Question for the women out htere.

Say you are wearing a fairly revealing top but more or less clothed in public. Lets say something that shows a lot of cleavage. If a man you are talking to clearly looks down at your chest, remains with eye contact for a solid 2 seconds, then looks back up, but otherwise is speaking respectfully to you would you say anything? If so what would you say? Regardless of what you would say how would it make you feel or what would think when you notice it.

Similarly, and this seems odd cause I cant imagine a guy doing this and it would seem really awkward/strange to do. But would you feel its more respectful and more appropriate if the guy asked permission to look at your chest rather than just doing it? Does that just add awkwardness and make matters worse (what it seems like in my head) or would you see it as a sign of respect? How would they even ask permission in a respectful way "May I look at your breasts for a few seconds", that just seems weird to me to ask... but hey just curious.

I suspect most women just expect us not to loo, or to try to be sneaky about it?

@freemo

One thing I think is actually right about after seeing some interviews with feminists is that women sometimes dress provocatively for themselves, because they look good, not because they're trying to attract men.

But TBF it still baffles me that women often find men finding them attractive to be creepy by default.

@realcaseyrollins What is TRP? The first I am seeing it and when looking upt he hashtag it seems to mostly be posts by you or posts in a foreign language.

There is clearly a divide in how men and women thing, and this may come from being treated different. But long and short of it, men generally seem to be thrilled at being cat called or ask explicitly sexual things, at worst we can just ignore it. Things that would be totally unacceptable to a woman... So yea im not sure the logic of men will carry over here, cause if a woman stared at my crotch for however long Id be excited by that even if its a woman im not interested in.

@freemo It's short for the redpill, I didn't know it was an acronym until I saw @icedquinn use it.
