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...

      Traffic shaking the gaff!

      By Spartacus · Posted

      This reads like an article in Gardeners World where Percy Chucker is discussing how he grew his SUV so big just using diesel based fertiliser and regular waywrimg 🤣   But point well made, they are getting bigger which is partly down to safety features that older cars didn't have but also marketing as adverts seen to push SUVs into the public eye.

      Recommendation for Phil – FourPawsDoors – Cat Flap Fitter

      By cat woman · Posted

      I highly recommend Phil at Four Paws doors for fitting a pet door. He has recently fitted a new microchip door for me in a very awkward tight spot. He came up with a solution for the problem of how to fit it within the space and supplied the appropriate flap as well as fitting it. The work was done within a couple of days of my initial enquiry. He was very friendly and helpful throughout and did not make a fuss despite having to work hunched under a desk and hitting his head several times!!!  His indepth knowledge was really beneficial and so much better than getting a general handyman to do it.  http://www.fourpawsdoors.co.uk/ m. 07814 406010

      Traffic shaking the gaff!

      By Earl Aelfheah · Posted

      Cars are getting bigger and heavier (new cars have become so bloated that half of them are too wide to fit in parking spaces designed to the minimum on-street standards. The average width of a new car in the EU and UK passed 180cm in the first half of 2023, having grown an average of 0.5cm each year since 2001). Speed enforcement is also pretty rare in practice and according to DfT stats, under free-flowing traffic conditions, 50% of car drivers exceed the speed limit on 30mph roads. Hopefully we'll see regulation to stop the car bloat arms race, and perhaps moves to use the same geofenced speed limiters deemed essential for electric hire scooters, but not currently SUVs. Would certainly be more effective and cause less noise, pollution and damage than speed bumps. Also the cost gets passed to the manufactures, rather than public authorities.
