Low-cut outfits can lead to loss of jobs

WOMEN employees in Singapore risk losing their jobs for wearing low-cut outfits that show off their cleavage, Sin Chew Daily reported.

Many employers were of the opinion that outfits revealing cleavage were distracting at work.

The daily reported that women employees with low-cut attires may face communication problems as the person may not be paying attention to what she was saying.

Image consultants also felt that revealing too much of cleavage is not suitable for work.

The daily also reported that the breasts of Singaporean women were getting bigger.

Five years ago, the bra size of many women was 75B but it was now 75D.

Doctors in Singapore say nutritious food has caused Singapore women to grow taller and have bigger breasts.

How you dress is your choice and your freedom. It's 'fine' and probably acceptable if you oogle cleavages, butts, hairy chested, muscular gals at pub, disco etc after a few drinks etc. But it is definitely not civil or nice to oogle let alone the manner of exposure elsewhere like at the wet markets or supermarkets. Some can accept while others may not as there are all types of people. Go naked in the privacy of your home by all means but in public, work areas etc, do respect the spaces of others and local cultures prevailing etc. Don't complain or cry if some uncouth characters harrass or assault you because of your exposed hairy chest, cleavages or butts.

Asian women are no doubt one of the prettiest in the world. But fair is fair..as most dont have enough on top..there is nothing more distracting than a woman with a plunging neckline showing off ..nuffin at all.

Improper dressing can be a 'rude' distraction to both sexes even in western cultures. If it was to be we would be going to work nude and not now talking about too much body exposure. Guess it also boils down to where one is working.
