Quote: Renegade Carpark @ September 22 2009, 10:55 PM BSTSo according to Dolly's book of social ettiquette, eye staring is okay. Can you recommend the appropriate amount of time and are you allowed to look at any other bits of their body?
3.15 seconds.

Is that per eyeball? And can I have more time if she has a lazy eye?

It's all just a matter of opinion is all. Variety is the spice and all that...

No coz it's your oppinion but all your talk of lesbains and porn has basically forced me to watch some.
Yeah and the general opinion is that it's okay to leer at women, they like it and want it. I'm still trying to get my head round this. I am clearly a very odd person....
(or this board is). 
That's not what we're all saying!
(Actually that's just what Renegade's saying, and even he doesn't mean half of what he says.)
WRT rape...
The idea that someone is "asking" to be raped because of what they're wearing is clearly silliness. But we shouldn't let the stigma of that stupid argument spread to the plain truth that certain clothes or styles of dress would increase the chance of rape. It obviously varies from man to man, and woman to woman, but there are clothes which would make women feel sexier, and clothes which men would find sexier.
Now, I can't say I'm in tune with the mentality of someone who'd commit an act of rape, but I'm fairly sure that if a woman is dressed in such a manner that a potential rapist finds alluring, he's more likely to attack her than someone dressed differently. And further to that, I would expect such a man to be more likely to be attracted to that highly exposed, scantily-clad look.
WRT looking and that...
No one should complain for being glanced at, no matter what you're wearing - or not wearing, as the debate in this thread has so often covered. It's just human nature to look around.
Dolly's argument about someone being able to wear what they want is fine and fair, and I agree; but at the same time, if one is wearing revealing clothing then basic common sense should equip the wearer with the fact that they're more likely to attract more attention than if they were all covered up. The original complaint in the thread which lead us onto this topic of discussion was concerned with the vocal minority of women who lack that common sense.
However, prolonged staring at someone (as opposed to a quick glance), making purpose physical contact with them, or making comments is obviously just plain rude. What they may be wearing, or whatever else may attract one's attention, is irrelevant.
Then I still don't understand what everyone was saying!
