That isn't a guy thing, it is a people thing. Heterosexual women can't help but looking at another women's breasts when they have erect nipples protruding from their shirts. That is why you wear thicker bras at work. Then if it gets chilly, no one knows you are cold.

A few years ago, my sister was sent to an event to raise funds for her organization. Each of the not-for-profits that were in attendance were supposed to walk around the party and ask for money for their particular causes. A good 95 percent of the attendees were gay men.

She made more money than any other single fundraiser there. Her organization came in second, behind an organization that had 11 people out there hustling for money.

As she was picking out her clothes, she commented that men in general are fascinated by breasts, and it didn't matter if they're gay or straight. She wore a low cut dress and a push up bra. Granted, the girl can charm pretty much anyone, but she attibutes a lot of her success on that particular occassion to her rack.

I guarantee you there is a secretary at your firm like that. You just think she is beneath you, therefore, you don't count her as a woman of "your acquaintance." Get your nose out of your partner's ass every now and then and get yourself "acquainted" with some of "little people" at your office, sweetie.

My secretary happens to be a man (oops -- another false assumption!) -- so he doesn't really dress to show his boobs off.

OK, that is a histrionic response if I ever saw one. I never said that it had to be YOUR secretary or that only at YOUR firm are there secretaries like that as you imply. There are secretaries like that at EVERY firm. They might not be YOUR secretary, but they are SOMEBODY'S secretary. Jesus, talk about self-focused. Do you think every comment is a reference to yourself? Sounds like me calling you an ass kissing snob hit a little too close to home, eh?

No I didn't say that. I said there ARE secretaries at your firm. That doesn't mean that it is HER secretary or that ONLY at her firm are there secretaries that act like that. Good reading comprehension seems to be a rare skill on this board.

It just makes me grin with pride when I can hit the nail on the head and peg someone as an ass-kissing snob so easily. You know when someone has a reaction like that, you hit way too close to home for their comfort.

It makes me uncomfortable when they wear low cut shirts, come into my office, and lean their bodies over while talking to me so it is all but impossible not to look down their shirts. It makes me even more uncomfortable when they begin to do it after they have become aware I am gay.

As it is inappropriate to be staring at any length at someone else, it is, to my mind, inappropriate to be shoving your breasts in my face. At least wait until we are on a first name basis.

Does this make me old fashioned? Yeah, it might. But oh well.

And I do have a right to find something inappropriate, don't plan on changing my conservative self in that regard, thank you for the advice however.

I didn't realize that you were saying that they had some nefarious motivation behind their dress. I agree if they are doing it because they think you will be attracted to them and give them a better grade for it, that is different. And it is gross and inappropriate. I would be offended, too.

As I have posted here before, I keep my body to myself and my b/f. I don't dress provocatively in public. My point to everyone here is that there are women who do and they do it because they want male attention. Apparently, some of them do it to get female attention when they think it will get them better grades. Yuck!

She is not trying to show you. She is trying to ignore you. She is probably doing an excellent job.

The audience for your "wit" grows smaller by the post.

I am sure that there are. That goes back to my point on there being different fashion mores. I don't think those students of yours who don't have the nefarious motivation even realize that they are making anyone uncomfortable. They have been fed a diet of MTV from the day they were born. I think they have been de-sensitized by seeing breasts and sexuality displayed overtly everywhere they look. It seems normal to them, not sexual.

I wasn't kidding when I said I have seen nice girls wearing sexy shirts at funerals. It was the daughter of the dead guy. She was 22 and a very sweet kid, and I bet she didn't realize that wearing that shirt would have been considered inappropriate by anyone there. It was a black low-cut shirt, and I am sure she picked it because she thought you are supposed to wear black to a funeral, and that was a black shirt she had in her closet. Perhaps if her mother had not been grieving the sudden loss of her spouse, her mother would have said something.

Since the ignore feature does not notify the ignoree of the ignoring by the ignorer, we need an "I am ignoring you" emoticon. It should look like a younger sibling with her hands on her ears shouting "I am ignoring you I am ignoring you nananananana!"

Of course, unless you're lying when you say it, you'll only get to say it to the ignoree once.

