Women, do you turn and stare?

Asked by wundayatta (58722points) June 23rd, 2012

Last night, my wife and I were out with a couple of friends of ours—a man and a woman who are not romantically involved. As we left the pub, we passed a young woman who I can only think of as va-va-voom!!!! She was totally built! She was wearing a dress cut low on top and cut as high as possible on the bottom. I don’t know how it didn’t show her underwear.

Anyway, it was a blue and white, horizontally striped, form-fitting dress, and being with my wife, I tried to keep my staring as covert as possible. But imagine my shock when both our female friend and my wife turned as soon as this woman had passed to stare at her retreating rear end! I don’t know if my wife would have done this had it just been us, but since her friend did it quite blatantly, perhaps that encouraged her to do it, too.

The conversation they had at that point, while not using the language men might use, felt just about as crude as can be. Comments about this woman and how she probably had to pull down the dress all the time and varioius other things. It was like being in a locker room, only a female locker room.

So enlighten me, women. Is this what it is really like? Like when you beat up on men who blatantly turn and stare and undress you with their eyes, are you hiding the fact that you do exactly the same thing?

I was quite shocked. I’ve never seen a woman I knew well do this kind of thing before. I’m happy to see it, but it was quite unexpected. Is this just a unique circumstance, or have you experienced this? If so, how often?
