Breasts are meant for FEEDING babies. Men have them, too. They're not genitals. And men don't seem to bother showing off their chest. But when women will show their pubic hair in public, I may call it equality.
Are you trying to say that breasts aren't sexual organs? . . . Oookay...
The point is you don't get to display your sexuality in a work space and then get mad when people notice it. At least not if men can't do the same thing.
cheshire23, I would say that breasts are more sensual organs than sexual organs. While making it more sexually pleasurable in some cultures, it does not necessarily have a necessary part in sex.
I agree with the second part in your comment, and would like to add that as much as I, as a female, would enjoy the extra attention, I would also would like that attention be reduced to a casual glance. Spending an entire conversation looking at my chest would be uncomfortable to the both of us.
They're actually defined as secondary sexual characteristics.
Really? I've never heard of anything like that before. What cultures are those?
Yeah that violates any normal person's sense of propriety. It just annoys me personally when women advertise themselves sexually and then get angry when men notice it. (I don't mean awkwardly ogling at someone.)
I agree with mythstory. Boobs are sensual, not sexual. Suits are our thing for everything. We only need a single suit for everything formal. Funeral coming up? Wear a suit. Wedding the day after? No problem, just wash the suit and it's good to go. It's your own wedding? Dude, just wash the suit and it's good to go. Dinner with your boss an our after you get home from the wedding? You know the drill. We only need one set of clothing for every formal event ever. It is also, however, the only formal outfit we have.
Women have a much wider choice in formal attire, which ranges from long wedding dresses to proper suits, with literally everything inbetween. Many of these show a little cleavage, but it shouldn't really be a problem as there's no innate sexual value in boobs. Just because they're called secondary sexual characteristics doesn't mean that they're sexual. They're just a sign that you're most likely looking at a woman and not a man.
