Why do women show cleavage?

today I was at the store waiting in line to pay and the cashier had her shirt button up. when it was finally my turn I looked away for second and with my peripheral vision I noticed that she open up her shirt to show cleavage and her undershirt as well. I looked around if their was some other person around me but I was the only their. this never happens to me. anyway I was wondering why do women do it. do women do unconsciously or consciously. Is it for a specific guy or every guy. Do you get mad if a specific guy looks or every guy looks. I'm trying to study body language so yea

  • In general its obviously to attract men or whoever.
    Personally in addition to that I think breasts are feminine and natural, who doesn't want to feel sexy and be proud of what they have. So at times its just for myself. However as I grow up I don't feel the same need for that attention and I think there's a difference between tasteful and... not so tasteful haha.

    However my opinion may have changed since I've been in a serious relationship. I just think there should be some respect for him, our relationship, and myself. I think there's a time and place for it and like mentioned there are different types of it.

    In your situation she was either trying to cool off or get your attention, probably the latter. Its okay to glance and notice if its out there in my opinion. Most women don't like creepy long stares or oogling.

  • Could be because of hot weather, to make people stare at them, or just for fun or because they like it. Lol.
    There are some links of girls showing different cleavages.

  • Just to look good in general, it makes you feel more girly/cute. It's not necessarily for a guy but it's fine if guys look as long as they don't stare.

  • they like attention. or like the way they look sexy. I personally don't

  • to be sexy:)

    honestly, sometimes it happens without realising. but whenever i buy a top, i need to make sure that both my waist and boobs look good in it:P

    i remember i once bought a top specifically because of how nice the neckline sat, how it showed off my collarbones and cleavage:P so it really depends on where I'm going and if there's anyone i wanna impress;P

  • Sometimes it's to draw attention but a lot of the time girls with larger chests don't really notice it. I show it off around my boyfriend on purpose to tease him and make him think. (; But a lot of the time a normal cut shirt for me shows cleavage and I don't notice until one of my friends tells me so.

  • For attention most if not ALL OF THE TIME. If you have them show them, just not ALL of the time and not in appropriate places. She totally wanted you to see her and not HER but her boobs for sure! xD I don't get mad if a guy looks, it's natural and okay but if that is ALL he is going to notice then yeah I will be mad.

  • Why Shouldn't they? (rhetorical)

    • shouldn't*

  • “Do women do unconsciously or consciously.”
    The ones who get angry do it unconsciously.

    “Is it for a specific guy or every guy.”
    It’s for attention.

    “Do you get mad if a specific guy looks or every guy looks.”
    I wouldn’t care, just respect me as a person and don’t make your stare so obvious.

  • Most women like attraction, like my gf only does it to tease the sh*t out of me.

    • haha i should so do that to my bf:P

    • lol, the worst part is that its in school and i can't really do anything besides grabbing her ass

  • I do because my husband is a boob man so when I wanna be nice I wear a cleavage shirt lol

  • Sometimes I show off my cleavage and sometimes I don't. Depends on my mood. I don't get mad if guys are checking them out. I don't mind the attention.

  • Because guys like breasts. Plain and simple. I think also to test guys. - See how long they can avoid looking

  • To attract guys? Or if it makes them look better in something. Mostly to attract guys and to look hot.
    About the incident, it could have come undone on its own. Or she found you cute. Itss okay to look. But try not to ogle or stare or make the girl uncomfortable. It is out there for noticing. Make it subtle.

  • I have 32E/DDD boobs. Unless I wear a turtle neck, it's impossible not to show cleavage.

  • mainly for male attention

  • I think that the women that show to much cleavage just wants to get in your bed not in a relationship
