Flirting is basically rape. I'm not sure why you would excuse that sick behavior.

One of the girls at work has gained about 15lbs all in her tits and arse since winter started.

Yes. I give it a look.

What red blooded male wouldn't?

It’s a fine line for males. Many men have had to be persistent with women who rejected them originally and eventually they marry them.

Of course some people take it too far, but I’m sympathetic towards males because they have a tough gig in the dating world.

And then what of the girls who intentionally play hard to get, enjoy being pursued, or find persistence attractive?

I'm not some boorish "all women are lying about sexual assault/harassment" type guy, but come on, the behavior some modern day feminists push for is not remotely realistic or even wanted by most women

Honestly, I think most men say or do something that can make a woman uncomfortable. But, I think a lot of it has to do with the women though. You can shut it down 9 times out of 10.

Which is evident when only 20ish percent of women identify as a feminist. No telling how much lower that number would be without their campaign to inform everyone what the dictionary definition of the word is.

Exactly. Most decent folks are for equal rights between the sexes. That ship successfully sailed long ago.

This modern feminism is some new shite and ain't about equality--it's about preferential treatment for females and general denigration of masculinity.

I think men are generally rougher with their language and friendly interactions. I don't think they always realize that they might be being offensive or over the line. But, women who are intimidated by that need to step up and say something. At the time, not years later.

I squeeze up on some of the women at work. Nothing wrong with a little sexual horseplay around the office.

Don't even try and play the game, its not winnable. Feminists bitch about how its sexist if men treat women differently, then bitch when they treat men and women the same.

If a guy tempers his language or how he behaves just because there's a woman present he loses. If he behaves normally like he does around his other male colleagues he loses. He's going to lose no matter what. Why take part in a game you cannot win?

I appreciate it when a man isn't rough with his language around me. I'm not a shrinking violet by any means, but overly sexual discussions and language coming from a man who is not my husband makes me uncomfortable. But, I'm not one to have detailed discussions like that with my girlfriends, either. Private things are private. However, if you say something that bothers me, I'll tell you to your face then and there. If you continue or try to get my goat, then maybe I would need someone (ie HR) to intervene. But, the times this has happened to me and I said something, the men were genuinely embarrassed. I don't think their goal was to be offensive or to embarrass me. They were just shooting off at the mouth. Not everything is a big deal. Sometimes you just need to speak up directly to the person.

Very true, people aren't mind readers and I think most people would be surprised what can be accomplished (at least most of the time) by respectfully voicing your opinion.

Definitely. And the tone you choose has a big impact on how you are received. I had a male boss whistle and snap at me to get something for him off a printer once. I knew what he wanted, and I could have thrown a fit as it did piss me off to be treated like that in front of a client. But, I waited until the client was gone and told him, "I think you were trying to pull up my name earlier and all that came out was whistles and snapping. If you'd like me to respond in the future, feel free to come up with any female name. I'll answer to Susan or Beth or whatever. But that was the only time I will answer to whistles and snaps because I'm not a cocker spaniel." And just said it in a laughing way, but I was clear. He wmdidnt get mad. He laughed but was beet red and apologized. Didn't haopen again. I think if I had said it in front of the client or in a bitchy tone, it would not have been so well received.

bull shite.
You don't wear yoga pants if you don't want people checking out your arse.
You don't wear shirts with your tits popping out if you don't want people checking out your tits.

If hot guy that just walked out a lambo says something about their arse or tits, it's ok. if dude in the wife beater getting out his 1995 ford ranger says something to her, it's sexual harrassment.

Now does the modestly dressed girl at work or walking around the mall enjoy being cat called, probably a little b/c they all still like the attention a little bit, but it most likely bothers them a good bit.

Just asked one of my close female friends and after an initial “I don’t want to talk about it,” she noted that it’s very prevalent, and that she was harassed this very week.

This won’t bode well for that a-hole.

I didn’t realize you were such a sexual predator, T.
