Well, to continue about cleavage, I think women's fashion goes through phases. So a somewhat low-cut neckline on a dress, or a blouse unbuttoned to a tantalizing level, some women think of this as mere fashion, they don't think of it as teasing.If it's not overdone, it's ok. But the kind of clothing I was talking about in the earlier post goes well beyond what could be called fashion. So again, one wonders what the point is. I guess that's how they think they'll get a bf. I'm surprised the banks and other offices allow it. Whatever happened to dress codes? Whatever happened to business attire?

There's still plenty of places like that.

It's the pretty young things coming up who are going to change it all.

I don't know if you've been out and about lately but some of those girls are barely wearing anything at all. It's like they leave their pants off.

As I've noticed during my career, most women can use there shape perfectly. One girl I work with is very pretty, slender, but she does tend to "over do it" in other aspects. She gets a tan almost every other day, which her skin looks almost like light leather and getting too dark by the day. She wears really nice cloths that accentuates her figure.

I haven't seen one woman yet that really over did it.

I take that back, there was one. She was amazing, though; Russian, tall, tanned, muscular (not like the picture a few pages back), nice legs, blonde and a rack that wouldn't quite. Her main dress of choice usually was something that shown her arms, shoulders and about 5in of cleavage and something that pushed them up really high. I said to a co-worker, "Who's her husband, Steven Tyler from Aerosmith?!" He had the confidence to talk to her, I didn't. However, on the flip side everybody had to know her name, she was the speaker for all conferences with customers; unless they were on the phone. She was in front all the time when there was a picture to take. She craved the attention and couldn't be without someone staring, gawking, talking to her/about her, and/or drooling.

We all send mixed signals. There's always a reason.

So it seems pretty apparent that women show their cleavage to attract men, get noticed and feel confident. But here's the thing that bugs me, is the women that show off their boobs and then proceed to get annoyed at guys checking them out. I mean if a guy is just sitting their gawking, sure I can understand being mad at that but if a guy checks you out while you're wearing some low-cut top that's showing off your stuff do you really have a right to be mad about it? Guys naturally like boobs, even women seem to have an interest in boobs, apparently not in the same way as guys (unless they're gay) but the point being, women can't expect us guys not to look.

Here is a more extreme example, and a made up one but I think about it when this topic comes up because there's some truth to it. There was an article in the onion (if you don't know, the onion's a newspaper that pokes fun at real news like SNL does with their news skits) where they said something like (I don't remember the exact writing) "Two girls at the something something bar drank heavily and decided to dance on the bar. They then proceeded to take off their tops and make out with each other. Several men at the bar starting cheering and staring, which was followed by the women yelling 'stop staring you perverts!'".

Again, that's an extreme example but gets to my point.

One other thing that I want to point out, it seems to me that some girls are totally fine with a guy checking out their boobs if they like him but if they see a guy they're not attracted to checking them out, they treat the guy like a total scum bag. I've had both happen to me, where the girl was practically pulling her boobs out at me and also a girl covering them up when I looked for maybe a few seconds.

Anyway, I feel like I just wrote a report on the subject, but it's something I think about from time to time and I think a lot guys and girls think about it. Or maybe some girls don't think about why they do it, they just do, I don't entirely know! Thoughts? Comments? True, not true? I'm interested to hear.

The way it was explained to me by a woman was, they want you to look if they find you cute (which you won't know until you look and then get a smile or a scowl). I work at a college and the female students often show off their cleavage/boobs, of course they complain about the professors they don't like leering, but not about the ones they do like looking. I think they are mainly showing for the boys their age. The female co-workers are showing off for the men they like there. Once in a while I will meet an interesting woman there but overall It's pretty boring. It's fun to look at the boobs, but you know, in a subtle way. Leering is tacky.

What-ever!

Bolded above.

There ya go. It isn't only women who behave this way, but I DO find it tends to be a bit more pronounced among women than among men. Then again, that could be regional. More and more I'm finding behaviours really are, and what is the norm in one area leaves another area completely aghast.

But the truly attractive, fit women rarely show much cleavage!(?) It is usually the ladies with nothing else to offer physically who trot their boobs out. Repulsed guys sometimes have difficulty putting their eyes on something decent.
