They say looking at someone for more than 5 seconds is "creepy".

quote:

Netflix has introduced new anti-harassment training in the wake of the #metoo movement that rocked Hollywood and seriously disrupted production on its House of Cards show.

New rules imposed on set reportedly include no looking at anyone for longer than five seconds, no lingering hugs, no flirting and no asking for a colleague's phone number.

“Everyone was spoken to about #MeToo," an on-set runner currently working on the new season of Black Mirror told The Sun.

"Senior staff went to a harassment meeting to learn what is and isn’t appropriate. Looking at anyone longer than five seconds is considered creepy.

lol females are all about double standards... whenever Magic Mike and 50 shades of Grey came out it was the best thing ever but once men say one thing semi sexual about a woman then all hell breaks loose

That Metalocalypse episode showing the Mordhaus sexual harrassment training film has come true.

Pretty much anything except ignoring the woman resulted in a cattle prod being used on the man.

I feel bad for everyone involved. A whole culture trying to build around not offending the small slice of women with no ability to form meaningful relationships with men and hate everyone

Didn’t women bitch about policies at movie theaters showing 50 Shades?

I seem to recall some interesting choices being made by the facilities because of the belief that the little man in the boat would get rocked during mid show.

Asking for a phone number is sexual harassment now?

Honestly, a lot of the women likely to make these complaints aren’t worth 5 seconds of looking.

Kind of like the one gal I know who won a sexual harassment case. When I was told she had sued a mailman and won over it, my first question was whether the guy was blind.

I think this only applies to “below the line” workers.

Director et all still get to look because they can help someone’s career.

A Sam and Diane,a Jim and Pam, and a Ross and Rachel couldn't survive in this climate. What has the world come to?

I can cum in five seconds.

Can I look for 3 seconds, look away for a bit and go for three more seconds later?

I'm sure if it's the handsome stud the female employee wants to get it on with then she won't file a complaint.

Lol. This will drive women absolutely insane. They love being desired and looked at more than anything! The most sure fire way to peak their interest is to ignore them. I sense many claims of women sexually assaulting men if this is adhered to successfully.

Asking whether or not asking for a phone number qualifying as sexual harassment is now sexual harassment...

Veils, if we can get our women to wear veils all this creepiness will be eliminated.
