I am saying that people care little too when women show off skin. Men can just take off shirt with no problem as long we don't see their balls.

It was like being in a Romanesque cathedral as the fit young lovely walked to the car parked two from mine and then bent over putting something in the back seat. I wasn't leering either, as she was directly in my sight path as I approached my vehicle. I didn't look long but it was heavenly. The right amount of thrust surface and stress function.

#GrowingUpAGirl 'You're not going out wearing that.'Because obviously young girls in skirts are the problem. Not the men sexualising them.

Now excuse me while I go wash my eyes out with bleach.

I was quoting the previous poster who was stating that attractiveness had nothing to do with being harassed.

If you look like Kate Upton the chances that you are gonna be sexually harassed at work are very high even if dress conservatively.

This ^^^. When I was in Air Force, we had a female officer who said that after the run when the men took off their shirts she said "Until we can all take off our shirts to cool down, put your shirts back on." And, I agree and this was in 1975. No progress there.

I have seen women sexually harassed in every shape, size and color plus the shallow rating of 1 to 10. Will we ever get past "Well, she was asking for it." in my life time?

Seriously, if you aren't looking for it, you won't even notice. Just look away if it bothers you. I see all these really old guys at the grocery store looking to flirt with anyone that will look their way. Seriously grandpa......... Now, I remember the mini skirts when I was in high school and, ah, they could really reveal and turn more than a couple of heads. What about those tight sweaters I see on girls in the 50's like my mother wore?

Is this noticeable to most men, or am I just getting older and finding younger women less accessible, hence getting distracted in a different way? I'm 50+, for reference.
More tats too. Makes em all look cheap no matter how nice the wares are.

What I tend to notice is if the woman is overweight then dressing in a way that shows off her figure is gross; but if the woman is in great shape she's not gross, she's just slutty. I notice when women are the ones who have a problem with it, it's because they either need a reason to look down on someone (the heavier lady) or are jealous (the lady in decent shape).

I have nice legs, and I have no problem wearing something that shows them off. I've worked hard for them! Other things, I leave to the imagination. That's my personal choice. You wear what you want, and I'll wear what I want. Capisce?

Edited to correct a spelling. Really, it's okay to let me know here if I misspelled something. I'm a word nerd but stole that particular word from Uncle Jesse. I don't actually speak Italian myself. No need to correct me anonymously. I'm totally okay with learning
