whilst talking to me briefly at work today! She couldn't get her eyes of them...

And I checked, there's no food spilt down my top or anything.

And I am not wearing a "too revealing" top or anything

And my rack really isn't that impressive - even in pregnancy.

Was really quite unnerving...

I wouldn't say one is any more creepy than the other DP.

RoxieP;

you're either wearing a T. shirt saying - 'fuck off female & stop staring at my tits' - or you're making it up - either way you sound remarkably odd.

I love breasts and will look at them (not stare obvs) I am not a lesbian nor am I creepy.
They are a thing of beauty ()()

PussinJimmyChoos · 12/11/2010 16:12

She maybe deaf...I am deaf and I need to lipread and I have to say, sometimes if a woman is impressive of norkage, it is hard NOT to look when lipreading - the two are not that far apart!

Although think its unfair to lesbians that we have to keep justifying that we are not lesbian if we look at another woman's breasts - sometimes they are hard to miss!

daftpunk · 12/11/2010 16:13

I didn't say lesbians were creepy - I said I'd find it creepy if a woman was staring at me in a sexual way.
I then said it isn't creepy if you're both lesbians - therefore restoring a sense of balance.

Will you please stop telling me how I can feel.

PussinJimmyChoos · 12/11/2010 16:13

Oh and I'm sure some lesbians are arse ones and don't bothered about breasts!

Mumwithadragontattoo · 12/11/2010 16:13

Are you sure they're not looking at your bump? My eye is always drawn to a baby bump. That would explain why two in one day.

theevildead2 · 12/11/2010 16:26

Oh Mumwithadragontattoo that makes the most sense!!!

Are you "out" with your pregnancy at work? Do you think it could be people checking you out for a bit of gossip?

WriterofDreams · 12/11/2010 16:38

Years ago I was out with a bunch of friends and I just could not stop staring at the boobs of one of the girls sitting across from me. She was wearing a lovely top and they just looked fantastic. I thought I was being a bit weird until another girl leaned over to me and said "God, I can't stop staring at X's tits!" I nearly burst myself laughing and told her I was thinking the same thing. She's a bit more forward than I so she proceeded to tell said girl how great her boobs looked. I don't think the girl was offended. I'm not sure how I'd feel if someone said that to me though, maybe horribly selfconscious?

I think women do tend to check out each other's boobs and appreciate them if they look good. Seeing as you're pregnant Roxie, yours may have filled out a bit and so be attracting more attention, although that woman was a bit obvious about it. Do you have any good friend at work who could assess the boobage for you?

RoxieP · 12/11/2010 17:20

Yuk! Just got a pervy PM off someone with a blokey sounding name who hasn't yet posted on this thread for all to see! Something like - "they must have got bigger to attract all this attention". As if someone would PM something like that! Blocked them of course!

Serves me right for posting such a "provocative" thread title!

Think I might slope off this thread as I definitely don't want THAT kind of attention!

But yes I suppose it must be the bump, or perhaps they must have filled out a bit!

And daftpunk - I don't THINK I'm odd as far as I know - was just making an observation that's all!

Thanks peeps for you responses - but might refrain from chatting more about my mammaries as it's obviously exciting some weirdo PMers out there...x

Oh, I had one too - didn't read it as potentially pervy or notice the blokey name Blush.

Can we just ignore the shit stirring ignoramous that is daftpunk, and just enjoy the tit-checking thread please.

Gay40 · 12/11/2010 18:09

deepheat, I would think it's because men make it really obvious.

Bunnyjo · 12/11/2010 18:12

I'm not actually bothered if a woman 'cops a look' at my breasts, I do have rather large breasts, which are even bigger now I am pregnant, and I see it as a little compliment. I'm sure I may well have unwittingly admired some other ladies breasts in the past. I certainly don't find it creepy and wouldn't question a woman's sexuality based on her having a look!

I do get a little bit annoyed with men who insist on talking to my breasts for the entire length of a conversation. Though, I'm now bold enough to say 'Do you have an eye problem? It's just that my eyes are on my face and not on my breasts...' which usually has the desired effect!

daftpunk · 12/11/2010 18:27

G40 - It's spelt - 'ignoramus'

WhatsWrongWithYou · 12/11/2010 19:04

Yes, it's the holding the stare for the entire conversation that makes it creepy and irritating; the last man who did this to me was decorating our house for a week, so I had to encounter him every day.

Pissed me right off.

Gay40 · 12/11/2010 19:18

However it is spelled, I'm pleased you acknowledged the fact.

booyhoo · 12/11/2010 19:21

i like a nice set of boobs. i shouldn't stare but some just catch my eye.

Mumcentreplus · 12/11/2010 19:31

Maybe you had a nice top on?...maybe you had nipples like bullets...maybe she was checking you were the same size/or not as her..there are a myriad of reasons..Grin

deepheat · 12/11/2010 19:34

Gay40 Do we really?

Mummy2Bookie · 12/11/2010 19:35

Just enjoy the attention
