I asked this question to Dh, if he would ever comment on a woman's breasts to that woman.

That would completely depend on what man, where it took place, and in what context. There is a big difference between a stranger on the street, and someone I know.

Since I don't go to "great lenghths" to flaunt them.......I wouldn't expect a comment on my breasts from just anyone. (Those who DO go to "great lenghths" to flaunt them are obviously looking for comments!)

Since I am a 32A, I would probibally be a little mad. It would be obvious that he was being sarcastic, not complimentary.

Where I work, it would be completely out of the question to comment on any part of a woman's anatomy (included feet or hands I think). A person could get dinged for sexual harassment even if the object of the compliment was not offended. So I just bite my tongue and say nothing.

Two different situations, IMO, Man. IF a woman is wearing a very low cut top or dress, and emphasizing her breasts at a party or situation where she is surrounded by mixed company, then she IS inviting attention and stares from men. That's the whole point of wearing that type of garment, isn't it?

However, the general rule of thumb is "Think what you like, but keep your comments to yourself." It's just safer for everyone that way.

But, if a strange man approached me on the street and commented on ANY part of my body, then I would first be concerned for my safety, as women always have to be, and then offended and upset. That's a huge NO-NO for me. That could be considered harrassment.

How would that same man like for his daughter, wife, mother, sister to be approached in the same way? He probably wouldn't like it.

Men just don't get how uncomfortable and frightened an improper comment can make a woman feel, particularly in a situation where she is vunerable anyway.

Just because a man might like what he sees, it does NOT give him the right to say or do anything to express it. He could find himself explaining his intent to a policeman.
