Women+Cleavage+Work= disaster?

[MacGuffin]

Show just as much skin at work as the men do. No more, no less.

Problem solved!

So can showing off your ass, by wearing loosely fitted pants, my dear. It's just not as flattering...kind of like wearing a v-neck or undoing the top button of your blouse.

I've got an idea, when any men bend over to pick anything up in front of you, they'll be required to wear a "lifting suit". This problem you describe surely doesn't happen very often, so this shouldn't be much of an inconvenience.

Cleavage, on other hand, is always visible due to its location on the body. It doesn't require any particular action for it to be visible, so it must always be covered. Always.

That works for me, but many women complain about how it's "uncomfortable".

Wear a bra with some oranges for a week, and try and find a blouse that is both flattering, comfortable and covers everything you want it to cover as a man, and we will talk

Seriously though, I figured people would be more desensitised to some human skin by now with all the adds and music videos out and about by now. How is it that showing a hint of cleavage is such a big deal?

Im not talking about showing almost half of your chest here, but I'm sorry, if I wear what you are suggesting, people stare coz i look so top heavy I might fall over. Wearing a V-neck with a hint of cleavage seems to draw far less attraction, tbh.

Cleavage has no direct affect on me, but it does on other, lesser, males. Women know this and many use it to their advantage. That's why there can be no exceptions.

If it's a problem, then you should speak up.

To me it is much like taking a cigarette break. I enjoy the view to break up a boring day. After that, I go back to work.

"Hey Lateralus, those tightly covered good-lookin' man-cheeks of yours are giving me a mental-hard-on and thus are a momentary distraction--oh whats that? you're reporting me to HR? "

 

[figsfiggyfigs]

I loathe when men do this. It is super creepy.

Exactly. This is what I was getting at with my photo of the Obamas and Bidens. I'm not even considering cleavage here, just arms and legs.

 

[Tiltyred]

Amar, do you work in an office? Have you ever worked in an office?

 

[Tiltyred]

Showing cleavage at work equals manipulation. I think less of women who do it and assume they're showing it off because they don't have much else going on. I haven't been wrong yet.

Yup. And I call bullshit on the "I can't find clothes to fit that will cover my boobage." My cup size is HH. I don't show cleavage at work.

 

[Amargith]

Amar, do you work in an office? Have you ever worked in an office?

I have worked as a receptionist and office assistant yes. And yes, Ive always covered up completely for fear of not being taken seriously. And yes, I was miserable, uncomfortable, overheating and felt awkward about people staring at me. And yes, I am *relieved* like hell that nowadays I no longer have to worry about that stuff.

Also, I never said I couldnt find clothes to cover my chest. I stated that a v-neck is a lot more natural looking and more flattering on me and I do show a little bit of cleavage due to the way my body is shaped and the size of my chest when I wear a v. But barely a hint.
