    have visible nipples, through their clothing? Is that how women gauge if their bullets will be seen?

    And why aren't the male manequins shown in the same state of "excitement"?! Not that I'd want to see that but it'd make for some interesting shop window displays!

    The nipples are not visible to all, you just arouse the said mannequins.

    Some are some aren't.if they're going that far they should make the genitals properly too. Wouldn't be too many left undressed in windows then

    I find the mannequins with no heads or hands or feet a little bit disturbing.

    The shop I noticed it in was for elderly conservative women - can't imagine anything pointy at that height tbh!

    Perhaps they ought to - after all, wouldn't women want to know which clothes presented a risk of the dreaded CamelToe ..?

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.
