Added to which, not being gay, I find it hard to distinguish between aesthetic and sexual appreciation of the breast. Artists are supposed to be able to do it, I suppose, but I'm not sure I trust them. Lustbeautycrazysexycool - let's not draw lines.

I'd be honoured. Though I concede that it would be at my flatmate's and my discretion. What about public property/property of one's own, though? I mean I'm often staring at TVs, paintings and stuff. Is that a no-no?
Anyway, like I say, I don't stare at women's chests. Unless it's from the top of a bus and they can't see me. Although I probably have enough of a glance to let them know that I have noticed them, thus fulfilling both your wishes. I am best.

Like Rachel and her tits- if she didn't want people to stare, she wouldn't have got them out! Bollocks! They're her tits and just cause they're out doesn't give people the right to stare. Next you'll be saying that wearing a low-cut or tight top gives people the right to stare. It's a slippery slope.
Who's 'Rachel'? Is it worth knowing the answer?
Anyway. The thing with wearing tight / low cut tops is you know and expect that people will look. The problem is (for me) that there are some people I want to look but the vast majority of people should not be looking. So next time I wear a tight / low cut top I will just have to shout 'not you! stop perving at my tits you perv!' at anyone who is not supposed to be looking......anyone who is allowed to look can carry on regardless.
Phew, this sexual politics stuff is very complicated.
It's hard for me to discuss Rachel's clothing, because I know her too well to be able to separate the abstract sexual politics behind them from her supposed reasons for wearing them, and from my own perceived and inferred ideas about what is prompting her.
My opinion on clothes is such... if you wear something deliberately attention getting, then you can't be surprised and complain at the attention that you get. Yes, women should be allowed to have the freedom to wear whatever they like without being exposed to the prurient male gaze. *BUT* if you go out of your way to shock, provoke and titilate, you can't be that surprised if the response if negative.
and you could you know.

I'm a pretty boy. I lack several uberman qualities. On the other hand, I am great at being an insufferable jackass when I want to be one.

What we need here is a jpeg of a steatopygous female. I am sure it will make Ally feel better. I rather like this one:
