    Let's be real here...women show cleavage for attention, which is fine. The problem is that most of the time they receive unwanted and negative attention. Goes with the territory. If you like to good attention....then you have to expect the unwanted. And cleavage at work is never appropriate. Cleavage after 5pm....Hell Yeah!!

    That's complete bs. There probably are some women who show cleavage for attention but saying we all do it is c**p. That's like saying all men wear t shirts that show off their biceps and abs just because they want people to look. Which is, again, c**p. I'm actually kinda insulted. I wear what I feel comfortable in and not because I either want or expect attention. I'm aware that the very fact I have big boobs will make men look but they would look (and do) even if they were covered up. It's not all about attention.

    Preach it! I know women that wear outfits because they love the clothes. They do it to look good for themselves, not for men.
    To blame women and say "oh well they wore it, so they want us to look" is bull****. Men should have self control.
    It's like ****s that say "well she was wearing a short skirt, so she was asking for it.." Total bulls**t.
    Everyone loves to blame the victim because it excuses their own guilt. Weak.

    As a public service for the ladies of MFP, I am willing to offer a thumbs up or thumbs down on any questionable attire. Simple PM a few pictures, and as the trained professional that I am, I will reply with my unbiased opinion.

    ...to answer the OP's question, your profile picture would be bad at my office, but I think is fine if I ran into you at the mall or a grocery store. Can't imagine what all the fuss over the human body is anyway.

    When I was in high school I would always get detention or Saturday school because of the dress code. I couldn't help that I had more to show. :grumble: It was just the way that the shirts that I thought were cute were made. I thought it was really unfair. I have grown to love my girls (38DD) and I don't really try to show them off but they tend to show themselves off. :blushing: Do what you want, it's nobody's business. To each their own. You seem like you know when it is appropriate.

    If it gets the label "cleavage" then you're clearly not showing enough.

    Have you seen her profile pic? Its more nipple than cleavage and I wholeheartedly recommend it. Its not inappropriate. :)

    somebody said earlier, cleavage is fun.

    but to me, a woman with eyes that are filled with love, sincerity, and happiness, rocks!

    really, really, that's what counts.

    Bring on the ta-tas!!!! I love boobs :) I will also put in a disclaimer: This advise should not be taken when going to workplace, church, teaching Sunday School, or chaparoning a field trip for your 8th grade son's class :) Any other time, I believe the girls need freedom, air, and to hold themselves high with pride and not hang low in shame :D

    Absolutely. I have never worn anything to get attention for my cleavage. I HATE men ogling it, but as a 32J as I was at one point, there was literally nothing I could wear that didn't look like I was flaunting it. Having big breasts doesn't mean you want people to stare at them. I am finding it quite refreshing and also a little strange now that they have shrunk to a semi normal size (28F) that people seem able to converse with my face.

    Ok this just reminded me of the following from Busty Girl Comics: http://bustygirlcomics.com/tagged/comics

    I definitely think there is a double standard for sure, but of course cleavage has its place.

    WOW, that is SO TRUE! I used to get this with my sister all the time.

    In my opinion, I think its fine if you have nice breasts. My opinion again, I think it can look a little gross when the breasts are saggy or wrinkly.

    I can't really talk though, I have little itty bitties. I'm basing this on what I'd rather look at if your cleavage was in my face on the subway.

    Keeping show 'em off! For every person that gives you a dirty look, you probably made another 10 people very happy. No harm can come from more boobs.

    I don't get any comments, despite every shirt I own showing cleavage. I probably wouldn't at work, especially a professional job, but otherwise...I don't see a problem with showing cleavage. It's a really hot summer. Wear what keeps you cool. Let people get pissed off. It's probably just jealousy.

    I'm a DDD and I don't have problem with showing some cleavage. There's a vast difference between showing some cleavage and practically letting your sweater puppies roll out of your top. I've seen women of all cup sizes who pass that line and make it inappropriate and almost painful to look at because you swear the one time you look will be the point of no return and they'll come out to chat.

    That being said, a lot of people depending on age group and I suppose living area don't know the difference. They see the slightest hint of the "boob crack" and wrinkle their noses and cry slut. Those are the people you pray have defunct genitals.

    That comic is SO true, my god. Haha. Shirts that look totally fine on girls with smaller chests make me look like I'm trying to dress slutty.

    I don't see a problem myself, though i do agree that for most workplaces it would be inappropriate.

    Having been big busted all my life I have learned that you don't need to show cleavage to get negative comments or behaviour. You could wear a baggy turtleneck and some men will just stare, and some women will be rude. The men are easier to deal with.

    It's double standards all over the place. I'm a bigger chested lady and get comments all the time, work or not. It's totally not fair and you unfortunately have to deal with it, so you can either appease everyone and be hot, OR, you can do what's gonna make you the most comfortable.
    Boobs are boobs. As one guy said 'you would have to wear a garbage bag, but even then it would have to be inflated so your stuff wouldn't stick out, for no one to notice anything. Cant always hide them
