It is polite for a gentleman to offer to retrieve droped items for a lady. When a lady wears very short dresses and continually dropes items while insisting upon bending at the waist to retrieve them for herself, even in the presence of capable gentlemen, it is quite possible that the lady has something other than politeness in mind.
Thank you.

No! Place your right foot pointing sideways behind your left foot pointing forward and gracefully bend at your knees. Come to think of it, don't ever bend over. It's so bad for your back muscles.

Only if you are performing at a high class strip joint. Otherwise I suggest you bend your knees and squat down. In prior times most men would have picked the item up for you, but in this day of "equality" droop and scoop honey.

Regardless of who's around, bend at the knees with legs CLOSED. I even turn to the side so I will lessen the risk of exposure.

I guess it depends on how short the dress is. It's probable better to kneel down & get it than to bend over (length permittinfg).

Polite only when you wear a thong and don't bend your knees.

you can bend at the knees, and you should be fine. however, not all women do this when wearing a dress, yet some of them know this... i think it is a strategy thing...

it is far better for a lady in a skirt or knee length or higher dress to drop one knee as she bends from the waist avoiding shoving her *** in the air
