"Wrong or not exactly right I do love my journey home in the summer when I'm standing up or they bend down. occasionally I'll get at full boob view, but mostly sexy bra shots. It's wrong to stare. Lol " I'm 5'4" and can't help the fact I'm eye level with the nipple on an average woman. Does this count as perving | |||

" If a lady goes bra less in a loose dress, she has to accept that she will be stared at if she bends over. No she doesn't. Doesn't have to do anything of the sort " I think that she should accept that all men are not gentlemen. I personally try not to look...but I am human. However, there are some real pigs who just stare. Always expect the worst and you can't be surprised. Live in an idealistic bubble and you will soon have it burst. | |||

"I agree totally. But belittling someone on there own thread is also bad taste " Well that game could do on and on. Patronising and accusing someone of belittling someone else because they disagreed and expressed their differing view (whoever your comment was aimed at) could also be considered bad taste. | |||

We should also have signs saying "please don't r*pe me too" Now you are being silly, plus best not to mention that as discussing it is against forum rules. " I apologise for mentioning it. I disagree that I am being silly. | |||

"Please don't make it too obvious. Public transport is tricky enough with men rubbing against you. I want to be able to have my cleavage on show because it's my choice. I like the view. We all like the view I hate guys who rub up against ladies on public licence transport. Lowest of the low. But eyeballing their cleavage or peering down their top is okay?" Dam right it is | |||

"You honestly go out without a bra and don't expect people to look? I popped to the shop a couple of evenings ago, didn't bother putting my bra on and knew they would be looked at. It's no big deal to me. Some women feel uncomfortable when being looked at for the clothing they wear. Surely it is my choice to dress how I like without anyone saying 'well if you dress like that, you're asking for it'? That's the sort of thing I hope will become as unfashionable as drink driving and flares. If I felt uncomfortable wearing something I knew would attract unwanted attention, I wouldn't wear it. If you're walking around with your tits swinging about you will get people looking. It's nothing to do with living in the 70s, it's common sense. People don't change because of the decade they live in. I disagree. I think that's incredibly outdated thinking.

"Going to go against my usual line here... If a lady goes bra less in a loose dress, she has to accept that she will be stared at if she bends over. If I wore shirts and no keks, i would expect everyone to look...in the opposite direction i always go braless and do not expect to be stared at - I go braless now and then and I'm never taken aback when man or woman looks. Even with a bra on men and women look; I don't feel offended, I have great tits. im not offended just dont expect You honestly go out without a bra and don't expect people to look? I popped to the shop a couple of evenings ago, didn't bother putting my bra on and knew they would be looked at. It's no big deal to me. it was the way it was worded - if a lady goes braless and bends down she has to expect to be looked at - my mind went to the if a lady wears a very short skirt she deserves all the unwanted attention that brings -- i wear no bra not cos i have great tits - because i dont - i go braless simply because i feel too enclosed by them - i personally am not offended but myself or any other braless woman should not expect to be gawped at So it's gone from looking, to peering,to gawping. People not dressing in a sensible fashion should expect others to look. What's a sensible fashion? Not having your cleavage showing, not wearing short skirts or dresses, that don't leave much to the imagination. It's why we tell teenage girls to change their clothing when they go out. You show flesh, people will look. Don't complain unless they touch. " See further up about polo necks and jeans. How short is the short skirt? I am only dressing sensibly if I have my ankles and arms fully covered? Which bit of flesh is it safe to show? I can't wear the burqa and niqab because that is also offensive to some, it would seem. | |||

I hope people will change - we no longer do public executions and bear baiting, so maybe one day women can wear what they like without being judged. You can look without judging. I don't feel uncomfortable when people look at my cleavage or legs; bear in mind we are talking about people just having a look. Not leering, peering, or gawping. I've done it many times myself when women walk past in next to nothing. I'm not judging them, they have caught my attention. th op asked if it was ok to stare No he didn't, he said it's wrong to stare. Which would be rude. Having a look is one thing, staring is rude.

