This may not apply to all women, but don't you hate when you're in the middle of a converstaion and you see the person's eyes starting to slip down to your chest and something really stupid comes out of their mouth like "I'm thirsty" or "Are they real,because no doctor can be that good?"...I want to scream,punch them first, but scream!!
I have often wondered if at the beginning of the conversation I should just announce that anyone who has any sly remarks or comments about my boobs, should get it out of the way first!
Have you been here ladies?? How did you react? Men, if this happened to your girlfriend, how would you eact? I would also like to ask, for the honest men, why you would do something like this??

OMGROFLMBO!!! Yup, been there done that!!! Usually I just turn and walk off. I have gone from big to little and back to big again, not intentionally, and not by surgery! I weighed 140 when I graduated high school, I got down to 87 at one point. And yes, they are the first thing you lose when you lose weight. Now I'm back up to 126 and they seem to be the first thing that came back. I liked it better when they were smaller. They didn't draw attention. I find myself wearing big baggy shirts to try to hide them.

I have had them forever it seems..as far back as grade school I remember them being "noticable", I went through a stage wearing big clothes, but you have to be able to be comfortable in your own skin, so it's only times like this do I wish I didn't have them.

In our defend, I have to say that its hard to think when blood is flowing out of your brain and going between your legs.
I make it a point to keep my eyes above the neck when talking, just so I don't get caught doing something stupid like that. Men should at least pretend to be gentlemanly in front of a lady...

This is so funny. I think men are just geared that way. Recently, I bought a new shirt that was pretty low cut to wear under another shirt. It got really hot the day I wore it and in the afternoon, I took off the overshirt. I ran several errands that day and realized that not one man I talked to ever looked me in the eye for more than two seconds! Even a man I used to work with that was really proper had an especially hard time focusing on my face. Me and my 15 year old son went to look at tires at Walmart and when we left, my son said "I don't think that man knew which tires he was pointing at when he was telling you the price, he couldn't take his eyes off your boobs." I laughed and my son said "I think I'm going to throw up!"
Lol I guess if I don't want them to look so hard, I'd better wear that other shirt.

Seriously, I know what you mean!!
If I wore low cut tops, I don't think anyone would hear a word that came out of my mouth!LOL
It's funny, but when I am at home I will sometimes wear smaller tops to clean [easier to move in] and my son ,who is only 5, says "Mommy, cover those things up!"...already at 5 focusing on the boobage!!!
So...I guess the only thing I can do is have them altered, and that's not happening any time soon...oh well :)

When you get lines like that it's because the guy is trying to flatter you so that he can score!
You women like compliments don't you? Well some guys compliment that way.
You can't blame us guys all the time. I have noticed many women love showing their cleavage by wearing plunging neck lines. Make up your minds please! If you don't want us to look at them then cover them up!

I am completely happy that I have been given the body that I have, what is bothersome is the men who think they have a right to comment on certain parts of it...why is that point being overlooked???

"Excuse Me, But I Am Up Here" - your statement and topic
Yes I see why its annoying and people should stop drifting to the area Jerritts. (and if someone actually said what you reiterated in discussion then yes that is just plain wrong). Some guys do it thinking they are cool (the ones with the remarks) but many guys like the physical female form. Of course that's a crime in stateside, but hey, women like the physical male form and that's not been shamed into oblivion -_- Women also react adversely to the other side of the coin too.
What I mean is that this situation is similar to women who frown or have this sour face on when I'm talking to them, thats in a similar context and much more annoying (at least the men want to look at you, the women in my case look like they are seeing Medusa).
"Excuse Me, but I'm not a monster. Quit with the weird faces and other crap" - me
When talking/interacting I know what you are thinking, but I'm not going to be in your presence for long. There's no need for scowling because I don't look like whatever the hell male celeb you want or better, bugger off about it. Hmph. The best is when its verbally admitted (think of the quotes you put down, turn them to overall physical status and magnify the cruelty). Disgusting creatures. -_- Just like you asked guys and the question is easy to deduce, I'll ask my question to girls: "Why would you do something like this??" And unlike your situation, your thoughts and what a couple of other respondents said, I have ZERO recourse. Can't threaten, can't respond, can't be physical. Its implied we have to take the garbage.
It may seem different to you, but its quite similar. Both negatively effect conversation. Both can make a person feel uncomfortable. The difference is, there's some objectification in your case but still people want to look; in mine its the opposite (well, still objectivified but far worse).
Just something I thought of when encountering this Jerritt.

If it happened to the GF, I might get reactive. No doubts.

I think the physical form,male and female is fascinating,and beautiful...but the difference here is,that I respect it.
I don't go around throwing out sly remarks about anyone's features[appealing,or unappealing] and I certainly don't judge a person by looks alone.
When someone[no matter who] is speaking to me, I at least give them the common courtesy to look them in the eye and hear what they have to say.I don't think of ways to end the convo bec. a person isn't, what in my mind, is attractive.That would be rude.Nor do I drift in other places where my eyes don't belong invading and/or undressing them in my mind-YUCK-again rude....
and one more thing, a person is only as beautiful as their inner self will allow.
People[men and women] who do this in my opinion are crude, and only think of themselves, if they think at all...but, I can't answer personally why a woman would do such a thing.
Maybe you and I met the same breed of socialities????I appreciate your thoughts and honesty, and only hope you find a better group of women to associate with:)

Well, this is a tricky theme))
But, well, I just stop talking and wait till he rises his eyes, it's so funny to see their reaction later, how they apologize, blush and are simply talking weird stuff))) And, by the way, try to look at it from the funny side, it's them who must feel uncomfortable)

oh there have been instances that it has been one of my male friends,and after the whole "I'm sorry, I can't help it" spit, I have shared a laugh about it. I just think that it is annoying esp. when you are in a grocery store and you pass a guy [with or without their wife],
their eyes are at boob level the entire time as they pass.
I know it's just a guy thing, but not liking it is just a girl thing!lol
