What cheeses me off

Just a bra with no clothes over the top.

Which reminds me of the other silly trend of singlets/see through t-shirts with no bra underneath.

I can just imagine most guys crossing paths with these young girls thinking only about their intellect. How can any guy not notice and not stare? If you don't want guys to stare at you then learn how to dress in public....

Clearly as I'm old enough to be their grandfather.

If this is all part of the new courtship rituals then I fear for the survival of society. The lights are on but there's no one home....

Spoken like a true person of grandfather age. Every generation seems to feel the same way. There's fare worrisome things to fear about for survival of society than courting rituals, like AI for one...

I think the world is becoming confusing for younger men though. Maybe not for very young boys now as their socialisation will be different but certainly teenagers who may perceive they are receiving mixed signals and act on the wrong one

With all the discussion on consent it should be clearer than ever, dont act without asking if it is ok.

Oh don't worry I know all about AI. We know whats going to happen yet sit back and do nothing. Not long before AI is in total control and there may not be a John Connor to save us.

The inevitable result is that females will now find their potential suitors so gunshy that the whole process, inspired by mother nature ,collapses.
Leads to.. how do females now trap their prey when they have educated them to stay away

We still have to manage the history of movies, songs etc that persist with mixed messages. I think it's way more complex. Relationships are way more complicated than a simple yes. especially when kids are still learning. Hell, mature, well thinking adults can get it wrong. All of us here have upset people on the forum simply by stating their opinion. We don't see the issue, others take offence. 🤷‍♀️. Where does it end?

Do you steal the beers you have after golf then, or when waiting for the girls shopping when in Thailand? ;) ;)

Why not use....... your own bins?

Ha, it's been hot here, so my boxer shorts and a Beer Laos singlet I bought in .... Laos! :p

I was actually talking to Mrs FB about this the other day, what's with the trend of NOT wearing bras. I wonder if they realise their perky potentials are going to become saggy suckers much quicker.

You got me on the beers and spirits. I do drink beer and spirits in Thailand but that's included in my $500 budget per trip. If I want to drink more then it's ham and cheese sandwiches and noodle cups.

The choice to stop drinking beer in Australia was easy. The prices here are ridiculous.

And no idea why teenagers and girls In their 20's choose not to wear bras. It's concerning that parents cannot stop their 14-16 year olds walking around malls without their bras.

What people wear is none of anyone's business unless it's regarded by law as indecent.

What if the laws haven’t kept up?
Open toed shoes for example, people have been wearing them for decades and yet the law hasn’t yet banned them.

What is the issue with these?

If you are on a worksite there are regulation re wearing steel-capped shoes, but what is issue with peep toed heeled sandals as a restaurant patron for example?

The law is always behind the reality. it isn't our job to bring it along. And there's always a risk of opinion over ruling facts.
