Ladies and gentlemen, some hard-hitting journalism from ABC News:
The weather’s getting warmer and necklines are dipping lower—sometimes, too low.
From the beach to the mall to the office, women seem to be showing off their cleavage more than ever before. Why? According to Elisabeth Squires, author of “Boobs: A Guide to Your Girls,” American breasts are getting bigger while shirts are getting smaller.
“We are seeing more cleavage these days for a few reasons. First, the fashion of the day is tight and skinny. At the same time, women are bigger than they were even 15 years ago. Bra fitters tell me that an E cup is the new C cup,” Squires said on “Good Morning America.”
“We have to remember that while more women are showing more cleavage, you really have to use your breast power responsibly,” Squires said.
On the grand list of social issues in America, the cleavage issue isn’t a real high priority for me, but I’ll go ahead and jump in here anyway. Because it matters.
I’d say that on the whole, the only people who get upset at women who show too much cleavage are other women, and that they’re mostly just upset because they either a) don’t have the same sort of assets to show off or b) are upset because their husband/boyfriend/significant other is staring.
That’s about all I’ve got. Now debate among yourselves.
