Women that wear revealing tops and hides with a jacket

[maciesmom]

Get over it, I say. Men like good looking women--don't like it, stay inside.
Tough. Quit being so sensitive. Men stare--so what? It bothers you? You're being
too sensitive, toughen up, woman up, and shut up.

If a man was staring
for a LONG TIME and gazing like he just saw Hailey's Comet or something, okay,
but it's really ridiculous how certain women get SO upset at a man shooting an
occasional glance your way. So freaking what? Men are men, that's what they are,
and there's nothing wrong with it--even if it bothers you. That it bothers you
just means you're being stupid, to be quite blunt about it. A man comes in here
and just what he likes--so what? It's not like he was grabbing your cheeks or
groping you. If it makes you feel that way, then your feelings are STUPID,
frankly

Interesting that women are supposed to "deal with it" (ie change their perceptions or feelings) if they don't like how a male (I won't say "man" in this case because real "men" care about what women think and feel) behaves toward them - but males should not have to change their perceptions, feelings or behaviors because "men are men, that's what they are and there's nothing wrong with it--even if it bothers you." Women's feelings are stupid and men's feelings are fine because they just "are who they are"....gotcha.

Scary thing is, this is coming from a married father of young daughters....

I don't think most women care if men look at them. It's their attitude about it that's objectionable. It the idea that women are teasing men by wearing a light jacket and they need to "pee or get off the pot".

I get that some men may want to see more skin and are confused by fashion choices women make, but most men don't demean women about it.

Right. Most women get that men are going to look at women, but what's objectionable is some men acting as if women exist to be looked at. The whole "boys will be boys" attitude that men are just going to do stuff and it's women's problem if they don't like it that's at issue. It's used to sweep all kinds of bad behavior under the rug.

Yes, I agree...which is why I differentiated between the attitudes of some "males" and men.

The OP is not here to discuss fashion; he's here to complain because he can't get his jollies when women wear long sleeved sweaters over their tank tops.

You don't get it at all. But you just go ahead and dig yourself even deeper. It's kind of entertaining.

Exactly.

Yet, see her in a spaghetti strap tank-top or dress, and it's gorgeous. So--when they "layer," it's frustrating, because you are THAT close to being able to enjoy a view you like, but--close, but no cigar.

Ah, irony is such a beautiful thing ....

We can talk all we want; it just goes over their heads anyway.

Hell, if anyone should be confused, it's women being confused over men's fashion choices.

Oh, by the way, Mr. Beefcake, could you hike up your shorts an inch or two so I could see your thighs? Thanks ...

This whole thread is just disgusting. Leering at 14yo girls? Good grief.
