to be amused by my boobs

I know it's wrong. I know it's against everything feminist me believes in. But I do find it hilarious when the poor chaps cannot control their own eyeballs. It used to make me angry, but now I just find it funny. Not the dead creepy starers, but the men who know they shouldn't look but can't stop themselves and their eyes flick up and down, up and down. It IS hard not to look at something you know you shouldn't stare at, I have problems with eye flicking people's moles or missing teeth etc. Must be even worse if you are a boob-man.

Just realised I need to watch my habit of leaning forward over my desk at work and resting my boobs on it (sounds weird, but it's a big high desk more like a table top). It's comfy. colleague just came in to talk to me and keep flicking eyes at boobs.

OHs dad simply cannot keep his eyes away from them either. I've taken to wearing high neck tops out of pity for the old boy but they don't seem to help.

G-cup means I can comfortably a hide a bottle of wine / spirits down there. Plus use them as a handbag on a night out. And when you take your bra off and find coins stuck to them, it always make my OH laugh.

Plus the sheer fascination held be everyone about them!

I lost my nice flat tummy under my boobs once. At least, I think that's where it went.

KirjavaTheCat · 05/03/2014 18:37

I hate it. Maybe one day I'll find it amusing. I find it leery and creepy Sad

(Goes off to find bottle of Sauvignon to save for later in safety of my Hs!)

MadBusLady · 05/03/2014 18:38

YANBU, I am fascinated by them myself I quite sympathise with the fascination of others. Hilarious things to have attached to one. But then blokes must feel the same about their appendages.

meddie · 05/03/2014 18:42

If I get an obvious starer I like to place my finger under their chin lift their face up and say " I,m up here. as fascinating as those are they wont answer you"

SnookyPooky · 05/03/2014 18:57

Snort at Tulips 'weapons of stealth'. Friend of mine used hers to avoid a speeding ticket recently.
I do find that my boss is nicer to me on the days that I show some cleavage. Sigh....he's a bit of a twat.

Jolleigh · 05/03/2014 19:49

"As fascinating as they are, they won't answer you" Grin Stealing this! I normally just laugh and tell people my face is slightly higher than they've parked their eyeballs.

"forward over my desk at work and resting my boobs on it"

^^I do this, takes the pressure off your back/shoulders when you've got a desk job Grin

can tell you how many free bus rides/drinks etc my boobs have gotten me, I'd like to say it's my winning personality but I think the 34G's have to take the credit!

Are you sure that wasn't that status that was going around facebook recently? ;p

IfAtFirstUDontSucceed · 05/03/2014 21:24

I also have boob envy, but the gape-age in my not-quite-filled-up-bra is a handy little scoop for chunks of biscuit which haven't quite made it in to my mouth. A nice little treat when I come to take it off at bed time :)

drnoitall · 05/03/2014 21:25

Loves ones self . Much,
You sound very conceited.

prettypleasewithsugarontop · 05/03/2014 21:31

I dipped into soup once - white top, tomato soup Confused didn't notice and no fucker told me! Shock was hilarious when DH told me when he got home 5hrs after I had my lunch!

headlesslambrini · 05/03/2014 21:35

Bra's are definitely one of the best things ever invented for keeping extra nibbles handy.

Bunbaker · 05/03/2014 21:44

"Well with tiny boobs like mine no one looks at them apart from my husband. But they are pert."

Same here. Boob envy from me. If I tried to hide my mobile in my bra I would look lumpy and misshapen.

2tiredtocare · 05/03/2014 22:01

Who is that directed at Drnoitall? Does anyone remember that poor lady who worked on a checkout and people were complaining of being overcharged for loose fruit and veg as she hadnt realised her boobs were on the scales too!

Jolleigh · 05/03/2014 22:53

drnoitall - should people only be talking about their bodies in a negative way then for fear of you finding them conceited? I happen to have quite healthy self esteem and my J cups help that. Even when I do knock over displays in shops with them.

ToysRLuv · 05/03/2014 23:05

Ah, I'm the opposite. I have smallish boobs and I really like it. Nobody stares at my chest when they talk to me. My boobs/femininity does not define me. I like to be a bit androgynous. Smile

Whathaveiforgottentoday · 06/03/2014 01:35

We don't really have a choice (unless of course you've opted for surgery). My boobs don't define me but they are part of me and being a J cup quite a big part of me. I'd quite like to be a bit androgynous (tom boy at heart) but clearly mother nature had other ideas for me and I'm ok with that.
Men do sometimes stare but to be honest I don't really take much notice - better things to worry about.

Bifauxnen · 06/03/2014 02:30

Can't even smuggle a couple of bells miniature whiskeys Sad
No-one stares though, except one guy who stared then promptly stated (redundantly) that I have no tits.

Morloth · 06/03/2014 02:38

I like my boobs and I don't mind when someone has a look at them. They are pretty nice and I look at other people's boobs all the time.

I always think that bras should have pockets in them. They might as well I use mine for pretty much everything.

ToysRLuv · 06/03/2014 02:46

WhathaveIforgottentoday: My boobs are one of the very few things I sort of manage to like about my body..

ToysRLuv · 06/03/2014 02:58

Just occurred to me, that I have never in my life worn low cut tops, either. Whenever I have tried them on, they make me feel uncomfortable and like I really want people to look at my chest.

It also drives me nuts sometimes trying to find nice bras that have no padding in them. No, I do not want to enhance my boobs (or "assets"!!!), like I'm clearly expected to! Confused

Morloth · 06/03/2014 03:02

I like a bit of padding, not to make them look bigger (they REALLY don't need that).

But I like smooth under my shirts and they are more comfy IME.

SnookyPooky · 06/03/2014 05:04

falulahthecat, definitely not. We are in Cyprus where bribes, corruption and boob flashing are the norm. Another friend tried it but it didnt work for her. I got stopped myself once but was in covered up clothes, the policeman told me my perfume was lovely and did I want to go for a coffee with him!
