Yesterday at the grocery store, an attractive young woman (20ish) was wearing a white, see-through mesh tank top. You could see not only her breasts, but her nipples from 20 yards away. She seemed indifferent to the stares. Why would a woman wear a top like this in such a public place?

But that sounds like someone disparetly seeking attention....and she'd have mine for sure if I see her in the frozen food section :)

If she feels comfortable I don't see that it is anybody else's business. Also, if you start to say eople should not waer certain types of clothes where will it end? What if the top was showing her cleavage? or what if she were wearing low cut jeans showing her panty line or buttocks? I would be interested to turn the question around and ask why you feel she ought not to waer a top like that?

The reason being is that through my body was the only way I knew how to obtain this much needed attention. This young female I would dare say needed the attention she was Very aware of receiving in order to feel good about herself along with enjoying a thrill in doing so. As many females are her self worth is very possibly wrapped up in her body as mine use to be. Contrary to how she was acting she was very aware of the stares she was receiving. Could a male go out in public with his private part hanging out and not be aware of the attention he was receiving? Yet many males also suffer from low self esteem and find their self worth in their body part yet we do not see them doing as I mentioned as I believe females and males live in a different world when it comes to media self image. This young woman probably has not learned any other way to gain attention to herself outside of how you viewed her.

She doesn't grasp the idea that everyone-not just class 'A' studs- is going to look at her.

Nor do I think men should be allowed to go shirtless outside their home. It should be all or none. It's just as distracting for women for a nice looking man to be shirtless and just as disgusting to see fat guys with man breasts. Why would see wear it? Because she liked it. It's pretty to her and makes her feel nice. That's why women wear anything. Why do men have to make breasts such a big deal? Heck, anymore, most men are chubby enough to have their own.

Does it disturb you? A few decennia ago it used to be quite obscene to show your ankles, as a woman. Does that disturb you now? You seem to think she degrades herself by wearing a see-through tank top. However, she obviously doesn't think so herself. Therefore, it's a matter of opinion. Only thing that matters, really, is: can she get away with it? Does it look nice? Some people can wear purple and green cardigans and look nice, but look horrible in a white see-through mesh tank top...

Also, she could be just seeking attention.

Breasts are just another part of the body like elbows or toenails. The only reason they are sexually objectified here is because of the taboo our society has placed on them... also movies have had an impact. Go to Europe, Africa, Australia, et c and you'll see that they think we're all nuts in our victorian puritanism. There is nothing evil about any part of anyone's body and they shouldn't HAVE to be covered... unless you're cold, that is. Cheers, Jim

Most women actually condemn these kinds of clothing too on their peers, labelling them sluts or whatnot. So there are two possibilities: one, she had no idea her breasts were seethrough (I've accidentally worn black bras with thin white T-shirts or beaters), or two, she's one of those women who likes to flaunt her body because she thinks men like it. If she seemed pretty indifferent to all the attention she was attracting, and wasn't trying to be overtly sexual in her actions, it was probably the former.

As a male I probably can't give all of them, but I'm sure that many women might disagree on the reason too. Those that I can think of include: because she is proud of her body and likes to show it off; because she does it for her partner (probably because it turns him on); because her partner forces her to do it; because she has no hang ups about nudity and that is the nearest she can come without being arrested. I'm sure there are plenty of reasons, but only she will know the answer for sure.

I know 'what a shame'

Because she wanted to. Why do men walk around with their shirts off while women cannot? Maybe she thought it looked good, maybe it was comfortable, maybe she ran out of clean clothes. Who knows?
