The one lynx didn’t accept the other lynx’s invitation on Lynxed-in. Lynx are big networkers.

Still one of the greatest movie themes of all time, though. (I’d put it in the top 5, personally.)
I think it’s more like a reasonable reaction to cultural norms than sexism. In our culture, it’s normal for women to assist other women in that kind of way, but it’s not normal for men to do it. And it’s also, sadly, normal for men to make comments that make women uncomfortable. I’d be happy for a man to point out…
Tact! You haz it!
This was a really nice way to handle it.
That’s not cheating. That’s an excellent way to handle anything that seems like a one time wardrobe malfunction, from a sheer jumpsuit to an open fly. I was on the receiving end of it once - bright underwear under a dress that wasn’t sheer but wasn’t thick enough to hide hot pink - and was glad to have the chance to…
Turns out one of my favourite t-shirts that I’ve been enjoying wearing for years is seriously see-through with even a modicum of bright light.
Generally speaking, unless someone’s going out clubbing, they don’t know their outfit’s see-through.
I’ve worn a skirt before that I didn’t realize was practically transparent in the sun, so I’ve always appreciated a female colleague pointing it out to me. If a male coworker told me the same thing (assuming we didn’t have a close friendship), I would be extremely uncomfortable.

I actually really like the look of the FatBob.
Speaking of signaling...very tacticool.
Yes, I was a college prof for 23 years and I had the opposite problem too.
Having flown JAL first class, I’m now spoiled for business class.
I had a nearly identical experience a few months ago. Oh. My. God. The whole experience was sublime. It’s not something I could ever afford to do myself (the upgrade was because of a relative in the airline industry, so definitely a one-off and not a regular thing). But it was wonderful to be comfortable on a plane…
Yup. K-12 teachers are regularly reminded to do the same. Gotta keep things obviously OK, with witnesses as much as possible.
No one has brought up GPS hacking.
That sounds like heaven. We’re planning a family trip to India this year and I’m already dreading the long, long flight in economy. I’m afraid we just can’t afford to put all of us in 1st. It would cost a small fortune.
Good policy!
Lets also consider some differences..
