How does one subtly broach this subject with a lady?

"Holster up the twins love"

The more direct option is grabbing her tits

Ahh... you are one of the 'Sheep' around here, churning out the same posts "pics or GTFO" etc

See that post you just made there? Thats a good way of making sure your stay here isn't particularly long. Good show, chap, good show.

Hmm if they are on the large side she should be wearing a bra...

a) cos they will end up down by her knee's (if not already
and
b) if they are down by the knee's, you dont wanna be looking at that (do ya?)

Maybe ask a female co-worker to say it to her ? Or a member of management?

Get a lady with bigger boobs to approach her.

I've wished that some of the guys I've worked with in the past would wear one.

Outside of Soviet Russia, anyway.

Confront her about it, at least you might get something out of the deal. At least, it happens like that in porn films which we all know are real. FACT.

I havn't breached any part of 'The Charter' but your agressive posting style is starting to look a little like bullying. Have a word with yourself yeah.

Don't you have some work you could be concentrating on?

Start going into work with your balls hanging outside your zipper.
That'll teach her not to let it all hang out.

Her Manager was contacted, and asked to broach the subject with her. AFAIK she reacted badly to any suggestions. I might just bring in one of my late Mothers cardigans, and leave it on her desk.

I'd recommend a moo moo

Pick one up to the side and let go. Kind of like this

What does it matter. As long as they're covered up and not on display who should be offended. Its like if you had a real overweight colleague, big rolls of fat wobbling around under his or her shirt/top. Would you want them to wear a corset so it wasnt so obvious?

Vive la difference and all that jazz.

Kipperhell · 14-01-2010 05:21PM

Worked with a woman manager who used to wear bagging v neck tops all the time but as she often bent down to look at a screen rather than sit she would put on a show. Eventually I just blurted out she made me uncomfortable and how she should be aware. She was mortified.

What really annoyed me was female workers never told her and constantly laughed at the guys reactions. She had been doing it for well over a year and I was the first to mention it. Never adjusted working with each other afterwards.

What next, forcing ginger women to dye their hair blonde because "you don't want to be looking at that,do ya?"?

Boobs sag as women age. It's not really any different from your face developing wrinkles. Ageing is a fact of life, I don't think people should be made to feel ashamed for it.
The only reason you fell repulsed is because you are thinking about her body in sexual terms and tbh, if you can't look at a pair of breasts without thinking in sexual terms then you have some growing up to do.

mink_man · 14-01-2010 05:35PM

and your complaining because???

rossie1977 · 14-01-2010 05:38PM

Oh c'mon! Noboby would genuinely want that. For one thing it makes them harder to spot and therefore easier for them to propagate.

ibarelycare · 14-01-2010 05:39PM

OP, I'm no feminist but why should she have to wear a bra? As long as she's covered up then what's the problem? I've worked with guys with bigger boobs than me and I haven't been offended. Disgusted, yes. Offended, no.

I totally get what your saying about the ageing thing.

And I am most definitly not thinking about that situation in sexual terms.

If the woman refuses to wear a bra then fine.

But, she is doing more damage to herself then anybody else really. The OP mentioned she has large breasts, not wearing a bra will cause them to sag and put strain on her back. Its for her own good to wear one.

And tbh with you, no I dont like seeing large sagging breats. Im not repulsed by it but if I can help it, I'd rather not see it.

If they are nearer her armpits then her knees then I really fail to see what the problem is tbh.

I'd draw the line if they were on her shoulder blades.:eek:
