My Eyes Are Up Here

I hate getting caught looking at some woman who is all dressed up fine, but seems offended when she attracts my attention. (And I am not just staring at any particular area or areas, I am just looking.)

Long ago I thought to myself, "Well, honey, you've got your lure in the water hoping for a bass, but you've got to know that there's a helluva lot more carp like me out here in the lake."

I understand women not wanting to be dehumanized. And we are all more than the sum of our individual parts. But it should be understood that humans are sexual beings. And it also should be noted that males are visually stimulated. As long as females are the object of our sexual desires then we're going to look. The fact that certain parts of the feminine body have been given greater taboo, sexually, in the American culture tends to cause men to imagine their appearance when not hidden. ("Ralphie, Ralphie, Ralphie. What is your fascination with daddy's Forbidden Closet of Mystery?" chief Wiggum) Americans who've worked in cultures that don't cover their breasts tell me that in time you don't even notice the nudity. I theorize that if women in America decided to go nude accept for their hands, which they didn't uncovered except in the most intimate of situations, then it wouldn't be long before guys began to fixate on womans hands.

@Joe Nation,
That works in reverse. Older woman stares at younger man. I gather we are supposed to get less interested in all this stuff, or become creepy..

My idea of younger man or interesting older changes, as it happens.

@ossobuco,
I worked with a married lady who's eyes wandered to my crotch way more often than what I was use to. This caused me to think that maybe her husband was less endowed or had an ED issue. We had a good working relationship but nothing more, and so I couldn't inquire into why she looked.

Also my wife and I attended a church where the music leader had a large package (I didn't notice, but the wife did). My wife was very curious and couldn't help but look. She told me that other ladies did the same to this guy. I just thought it was weird, and wondered if women had fantasies about that guys who were well endowed. I know guys think about a woman's anatomy a whole lot, and in very intimate detail too.

Guys tend to photoshop women in their minds, and so no amount of covering really ever helps.

Vindication for the wandering eye.

http://www.themedguru.com/20091206/newsfeature/stare-boobs-longer-life-study-86131320.html

Frankfurt, Germany, December 6 -- A rather bizarre study carried out by German researchers suggests that staring at women's breasts is good for men's health and increases their life expectancy.

According to Dr. Karen Weatherby, a gerontologist and author of the study, gawking at women’s breasts is a healthy practice, almost at par with an intense exercise regime, that prolongs the lifespan of a man by five years.

She added, "Just 10 minutes of staring at the charms of a well-endowed female, is roughly equivalent to a 30-minute aerobics work

There are many such reports. Also that hospital patients, specially male are to live longer when female nurses with thin white cloth are around them. But Imo it's not the sexual arousement per se, but the plesures of life, feeling that you have something stimulating and something to live for.

@HexHammer,
yeah, when I first woke in the recovery room after surgery the first thing I saw was a a pair of chi chis in my face as the nurse was adjusting my IV and asking if I needed more morphine, I told her no on the morphine but would she please take her time adjusting my IV.

Sometimes I'll feel the burning of staring eyes then, sure enough, some man is staring at the boobs or elsewhere. Maybe I would just like to say, "Oh, dear me, can't you wait until I'm ready?" then pose nicely, lifting them a bit and pulling in the tummy. Unless the guy is otherwise acting creepy, I think it hysterically funny, the staring. So happy, though, that it's healthy for men.
Actually, I get embarrassed.

One good memory from the 1950s: Walking down the street in Dallas, Tx at about age 15 and some guy drives by screaming, "Say, hey, good looking!" Or, walking down a city street in Cleveland, all dressed up in high heels and tight dress on my way to work, do a double take when I look sideways and a bunch of guys in work clothes stop what they're doing and wolf whistle.

I was hoping that someone would bring this up. I bet somewhere in a2k there is a thread talking about this very thing.

Also, aidan has been stating in another thread, that woman are intuitive. I get the idea from her post that woman can sense the intent of another person. This makes me wonder if their are degrees of creepiness that woman feel when men look at them, and if this is dependent upon the thoughts of the man.

I wonder if strippers, lap dancers, hoes, and sluts feel the same way as other women do (you know, on the job off the job thing).

I wonder if husbands can creep their wife out by looking at them in a certain way. I'm thinking that if husbands can be charged with rape, then maybe they too could look inappropriately at their wives so as to make them feel uncomfortable.

@Pronounce,
Well, aidan works in a prison environment with men who don't see women on
a regular basis or have a complete distorted outlook when it comes to women,
that should not be an indication that women are creeped out in general.

However, occasionally you'll find someone staring at your breast and if this
someone is repulsive and you see them almost drooling, it can make a woman feel very uncomfortable.

Personally, I don't wear revealing clothes as I like to be in control who sees what,
and I most definitely would remove myself from a situation where I am stared
at.

In all fairness though, there are women out there who crave attention, in any
form they can get it.

@Pronounce,
I wasn't aware we are discussing creepiness in men or lap dancers, hoes, strippers or sluts. That is another subject entirely. I think the topic is how looking at women's bare breasts is healthy for men.

"bare" really is not the topic of this thread. what we're talking about is men looking at boobs (not that there's anything wrong with bare boobs)

@dyslexia,
I had just listened, again, to Rodney Carrington sing that song. Didn't even realize I said 'bare breasts." Embarrassed

When you're talking in relative close proximity to a woman who has a particularly striking chest - especially if the top's low cut - it can be an extremely tough task to keep focused on her eyes, face or something else in the room. My belief is the men who do blatantly stare (or ogle) simply don't know or don't care that this can cause discomfort.

... its your standard lack of respect, if they're not trying to be considerate of someone else's feelings; sad - for sure, but nothing new.
