True. She also didn't call it sexual harassment either. Se said she felt 'sexualized'. Aka If she had been a guy-would that guy have bothered?!...Probably not. Aka she felt he was looking for sex and I can't hold it against her for probably being right. Last edited by circusboy : 12 December 2017 at 03:59 PM. |

I know right. The thought process doesn't pan out past the first 10 seconds of thought.I'm at work at the copier machine with a co-worker and try to make a flirtatious attempt at a "move". Or what if we are all at the bar and you all have had something to drink and you invite your coworker who is also in a tipsy but lively mood over....Does that change things? Son - " Hey dad, I met a great girl at work, we're on a date tonight!! " Dad - " WORK?!?!, shit son we need to talk " Son - " Is there a problem? " Dad - " Hell yes. You're basically a creep and and possibly a danger to woman. You need to apologies in some way - maybe come out on Twitter or Facebook " Son - " Dad, lay of the Soy products, it's cool - she and I get on great " Dad - " That's beside the point, your toxic masculinity and privilege is the problem. Whether the girl realises it or not, she is a victim here, and a helpless one at that. " Son - " But she asked me for the date " Dad - " Some how you're still to blame. Men are always the problem - it's the way now. If this took place at the work place, you are a creep. It is as simple as that " Son - " Well actually she asked me after work whilst on the bus home " Dad - " Ah - that's alright then, you're in the clear. But remember - all interactions between 8.00am and 5.00pm are essentially rape " __________________

So I guess you'll just have to figure it all out then.
Good luck. |

The problem is that most harassers view their unsolicited/unwanted advances as benign and then certain guys get outright verbally aggressive/dismissive with women after they're turned down and basically unmask all the previous nice things that were said as total bs.
