I am sure that there are. That goes back to my point on there being different fashion mores. I don't think those students of yours who don't have the nefarious motivation even realize that they are making anyone uncomfortable. They have been fed a diet of MTV from the day they were born. I think they have been de-sensitized by seeing breasts and sexuality displayed overtly everywhere they look. It seems normal to them, not sexual.

I wasn't kidding when I said I have seen nice girls wearing sexy shirts at funerals. It was the daughter of the dead guy. She was 22 and a very sweet kid, and I bet she didn't realize that wearing that shirt would have been considered inappropriate by anyone there. It was a black low-cut shirt, and I am sure she picked it because she thought you are supposed to wear black to a funeral, and that was a black shirt she had in her closet. Perhaps if her mother had not been grieving the sudden loss of her spouse, her mother would have said something.
