If any perverted, random guy tried to harass me I'll make sure his "thing" is no longer attached to his body.

One in 4 "saying" they've been sexually harassed means nothing. Everybody wants to be a victim these days.

@midnull Ididn't say that I reported anyone, just speaking about the double standard. I'm fine with any attention I get from women I just don't like people being two faced. Am I gay? No, but I have absolutely no problem with anyone that is.  This is 2011 and with your mindset you are the one who has something wrong with you.

@mrbriscoe2001

True.

Then do it. Instead of crying about it. And you wont be a prick, a lot of guys get harassed too. They're just pansies and don't want to look all unmacho in front of their guy coworkers. "What a chick grabbed your azz and you reported her?! WTF is wrong with you man? You should have hooked up with her! What are you gay???" Yeah, heard a lot of those before.

It would be easy to turn the tables on women with this issue. Guys in general are much more tolerant of sexual advances, leering, flirting. Women do these as well, but guys take the heat more often since women are more easily offended. I personally could turn in multiple women where I work for "sexual harassment" if I wanted to be a prick.

@mrbriscoe2001

she didnt however 3weeks later another incident took place which wasnt sexual harassment however the incident was brought up? but its ok dont worry i ll to a lawyer i dont care what women sense i didnt touch her on purpose

[mrbriscoe2001]

@blackoil911 Uhmm.I'm not an expert;;I just gave my opinion; if the lady didn't complain,I think you're ok' women aren't dumb;they can usually sense intent pretty well...

@mrbriscoe2001

@mrbriscoe2001 ... "Hostile environment;" and in the areaof viscous gossip and pathological meanness in support of the High School hierarchy--Women win hands down..

@twinkimaster I'm sorry you had a rough time at High School;but Sexual harassment was a concept invented to deal with problems perpetuated mostly by ADULT men against working women ;the definition has always been troublesome and subjective;It's always seemed ludicrous to me to apply it to people in the early years of sexual development;if it's unwanted (non-sexual)you have to let the person know you dont like it;obviously,unwanted sexual touching is an easy call;but the second definition is..
