Low-cut tops

Should women be allowed to wear low-cut tops in business?


Having had a number of business meetings with women who wear low-cut tops, it is most distracting in the environment of a business meeting because most people get distracted from the eye-to-eye contact and you find yourself looking down and gawping at the cleavage. This does not make for good business and I wonder if women do this on purpose and that's why I think it should be banned in the working environment.

It's a vicious circle. Those of us with boobage are encouraged to wear scoop/V necks as being more flattering to our shape. If we were to wear a high necked top, you may be even more distracted since the boobage looks even more pronounced generally.


Alternatively, get a pair of darkish glasses and then no-one will notice where you're looking or take up cycling and go to your meetings in lycra?

What a load of crap. Calling him a perve for doing what nature intended. Why show them off then? Silly person.

I think that's a very cheap shot calling me a perve for doing something that is naturally normal for most men. If I was to walk topless into the office showing my naturally rippling, toned, six-packed body, would you equally accuse a woman of being a perve for looking?

In my experience, people who say things like beautyofthebeholder are usually the most outrageous hypocrites...

Okay


Just to balance it out a bit in the tits vs cock stare out. There are "packet watchers" out there, I sometimes work with an interior designer in Chelsea & boy she is an unrepentant cock watcher however, I genuinely don't mind ,though I do tend wear firmer fitting trousers when I'm going there so as to distract her. She never quibles the quote, which is nice


Sadly she has nothing in the way of clevage to offer back but hey hoo, there's always the train home

Nope... flattering in general; giving lads a potential eyeful isn't the main aim. I will say that we're talking about DD+ boobage here really.


Basically, if you wear a high necked top (turtle/polo or even a classic T), then, if you've got boobs, they will be massively accentuated since there's just a big wall of chest with nothing to break it up - all you see is the outer curve of the boobs. If you wear a scoop/V-neck, the expanse is broken up and it makes big boobs look more 'average'. Same as why you shouldn't have a T-shirt with sleeves that stop at the line of your boobs - again, it makes that expanse of chest look bigger.


Conversely, small-breasted women do wear the T-shirts/polos since it accentuates what they have more.


Having said all that, there's still a fine line between enough of a scoop neck to improve your appearance and letting it all hang out so that no-one knows where to look. If it's so low that you look like your boobs might fall out at any moment, it's probably too low.

my personal opinion, its quite acceptable for the person having the meeting with the person with low-cut top to perhaps occasionally glance at said cleavage.


however.........it would be entirely different if they spent the WHOLE time staring at it and avoiding eye contact, yes?


PS. I think women look at eyes more than anything else...

    • A repetitive tried and tested cycle that seems to be slowing down in London thankfully. Brixton was the start. Councils consciously and purposely let an area decline until that area is next on the list for social and ethnic cleansing and ultimately gentrification. In come the first wave of arty/ creatives to squat and house share. A few coffee shops and cool but inexpensive cafe/ bars and art spaces open up. The crackheads, dealers and other assorted criminals who were once left to operate openly and brazenly to sell, shop lift, mug, beg, purchase,  publicly consume on decent folks doorsteps, stairwells,in bin sheds and without fear of the law begin to be targeted, rounded up and moved on. A few more jaunty and sustainable coffee shops/ bars appear . The Guardian and other facilitators in the media jump on the bandwagon, first claims of vibrancy are rolled out. Next step a few cool retro clothing shops pop up selling ' reclaimed Levi's for more than they originally cost and ten times the price of what the recently departed charity shop charged. Foxtons open a branch and the arty types and first wavers/ drivers have there first moan about there initially paltry rents going up. The guardian do a generic lets move to Brixton, Dalston, Hackney, Deptford, Walthamstow type double pager. Interview a graphic designer or two who have just bought a former crack den on the manor for next to peanuts. They will later bemoan the next wave who have more money than them. Cool, edgy and vibrant are now the buzzword bingo must use lingo. Few more coffee shops ( how original ) Pop up everything,. Organic and sour dough move in. The night time economy starts to thrive, more cool bars and eateries open. More squats and the last crack house that was once one of many are cleared out. Second wave is around the corner.   All of a sudden there's a visible police presence again and the streets are safe for fun seekers with plenty of disposable cash to chuck about on a dose of vibrancy with added coolness. By this stage even the locally brewed beer is organic. There's queues outside the newly arrived organic, sourdough, artisan and sustainable bakers. Instagram has Brixton trending. The greasy spoon of thirty year has gone cause the lease is up and the landlord has hiked the rents up by 60/70%. Followed by small family run independents that served the community  for decades and more.  The local characters, activists, eccentrics are getting less and less. There's a new show in town for a week or two and until the next brand arrives. Brewdog move in. Former job centres are converted into bars but peak edginess means it's still called the job centre. Followed by a couple more chain eateries. The resident DJ'S and music venues are replaced by another generic brand boasting guest chefs. The Guardian lifestyle section is now on it's fifth or sixth orgasm. Turn a few pages and hypocrisy is rampant with articles on the evils of gentrification, foxtons, capitalism, social cleansing and unaffordable housing. The middle classes continue to arrive in there droves to buy into the vibrancy and multiculturalism supposedly on offer. There isn't much multiculturalism going on at the packed latest place to eat, drink and fart. The multiculturalism on show comes in the form of bar staff, doorman and cheap as chips uber drivers and delivery workers. Rice and peas, jerk everything, red stripe at six quid a can from some hipster haunt that is currently flavour of the month and the place to be seen. The first wavers are now blaming the latest hedge funded brand that's pulled into town for driving gentrification and there soon to be hastened departure to be first wavers again somewhere else. Less cool but up and coming here we come. Covid has certainly helped/ been a factor in slowing down the process of gentrification. I also think it may be the driver for almost putting a stop to it. Remote working, less need to move to London to be near an office, less disposable cash, sky high rents, worthless degrees that relied on that disposable cash , different priorities, knife and gang crime and a large dose of much needed realism has put a huge spanner in the works for the shitty process and cycle that is/ was the gentrification and social cleansing of working class London. Manchester and Liverpool is next on the list for the planners. Thankfully.
