Tried to Explain something to a woman... white knights do their thing

So a colleague of mine posts that a man told her she lost weight and looks "just about right".
Kinda pushing the limit but acceptable to me.
I respond that women say this kind of shite to me at least once a week at the office. They even comment on how my arse looks in new pants.
I take it as a compliment and move on with my day.
Because it's your option to take offense or not.
All of a sudden I get 23 notifications. All white knights saying i don't know what I'm talking about. It's different for women and I should shut up.
So my similar experience is invalidated because I have a dick?
Guess so.

I find life is much easier if you just don't talk to anyone at work about anything besides work.

Rule #1: Don't have ANY conversation with a woman regarding weight.
It will never end well

So she should take it as a compliment that he actually said to her she’s “just about right”
He’d have been better off just saying she looked nice. Bc he did not compliment her. Or he should’ve kept his mouth shut.
Meanwhile someone saying your arse looks nice in pants is a compliment. Unless they said “your arse is almost looking nice”

That seems over the line
But yeah, keep your mouth shut. You'll never win

Does your company have it's own in-house social media are are all of you using email like a group text?

Who are they to assume gender?

Depends. Does your dick identify as a vagina?

post where?
I message board style forum for all employees may be one of the worst ideas i've ever heard for a company.
Also, you should really learn to just not respond when people at work say something you disagree with that isn't involved with your work responsibilities.

Well yeah, women are more self conscious about it than men. That's not really debatable.
I don't understand the problem here.

Ask them why they hate equality

If you are a white male, you shouldn’t talk to women unless you want to get #metoo’d.

Is the time ever going to come where guys can get #metoo'd for making comments on social media or message boards?
Because if so, I'm fricked
If so Mikel is going away for a very long time

The babbling first part of your post led me to believe you were a woman. Is this on Facebook or something? Group text? Where do you work that people have an ongoing conversation about body types?

It’s dumb to comment on a woman’s looks and weight at work.
It is supremely dumb to give a backhanded compliment and to let them know they don’t meet your standards.
Unless this guy is a Greek god he just looks stupid.
