On a related kind of thingy ... I'm not sexist but I've noticed over the years that women really don't tend to have much of a clue as to what men will find sexy in a woman. They tend to just assume it's the perfect hourglass body, blond hair, big s, short skirts, etc, etc whereas in reality everyone's taste is different and the most random looks can look on certain people.
The example above is a perfect example. Over-tight cloths, with a bit of muffin-top exposed skin can be incredibly sexy. In actual fact, I find a totally flat belly on a woman, or worse, a belly with muscles a real turn-off.
I could go on with more examples, I really could, but as I'm an engaged man these days, I just wont

Thought of another one, people who pierce their child ears when the child is little. I've seen people with 1 year olds with pierced ears, the child can't have decided that they wanted that, and even if they had said to their parent that they did it's irrisponsible. A small child can't look after new piercings properly, they'll most likely play with them and the piercing will get infected because they don't know you're not supposed to touch them with dirty fingers.
I've seen this happening in the window of claire's accessories, how can any parent watch their baby cry in pain for the sake of 'fashion' I will never understand.

When I said skin showing I didn't mean like a little bit of belly. Hell, I'm not the skinniest person and end up showing a little of my belly sometimes. I meant more like lots of it, like someone who is a size 18 squeezing into a 10 and showing most of their body in the process.

Regarding ear piercing, I've not seen very small children with their ears pierced, but I agree that it's irresponsible. When I was young (pre-teens) a few of the girls at my school had pierced ears and I asked my mum if I could have mine done. (Mum has pierced ears, so I knew there wouldn't be any major problems.) Mum said I was too young, but I could have them done when I was 15. I don't know why she picked that age, but at least by then I was old enough to be able to take care of my ears.

In Italy and Spain they often pierce their kiddies' ears when very very young. At least unused ear-holes don't cause comment - it's the ones in the middle of the face that look odd.

I saw on a TV show a rather large woman wearing a boob tube that didn't contain all her boobs and a short skirt that didn't contain all her ass, I thought that was kind of yucky. Then again I also saw a rather thin woman wearing a pair of trousers with the ass taken out so you could see her thong, which was more yucky.

Taking part in some survey/test online, assuming it's free and easy, only to find you have to register at the end and THEN they expect you to pay. Sorry. You just lost any chance of my loyalty for life.

Being told you've won a free iPhone, laptop, supercomputer, whatever, only after you've applied to about a dozen "special offers", the cumulative cost of which being equal to the iPhone.