Rickey: I really like him. It's unfortunate that Randy and Simon didn't. I wouldn't be surprised if he were in the bottom three. I just hope he outlasts Kim C.

Carmen: Really cute. Seemed to have fun. This is the first time I didn't actively dislike her. Simon finally admits she's "commercial".

Kim C: STOP YELLING AT ME!!!! Paula is right. She put it in a much nicer way than I would have though.

The Elf: I actually wasn't overly impressed with Clay... other than his voice was as good as usual. He's consistent, but it wasn't disco. I thought Simon was a little too harsh.

Trenyce: With this and movie theme week. I feel like she isn't doing so much of her own interpretation as she is trying to copy Whitney.

Ruben: Very good... ecxellent song choice. Hate to admit it, but he's definitely more versatile than Clay.

Kim L.: Wow. That was TERRIBLE. She had better be in the bottom 3 with that performance.

Josh: Also really bad. He probably has too big a fan base to hit the bottom 3, but that performance warrants it. I also think that he probably wasn't really sick. He just said "yeah" when paula mentioned it. Disco "Joshified" sucks ass.

Overall, I thought it was a pretty weak show. Randy was right when he said it had too much of a karaoke vibe.

Looking...
 
While all of this talk about ogling women is interesting, it obscures the main issue of the day... which is the release of Elephant by The White Stripes. Turn off the computer, stop watching American Idol, and get your copy today.

It seems that the discussions here on the topic of ogling/leering/watching women center on four different individuals: the Gentleman, the Lady, the Cad, and the Floozy. Those who don't leer and don't seek to be the object of leering comprise the first category. Those who leer and catcall and those who hope to be the object of leering and catcalling fall into the later category.

Of course, there might be a fifth category- composed of women who cringe at the thought of the schlubby looking upon their precious form, but who hope/expect/demand that hot firefighters/businessmen/rockstars notice and approach them. They are, of course, the Dreamers.

Rickey: I love him. It's impossible to sing the Philip Bailey and Maurice White parts, but he did a really great job.

Carmen: Her song didn't exploit her vocal weaknesses. She's very marketable. But that doesn't mean I have to like her.

Kim C: I thought she did a good job for her. She should front a band, not be a solo pop singer.

Clay: Meh. Not a good song for him. He needs training so he stops over-enunciating.

Trenyce: She gives me goosebumps. Her voice is wonderful.

Ruben: Defintely the class of the competition. He did so well. Also, goosebumps.

Kim L.: "Wow. That was TERRIBLE. She had better be in the bottom 3 with that performance." I couldn't agree more. She's scary bad. There is a big difference between what they hear live and what we hear. It must be enormous to counter her crappy performance. She has a nice voice, she just cannot sing. (A little rhythm would help.)

Josh: Yuck. He should go home.

Overall, the stage performances are definitely improving.

I see Rickey, Kim L., and Kim C. in the bottom three. Josh should go home, though he won't.

I got that feeling once. When I was a freshman in college doing an all night cram the week before finals in a building that was open 24/7 and sometimes gets homeless people, teenagers, and random whoevers, this skinny black homo walked up to me and started telling me that this orgy in a few weeks and that I should go. I had a deer in the headlights look for a few seconds and just told him maybe somebody else would be interested but I needed to cram for finals. If he was telling it straight, ain't no way no how I was going to some homosexual orgy. Not then, not never.

For the love of all that's good and holy, can we please cut to where there is just Trenyce, Clay and Ruben? I cannot stand Rickey, and he sounded horrible, IMHO. Carmen needs to just go back home and win her high school talent contests - she has done NOTHING to impress me either vocally or personality-wise. It would be doing Kimberley C. and the world a big favor if some producer from Branson would call her to ask her to return to her own show there. Kimberly L. was meh, and seems to be faltering in confidence. Josh... I don't think I even need to say anything. At the end when they were showing them in the red room, Josh seemed to be mentally packing his bags.

Ryan's writers and stylist ought to be fired.

Trenyce and Ruben definitely have staying power. Clay might have a couple minor hits, but I think he's more likely to go back to his normal life and just be a nice guy.
