I was so disgusted, though, because this man that attended our church gave her the slowwwww up and down and then gave her the up and down again. I mean, it was so obviously licentious my stomach turned. He didn't blink or turn away--he just reallllly enjoyed the view. I felt very bad for his wife who was sitting right next to him. I don't know how she could have missed that.
Yet, he would be the first one to complain if a woman wore a split skirt--even if the skirt was long. He commented to my husband one afternoon, "Why would a woman wear a split skirt unless she wants a man to look?" Now, the answer to that question is debatable, but IMO that is a perfect example of a man giving himself permission to act badly because the woman is "asking for it" in his estimation.

then look away!"
