be living under the stairs to be honest".

But lets be honest, every guy looks. Even your SO who has never been caught, he still does. Just some men are better at being subtle. Admiring a woman's figure, good. Eye-humping until she catches you, bad. The difference is not getting caught .

I agree completely. Some men just make your skin crawl with the way they look...no they way they gawk at you. Like if you were locked in a room with him you'd be in danger.

I show some skin at times, and I prepare myself for the onslaught of stares or comments. It comes with the territory usually. I don't like the fact that I can't wear a hot dress to show of a great figure without some people feeling like they have the right to make me uncomfortable. At the same time I realize trying to make a political statement wearing spandex is pretty useless.

It bears mentioning that I have been stopped cold in my tracks by women dressed in revealing clothing that had NO business being so clothed. The reaction is somewhat akin to flipping over a log and finding a rattler curled up under it. YIKES!!. Not all women do Pat Benatar or the Flashdance look as well as some.
