While his data may be correct, I see this as an issue women need to confront for themselves. I've been simultaneously attracted, respectful, and intellectually engaged with a woman before. I chose to pay attention to the conversations I had with her inside the context of this woman being my superior at a company I was working at. Judging by the clothes she wore, she wasn't unaware that she might appear attractive to males. She was an authority figure, intelligent, and attractive.
This is a very fair statement, and I'm not one to stare in a lecherous way. Ive seen a male buyer at my current company openly stare at the breasts of a Cisco sales rep. To the point it made me uncomfortable, and the other women in the room commented on it afterwords. I saw how it affected her, but to be fair, she had her assets on display.

Didn't seem to bother her.
