[QUOTE=DianaG] Have your friends considered seeing someone about having those sticks removed from their asses? I don’t recall ever flashing random strangers, but by your friend’s definition of aberrant, I’ve been aberrant all over the damned place. And if sex \*isn’t \* bolstering your self-esteem, you’re doing it wrong. Just sayin’. [/QUOTE] Y’know, I love your no-nonsense straight forward responses to my senseless threads. SSG Schwartz ---

[QUOTE=Anne Neville] Do people who do this not wear bras, do they wear front-hook bras, or are they just better at getting out of their bras quickly than I am? I couldn’t do a quick flash even if I wanted to- I’d have to get my bra off, and I can’t do that anything like quickly or non-obviously. [/QUOTE] She wasn’t wearing a bra. This was a number of years ago when her - um - _girls_ could hold their end up on their own, so to speak. She was wearing, and I can see it now, bless her heart, a yellow tank top that looked wonderful on her tanned self and now I think I should go and phone her and ask her if she remembers doing it!! _sighs and longs for the good old days when we were young and silly and didn’t need to wear a “support garment”_ ---

I haven’t yet, but I don’t see why I wouldn’t if I were in a situation where it would be appropriate to be inappropriate, if’n you follow. I wouldn’t whip ‘em out at a bar, but I would be very braless and gettin’ us the good beads if I ever went to Mardi Gras. I _have_ done the ‘please do what I want Mr. Retail Store Clerk’ lean over the customer service desk, though. Not quite flashing, since you can’t really see anything PG-13 or worse, but it works astoundingly well on high school and college-age straight male clerks/salesmen. I don’t particularly care if someone I’m with decides to flash people, although I would probably try to prevent it happening if I thought it would cause trouble. We do keep telling one of the girls in the group, whose cups runneth over, so to speak, that she should wear lower-cut shirts when we go out for dinner. We have this theory that if she finds the right one, we might get dessert for free. 😃 ---

The manipulating-men-with-cleavage-shots is probably worth a whole 'nother thread but would quickly lead to us being hated by the male Dopers, I’m sure! Suffice it to say that I’m not even subtle anymore: “Hey, Jeff, would you be the designated driver tonight? I’ll wear that brown suede v-neck top and you can stare at my cleavage all night if I don’t have to drive!” Works. Every. Time. 😃 ---

Never have, I don’t even go topless at the pool. I see the two as being completely different in the same way that a naked guy in a clothing-optional beach is completely different from the guy who flashed his teeny-weeny(1) wiener to two of the nuns from my dorm. (1) According to the nun who had actually seen dicks before, that is. The other one was busy being flustered.
