I am not trying to make mountains out of molehills here but I have a very serious question concerning cleavage. Certainly a topic that has been brought up before and the "Seinfeld: episode with a young Denise Richards probably did a better job exploring the topic than I am about to do. But please, I need some help on this and it is either this or paperwork so help me out.

I encountered a female yesterday who was wearing something massively low cut. It's one thing if I was at a club or something but this was a place of business and, well to put it bluntly, she was about to fall out of stuff. So I'm trying my best to maintain a conversation and meanwhile, just below my peripheral vision, are the "pointer sisters" just hanging out, blam! So what is the proper protocol here. I am a happily married man and I'm not looking for anything else but when someone is so blatantly trying to display an aspect of their body, am I supposed to look? Ame I insulting her if I do not, seeing she has taken such great pains to display attributes she is obviously proud of.

I just don't get cleavage. If it is not to look at, what is it for? (Yes, I understand the whole lactating, nursing the young process but that is a different story). But why does some females outside of a social setting that is more inviting to cleavage-bearing (a bar,rock concert, other areas of attracting mates) insist on wearing a shirt so low it is below her pants. I'm not complaining, I'm just confused. I just don't get who it is for.

I know it is probably all Darwinian somehow but by and large guys do not do this. I mean sure there are the thong wearers at the beach and the whole gender has a lot to apologize for regarding Larry Blackmon of Cameo but guys don't usually wear clothing exposing our hoohaws to the bank.

So could we explore cleavage in this thread and get to the bottom of the issue.

Exposed cleavage is for men to look at and other women to be envious of.

Look away, bub. You're doing the right thing.

But how CAN you look away? You really can't. I say look and enjoy, it's being put out there so why not?

A friend of mine with huge tits tattooed in between them and got mad when people would look. I mean, are you fucking serious???!!!!! I think she just wanted to bitch

JustErin said:

that's just not possible...even if it aint the most attractive cleavage, you gotta look....even if just for a laugh...

CarrieLee said:

That's just cruel is she is well-endowed, wears low cut stuff AND has words written on her bosoms. It nothing else that whole instinct that compels people to read bumper stickers would kick in.

GottaLetitgo said:

EXACTLY!! I said to her how can you expect people NOT to look or ask what the Japanese writing between your tits means?!!

Oh shit!

I meant 'look away' like keep looking!!




Not 'look away' as in don't look.

Poor choice of words.

JustErin said:

Now I'm confused.

If I get a full endorsement of the Org females I may use that as license to occasionally peak as opposed to physically straining my retinas to maintain respectable eye contact.

Don't you have a dress code where you work?

Have clients complained? Or are you the only one who is bothered?

If the attire is unacceptable then she needs to be told. Some employers will tell their employees to go home and change.

I'm till laughing at how what I said came out totally wrong.

you're consistant...

Shut up and look at my boobs.

luv4u said:

This was not an employee, this was a customer. And my query is not a complaint just a clarification on the theory behind cleavage bearing in situations where it doesn't necessarily seem like bearing cleavage is called for.

JustErin said:

I do, all the time...

GottaLetitgo said:

Ohhh my bad

Maybe she just wants to show it off

I have no idea why women get upset when men look at their racks.

Lothan said:

especially when half of it may be exposed....

roodboi said:

that word is so funny

The way I see it, if they show cleavage, I'm gonna stare. If they don't want men to look they wouldn't wear it.

actionthisday said:

Exactly.

actionthisday said:

Exactly, that's why I carry two appled and a banana in my underoos.

Take a good look, look back at her eyes and smile; then get on with business

What's the whole view of taking a few pictures with a camera phone?

I kid.

JDInteractive said:

I Look, therefore I Am.....

I tend to look at it like this....I don't stare like I'm fresh out of prison...but I'm too old to blush when I see cleavage.....or to look away....

...the subject has come up during EO briefings that I've given, and someone made the point that looking and leering increase in the severity of offense as the attraction diminishes....thats to say that a woman being looked is less likely to respond negatively to the looks if the looker is someone she likes....conversely, if the looker is someone that she doesn't like or isn't attracted to, the response is overwhelmingly negative.....

just playing devil's advocate on this one....

CarrieLee said:

Im just being daft Carrie. Looking forward to Italy?

reneGade20 said:

Me too

yes I look at cleavage too

It it is very difficult to look away. It's like putting crack in front of a crackhead! Erin I'm ready for my fix, post some pics to livin up this thread. What is a cleavage thread without some of erin's cleavage?
