I've seen dudes get in the office get labelled that for the most innocuous shite like asking women if they want something for lunch because he was going out for something.

I agree with that, women have a bad habit of projecting things and then taking it for fact. In my observational experience that's primarily a new generation flaw, and is probably attributed to the massive amount of texting that we do these days, people have lost the ability to rationally read others intent through tone and body language, and seem predisposed to thinking the worst of others. and that should stop.
it negates legit harassment, and it's very detrimental to the cause of stopping it.

That's essentially what this boils down to. Women can freely label men as sexual predators because they don't like the way they look.

For those of us old enough to remember before social media, # = Pound not HashTag.
So #MeToo actually reads PoundMeToo.

You're on to something. Just DMd every #MeTooer on my facebook feed to see if they wanted to come over and watch Schindler's List on netflix.

The fact that that statement is your takeaway is just as much a deflection on your part as it is on the women who unfairly label men, both are marginalized extremes, and focusing on that rather than admitting that harassment is a thing doesn’t do anything to help. It’s like playing defensive smoke and mirrors. Just be real about it, say that it sucks and it’s wrong and let’s fix it, from a balanced rational point of view.
If you can’t find a balanced rational point of view then maybe you have a bit more in common with those women than you think.

TL;skimmed, but as a female I don’t honestly care about most of that stuff. Just you know, don’t be a creepy rapist, and don’t hit on women who are basically ignoring you.
Women are just as derogatory about men, they’re just better at being quiet about it.
Pretty much this.
The vast majority of men who really bother women have social retardation at best - and are homeless/thug trash at worst. The average dude who would have the ability and self awareness to "fix" anything isn't a creep to begin with. Those who are the actual creeps either don't believe they are (therefore won't fix no matter how hard you try to make them see) .. OR they aren't intelligent enough to even be on the internet.
Real talk, 9 times out of 10 if you're being hollered at from a car or on the street or somewhere like a gas station, it's a trashy lowlife or even a homeless dude. They ain't on Facebook, nor are they watching CNN for these "tips"

I completely agree with what you said earlier about how women have muddied the waters and taken away from real incidents (which do happen) by being offended over nothing.
I'm trying to say that women in the workplace hold an incredible amount of power over men in 2017. If HR doesn't handle "the problem" as they see fit, they can take to social media and smear the "offender" as well as the company quite easily.

Women are just as sexually freakish as dudes. Go check out their behavior at male strip clubs

There is nothing you can do in response to women feeling victimized other than just don't be a complete tool to every woman you see.
I really hate that we have new social movements every couple weeks. shite is annoying and millions of people hashtagging about prayers for "_____", me too, etc... doesn't do shite to help anything or anyone.

Wow so hitting on a women is a creepy rapist now-a-days.
Good to know the pool of delusion for rapist has expanded so much.

During sex, seek enthusiastic consent. If your partner hesitates, stops reciprocating, avoids eye contact, becomes quiet, tense or frozen, or otherwise slows the tempo of any sexual encounter, then you should STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOING.
I mean, I knew this was all mostly trolling, but this part here that basically says real sex should play out like a pron scene puts the trolling over the top.

#Metoo.
Three years ago I was dressed in a monkey suit walking down Bourbon trying to get to a Mardi Gras parade. I saw a gay friend and had a drink in a gay bar real quick. I walked out and a 6'5" 400 pound guy grabs a chunk of my arse. I just laughed it off.
Though if I were a chick I would have a MeToo.

Lets legalize prostitution and see these bitches stfu up then. No man will put up with their bullshite if they can pay for some better puss without any of the nagging and staying around.

I think a well place compliment about about how good the sandwiches taste usually puts most women in the room over the moon. This author could learn a thing or two from me.

I get called these things (male equivalent) all the time by women in the workplace. Well, I work alone now but I used to by staff. And by clerks of court, checkout clerks etc. I love it. Because I'm not a little bitch.
Yep. I get called hon and sweetie at the office. Doesn't bother me.

She was being hyperbolic. And she isn't wrong. If someone is ignoring you, man or woman, go back to whatever you were doing. If a woman is eating dinner or having a drink while immersed in the bar TV, her phone, etc. and not even looking your way, it is probably on purpose Every person thinks they're the exception - they're the special one.
FWIW - I think the OP article is ridiculous. As does Georgia, it seems. I just agree with her simple answer - give other human beings around you their privacy when it seems they want it. Reading people is not this magical skill unless you're socially retarded. You should be able to tell pretty easily when someone wants you to get lost.

That is why you always ask for a blow job.

I'm sure there were some over the top things but generally most I read were pretty reasonable
