@flo I’m giggling away here :-) I meant our customers wearing very little lol, I work in retail and the idea that anyone could wear anything that reveals any more than maybe our chin, cleavage wise, would be severely jumped on by management hee hee. The sights I see on the other side of my checkout though….. wow just does not cover it.
I once served a very heavily pregnant young girl who was (almost) dressed in a tube top which almost covered her breasts and an elastic waisted pleated mini skirt pulled down at the front (thankfully) even though it meant her bump was bare (isn’t that dangerous? can’t she, or her baby, catch a chill or something) but because of being pulled down at the front, the skirt was waaaaaay too short at the back, and she was (i hope) wearing a thong because… well her bottom was being flashed to the entire store. Add to this she was not model sized, she was a very large lady, even without the bump. It was NOT a good look for anybody, less so for a mum to be.
@Hypocrisy_Central Hi honey <waves and throws mountains of hugs> I’m still here, not been coping very well with my dodgy health lately, so just trying to make it through my shifts at work has been leaving me me so exhausted. I have a couple of days off now till later in the week though thankfully, so I’m going to try to take things easy while I can and try to re-charge my little worn batteries.
Re the oogling thing being mostly confined to western men, I think you’re right honey. I hadn’t considered that in many places the sight of bare breasts would be almost commonplace, and would not command much notice really. Also, western men… I’m trying to be diplomatic here and not offend anyone, because I don’t mean to… well even men in their 40’s I know still seem not very mature? So, I agree honey, it is not a universal thing among men at all.
As to the women who can manage well without a bra, I am horribly jealous lol and of course they shouldn’t be bullied into wearing one if they don’t have to… again I am horribly jealous having not seen my feet properly since I was about 12 :-) I remember reading once about a test you can do to see whether you need a bra or not. It had something to do with being able to hold a pencil under your breast without dropping it? I think I could possibly manage to hold a pencil case under one of mine! I exagerate lol (a little) but in my next life I hope to have enough kharma to be a girl again but have the chest measurements of a small boy. I would so love to be able to wear little tops and summer dresses…. and seeing my feet when I walk would be nice too lol.
