    If you see a man (person unknown to you) with his zipper open would you tell him?

    Clonge: Mr. Levy sees Mrs. Schwartz at synagogue Friday night. She sees his zipper is open, but tells him that his "business" is open. He just shrugs it off. She tells him again. He says " I'm sure I closed up. Even my co-workers were there with me." She says angrily, "I'm telling you for the last time, your 'business' is open!" He yells at her, "Leave me alone, you're nuts!" Later on, he looks down at his pants and realizes what she so tactfully was trying to explain. He apologizes profusely. Lastly, he says to her, "Do you mind if I ask you a question?" She says "no". "Okay; while my business was open, was my 'salesman' in or out?"

    I use sign language for that.  Nothing verbal. Look into their eyes, expressionless, flip an indexing out to catch their attention then to the bottom of my zipper and along the zipper to the top and point toward that area on them. It’s very brief and easy to convey the message and not say a word. They always "get it” and  not a word is spoken that can be overheard embarrassingly. 


    Gestures and the thought of an appropriate, simple word go together. Practice in front of a mirror to get it right….how others see your gestures. Play pantomime.

    The idea of practicing in front of a mirror sounds great. Thanks for the advise will do it.

    Yes, I would tell him. I would tell him if he has a big booger hanging out of his nose too.

    I might puke first over the booger but then tell him or hand him a tissue.

    Yes. Have done it a few times in my life. I just come right out and say, "Your fly is open. Zip up please." : )

    of course not, I wouldn't spoil a woman's curiosity.

    Colleen. or smell it.

    I can think of three times when it was women with their jeans unzipped, and for some reason in each instance they didn't have panties on. In each instance I didn't say anything, as it was an awkward position to find myself in. But, all three caught on fast, as they must of saw the surprised look on my face. One of them was a dark-skinned black woman, and up until that point in my life...believe it or not, I honestly didn't know a blush would be that detectable. But, it was, and then it was a really awkward moment for awhile.

    This is spanning 40 some years. It made me wonder myself why these little snippets in time stayed in my memory all these years.

    Excuse me, the horse is gettin' out of the barn.


    Also, should he then be praised when his fly is up?

    Yes, I would.

    dowsa

    You did not even "Blush " when you said that ANN.lol
    Ann

    Oh yes I did. You just did not see it.

    yes I would say something.

    Yes i would diffently tell that person man or women.Look at it this way if your pants were unzipped would u want someone to tell you.Good Day!!!!!!!

    Yes, I would say, "XYZ" (examine your zipper)...............

    dowsa

    "Thought you would say that "Girl" ,And you did not even "Blush" Straight talker love that .

    Nope........I would feel embarrassed because it would be obvious that i was looking in that direction to know that it was undone.

    fjoel

    you know more than i know.

    Have done so and probably will do so in the future.

    Not if i knew them.. lol.. Of coarse i would..

    Seen many Zippers down .Like to check the opposition out for size!! in the "Toilet!! some times I come out "Smiling"

    I see nothing wrong with helping a fellow human being out in times of need.  Yes! 


     'Excuse me sir but your horse is about to leave its stable.."


    I have done it a few times, it always gets a laugh and a thank you..  Humor will always soften the blow of embarrassment.


    and I have been told on occasion my fly was open too!  :)  Any guy that says it never happened to him is lying..

    I don't see why not in most cases.

    This reminds me of a joke: Mr. Levy sees Mrs. Schwartz at synagogue Friday night. She sees his zipper is open, but tells him that his "business" is open. He just shrugs it off. She tells him again. He says " I'm sure I closed up. Even my co-workers were there with me." She says angrily, "I'm telling you for the last time, your 'business' is open!" He yells at her, "Leave me alone, you're nuts!"  Later on, he looks down at his pants and realizes what she so tactfully was trying to explain. He apologizes profusely. Lastly, he says to her, "Do you mind if I ask you a question?" She says "no". "Okay; while my business was open, was my 'salesman' in or out?"

    VERY GOOD.LOL.
    Dollybird

    Good one Clonge.
    valR

    LOL

    Yes... I have no shame... And it might be a good way to make a new friend.

    I think I'd try to make eye contact and then look toward the zipper, scrunch up my face somehow, and mouth "zipper".   That should get them running the other way, though.  

    My Gods yes! I take every opportunity to interact with men in public at the most humorous levels and this would be one of those...the one-liners could go on and on...y'know like "hey mister I see you're selling hotdogs today!" or perhaps more subtle like "hey Tony...how's the pepperoni hangin'?" and then there's the old standby where you shuffle up and quietly ask "what do birds do?" and he says"Fly" and you say "Well,yours is undone!"Peace.

    yes I would, may not necessarily yell it out across a crowded train but I would also hope someone would let me know if I ever did

    I've been told a few time it 12 noon my wife has told me.got the message after looking at the clock.just to find out where did she get her time?
