If not, not. > Well, that clearly depends on the host, now doesn't it? Most hosts attempt to be on their best behavior too, unless truly drunk or are power mad ... They don't want to be embarassed in front of their guests whom they are usually attempting to impress or at least are attempting to maintain a pleasant relationship with. If I ever had a truly bad host, say a host who pulled a gun on me, then I'd have no problem attempting to take the gun away from and shooting him dead in front of his family. Generic rules don't work since they can't apply to all situations. I'm a male. So, if a female is attractive and walking around half-naked, I'm looking. I may do so more discretely if the relationship with the host is important to me, but I'm not responsible for her appearance. I'm not a horse and shouldn't be required to wear blinders because the host finds it inappropriate to look at what is placed in front of them. She's responsible for what she chose to wear that day. So, it's her responsibility to not embarass her family by dressing appropriately for polite company when present. What is it with people attempting to avoid all personal responsibility nowadays?
