violet08it’s just what i’d wear on a basic hot day
∟⊔⊤∦∣≶What you wear to a club, and what you’d wear to a corporate office are quite different though.
This is definitely something intended to be worn while entertaining company.
I was at a business conference in Medellin, Colombia a few months ago making extreme eye contact with everything but the lady wearing a sheer top with no bra at work.
I’m of two minds here: it’s just a body, everyone’s got one, no need to be ashamed of it or hide it; but people can also be reasonably distracted by seeing someone’s body at most workplaces (strip club bartenders excluded, for example) when they’re not expecting to, because they aren’t commonly displayed.
There’s also the factor of necessity: in extremely hot environments, people need to cover less of their body (unless they want to fully cover themselves with materials designed for it, like Bedouins, but a lot of people don’t want to do that and that’s a reasonable choice). In that situation, or in places like the beach, people should expect to see more of others’ bodies, and they are “at fault” for getting distracted.
To be clear, I think you behaved perfectly normally and well in that story. I was just thinking about the concept of nudity or near nudity at work in general.