I'm going to agree to disagree (vehemently) with the idea that women have to police/repress their behaviour in terms of dress to ensure not being ogled/harassed or worse. That's the point I have issue with. They are not walking down the street topless in this discussion. Anyway, we can agree to disagree. I hope thinking moves on. | |||

" If a lady goes bra less in a loose dress, she has to accept that she will be stared at if she bends over. No she doesn't. Doesn't have to do anything of the sort I think that she should accept that all men are not gentlemen. I personally try not to look...but I am human. However, there are some real pigs who just stare. Always expect the worst and you can't be surprised. Live in an idealistic bubble and you will soon have it burst. Do you extrapolate your thinking to the old "r*pe victim should have not worn the slutty outfit, she had it coming" argument? She should *have* expected the worst and been pleasantly surprised she wasn't r*ped? Oh come on. How long are you allowed to stare at her breasts before you become a creep, what's the cut off mark?" I look at cleavage when it's on show. Just discreetly. If I wear a low top, I know guys(and women potentially) are going to look. I don't think it's something to bother about. When a guy thinks my low top is an invite to try to touch, then he's going to learn he's wrong. That for me is where the lines crossed, when they encroach on my personal space. | |||

" I'm not talking about a discreet, surreptitious look, that the person is unaware of. But the OP was" And I "discussed" first (rather than just stating my opinion in one statement) in response to a later poster's comment around clothing meaning the female should expect the behaviour, not the OP. So that's moot. | |||

Personally if i wear low cut tops then im inviting looks. " What do you mean, "it's good for people to look"? I don't understand. What reasearch? | |||

" I think again, that's not the direct comparison. I'm going to agree to disagree (vehemently) with the idea that women have to police/repress their behaviour in terms of dress to ensure not being ogled/harassed or worse. That's the point I have issue with. They are not walking down the street topless in this discussion. Anyway, we can agree to disagree. " Do you honestly think that men don't look at a woman if she is more covered up? you will be looked at whatever you wear. My OH loves legs so would always have a sneaky peek at women in short skirts, yet my ex loves bums so he loves a woman in trousers/jeans....it won't matter what you wear, men like to look, just like women look at men. | |||

" I'm not talking about a discreet, surreptitious look, that the person is unaware of. But the OP was Careful...youbare at risk of getting back on to the original topic and sacrificing a later posters agenda. " What agenda? I responded to your comment on the thread of women having to be responsible for another's behaviour. I felt that was a rather concerning comment, even if you made it flippantly. Was that comment you made not moving the thread away from the OP somehow? It's a discussion, that's allowed surely? | |||

To be fair this comment "But eyeballing their cleavage or peering down their top is okay?"as well as your comment of being objectified was in direct relation to the OP and was well before any other comments. As you say, you like to own your comments, then own the first ones you made. | |||

As you say, you like to own your comments, then own the first ones you made." I do. I don't like being objectified like a piece of meat. That's not saying I believe the OP is doing so, it's a response to the themes of the thread -- or are we not allowed to have tangential thought? I'm sorry, to have fallen foul of something here that makes no sense to me just because I am posting an opinion. The eyeballing was in response to the secondary poster. It was extrapolating from the expectation needing to be held by a woman if she wears. I'll leave this thread if you feel I have overstepped? | |||

" I was answering the OP. which is nothing like you describe . Most men and women have a sneaky peek, to be honest you are coming across as if you don't actually like them even having that and that was from your very first comments. Inferring a glance is more than that or could turn into more than that is way OTT for me. I didn't see anyone say they encourage people ( I say people as women do it too )to look down womens tops, but you have to accept that human nature means we all do. Most people do it without anyone actually noticing. I quite like the attention I get when my cleavage is on show ( I am 56 so have to take any I can get ) and I do know that if it is on show, it will be looked at. If I didn't want it looked at I would cover up, but they would probably still look at my boobs. It is nature, we can't change it and as long as they are sneaky peaks I really don't see a problem. | |||
