Here is an example of a non-slutty [keyhole shirt](http://www.roppe.com/images/collection/371-999.jpg).

For what it’s worth, I typed “Keyhole Shirt” into google images and it came up with several that would be considered Notched by some. I personally consider a keyhole to be closed at the top.

In response to **Shera** ’s link: Am I the only one weirded out when shirts have boobs without benefit of having a girl inside them? I think that ranks second only to mannequins with nipples to me.

[QUOTE=Antinor01]  
Now I’m just wondering what sort of key would fit the keyhole. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a ta-ta key…or maybe I did but just didn’t know what it was.

Didn’t Madonna sing about this?

Since you already “broke the wall” on GQ, I wanted to suggest that itl was perhaps the new [Ford Oval](http://www.collegegear.com/sf/stores/product_images/231221.jpg)😃
