Now Im too old to be interested in cleavage anymore. Unless mabe they have a new golf club nestled inbetween those things. New golf clubs always get my attention.

Keep it in thew short grass yall


p.s. Ok I lied. Ive seen a few cleavages at work that definitely get my attention, but thats why they show them off also isnt it, I may be old but I am not dead. At least no yet.

I don't think it should be mandated one way or another just because a guy has a hairy chest.
hehe-I wish my husband had enough chest hair to "manscape" What exactly are we discussing? If a guy is so hairy that hunks of it are falling into his sterile field then I guess he should wear a t-shirt-do they make hair nets for other parts of the body? Our chief of staff has the grossest HAIRIEST knuckles I have ever seen....I we are speaking about professional image I don't think male or female cleavage is a problem...Tastefully displayed,of course....If a guy looks like he's carrying a monkey around his neck then he had better take him from Tweety and the Queer eye guys and learn the art of manscaping....On the other hand if a gals boobs are dangling down to her hips and half of her breakfast bagel is stuck in between the, then she has a BIGGER problem---and had better get a really good bra....(.I would HATE to have to layer up to cover my boobage-the hot flashes are bad enough now....)

I'll hide my chest hair when the women nurses who need a shave do so.
Fair enough?

Isn't that the truth! I thought it was just me since I am getting to old to look young anymore. LOL Maybe not, I justm ight have been right about thinking they all look, or try to look 12.
WOW, what a truth!

Re: Male Chest Hair and Scrub Tops

If there is "too much"....cover it up. Some things are better left to the imagination.

I personally think "just enough chest hair to make it interesting" will get to me everytime.

Cheerfuldoer.....you do have a point, and I WILL join you in that train of thought. (Sigh!)
