The nip slip - to tell or not to tell. That, is the question


Greetings all. This blog comes to you in a much better mood than the last one. Oh, and for those who posted and sent me kind words of support, I thank you very much. That was nice. Anyways, back to this. Been traveling for work the last week and I extended my trip over the long weekend to spend some time with some old friends of mine. We went snorkeling so I spent the entire day on a boat, out at sea, and by the beach. It was fun, to say the least.

There were 9 of us, including the two guys who manned the boat and equipment, and of the remaining 7, I knew 2 (a couple) personally. The other 4 (all guys) were their friends who wanted to snorkel as well. We were told to stick together and not stray too far away from each other, so we did. Towards the end of the day, I was swimming around in the sea a distance from the boat with 2 of the guys, and we were signaled to swim back to the boat. The 3 of us have been swimming away from the main group for quite some time now and I had thought they were nice enough to accompany me. So we swam back and I started to climb back out onto the boat when on of the guys who swam with me tapped me on the arm and told me that my bikini top had slid to the side and I was showing. I checked and true enough, I had pulled a nipslip. Or rather, a half-my-boob-was-out slip. So I adjusted, thanked him and went back onto the boat. I wasn't embarrassed per say, just..i wasn't expecting that to happen. I had specifically picked a decent swimwear, one that I usually use to swim laps in so, you know. Wasn't expecting it. Went back and hung out at the beach, and then later in the night, we also went to a club. I thought he was quite gentlemanly for the way he acted but otherwise, didn't really give it much thought.

It was later in the night when, after telling these same two guys who were hitting on me, that I just wasn't interested, that I find out that the entire time we were swimming, my tits were out. And that, THAT, was the reason they were swimming with me. We must have been swimming for an hour plus at least. All that time. And they only decided to tell me right at the end. I was shocked for a split second, and then couldn't help but burst out laughing (I smacked them in the arm a few times for good measure).

Then the conversation went down the road of, whether you should say something or not, if you see a nip slip, or anything similar for that matter. I think you should. That's my take on it. One of the guys agreed that was the nicer thing to do, but the other disagreed, saying it would cost more harm than good.

Honestly, what do you think? To tell the person or not?

This of course, has got me thinking about other similar situations, and I've always stuck to a rule. I don't normally say anything if it's a one gender environment. Like in pole class, where it's all female. In several...precarious positions, boobs are spilling out all the time, depending on what we wear. There are certainly enough cameltoes in spin and yoga classes too. Those ones are a little trickier, cos...well, I had wanted to say it's not as overt but some people have cameltoes that scream "HEY! I"M HERE!!" LOL

So yeah, unless it's super overt, like that dude in yoga who's balls keep sticking out, I'll tell him. If not, I generally don't. So, what situations would warranty telling someone and what wouldn't?

If the woman is in a public area, I would get an eyeful for several minutes, maybe snap a couple of pics, then tell her. In a place where only she and I are there, I would wait a lot longer before telling her. if I did not tell her before she found out, I would be the bad guy. By telling her, she would probably be embarrassed, but thankful (brownie points!!!).

I would tell a female friend to let her know... But on a one on one situation, i would prob apologize first, then mention to her discreetly. Nobody likes to be exposed unwillingly...

People always like to be a bit more immoral when it comes down to having an eye full over a woman's nip slip or breast revelation that you may come across once in a while out in the public (whether it was intentional or unintentional). Being in an asian country... imagine how often you will someone step up to you and say "Maam, your breast were revealed" or perhaps someone will just come cover you with a jacket? Not without having many people oogle at you first that is. Back to your question of whether should someone tell you about the slip... morally we should... however, in real life... after a good few minutes of oogle... some mental shots... then only will tell. Conclusion is... we will still tell you, but after you've taken good mental pictures with it. I bet you had an eyeful too before you start telling the person whether its a "good" or "bad" thing you see.

I would usually inform a female present to inform the female who has the slip up about it. The tricky thing is in a 1 on 1 situation.

But considering your previous post, let me ask you a hypothetical question. If you had done a slip in a 1 on 1 meeting with a male colleague/client would you rather he told you, or TRY his best to not look?

I would like to hear your opinion on that!
