I completely agree. Some women liked to be mentioned by their elegance, not by whatever was hanging out.

Imo, one thing is being attractive, but something completely different is being trashy (exposing way more than acceptable by refined taste standards, not even modesty ones).

There is an appropriate time and place for everything; some people just (pitifully) try too hard, and it (literally) shows.

^^^ exactly.

If the cleave line is more than an inch = tacky for normal everyday wear

And I don't want to hear it about how you can't dress normally. I am not flat/small chested at all and yet I manage to find bras that don't porno squish my chest into my neck. Save that crap for club night.

They show it because it is the quickest and second to easiest way to get a man's attention.No big secret there.
I think it looks skanky to show cleavege during the day. It is more of an evening out /dressier occasion kind of thing.Save it for a special occasion don't show it to every random dude that you come a cross on an average day.

Absolutely. Women show off their cleavage not just because it looks sexy but also to attract attention of men and anyone who denies it is not being honest. Although of course, some women don't know where the line is between sexy and trashy.

Cleavage is wonderful, like low pants and thong, gives just enough to give a little taste of what's below and still remain legal.

Ok so much of the time i do not want to show cleavage, but i am very large on top naturally, very large. Some clothing will just show the cleavage. whether i want to or not. I get looks all the time, not my fault, even if i try to hide them, my clevage still shows. Now when i am going out on the town, i will show my cleavage and have my tight little skirt on too. My hubby likes it, that is all that matters.

I don't think of it in anyway, it is what it is, i don't purposely show cleavage, some women, just can't hide it. Now when your going out on the town, and all dressed up, some clothing just calls for cleavage, it is nice to have it.

Yes you can hide it. You just need to shop Womens sizes not Misses. There is a 14W, 16W, etc. Cut more generously in the bust. I used to wear them before I list so much weight my blobs shrunk, too.

Women have been showing cleavage for thousands of years. It's just a part of fashion not much different than guys wearing sleeveless or very short sleeve shirts to show off their biceps. Back in colonial days men favored knee length pants to show off their calves.

Who originally said "if you've got it, flaunt it." ?

I think gay women probly show it for other women tho, not men

And some people like to "feel sexy," not necessarily have guys stare at them. Sexy clothes make some people FEEL sexy. And they feel good going about their day - just like maybe some women feel in business wear or workout wear that is more modest.

Guys look at girls - face it. (if they are hetero)

Whether they're young, old, single, engaged, married, blah blah blah... it's life! Usually when they see skin it catches their eye - but they'll also look at a pretty face, or just tight clothing.

Like i said in another thread - i see tons of MINI-short shorts and skirts - and i'm MUCH rather see boob than crotch

Could it be a pathological condition


LMFAO


I have boobs that are on the rather large side so if im wearing some a little low cut I have lots of cleavage compared to a woman who isn't so top heavy.
