Hmm, very interesting thread. I am a short, 34 year-old, incredibly big busted woman. I admit that I don't want to be treated as a sex object because of my boobs, but, at the same time, I've used my femaleness to my advantage. For example, I'll bat my eyelashes at the grocery store, and say (only when I really can't) "Could you reach that for me please? You're such a sweetie." Or I used to go to Auto Zone alone, leaving my ex husband behind, so I could get free/better advice about fixing my car. I even convinced a guy to tighten my alternator belt for me, but I did tip him $10.
This is a paradox, I admit. Tired of guys looking at my boobs when they meet me, instead of in my eyes, while using my power to my advantage.
I guess I feel I don't have much power. Many men do treat me as a sex object, because of my boobs. Part of me says "To hell with them, if that's their preconceived notion of me, I'll go with it, as long as I get what I want." However, I don't do this is romantic relationships, or friendships (that I know of).
