Two words:

Bowling, motherfuckers.

It makes me nervous, but I am still hopeful that this won't have an impact on the company.

Isn't it nice to be in harmony? :)

I think the need for "the woman's perspective" comes out of how much bullshit comes out of people who are clearly trapped within "the male's perspective." Trying to show the flipside of it is important in helping people imagine what it's like to walk a mile in another person's moccasins.

I'd like to make it clear: I believe (and reality reflects this) that anyone of any gender can be sexually harassed, assaulted, and raped by anyone of any other gender, be it opposite-sex, same-sex, one of the alternative gender identities, etc. To suggest that this doesn't happen is offensive and unrealistic;…

Yes, and we've always been at war with Eastasia.

There's an extent to which we are both absolutely totally right, and many ways in which we are wrong. It's a very fuzzy line and can be incredibly treacherous to navigate.

Yesssssssssssssss yes yes yes yes.

No, they don't all respond with palpable fear, but clearly this woman did. She was ready to club a man to death if he made a move. I don't blame her.

RetroWeirdo: I decided it would be a good idea to sum you up with your own words, just so there's clear documentation of how much of a worthless piece of shit you are.

The situation hadn't yet escalated to the point where such intent could have been proven in a court of law. Thankfully.

Did you not do your reading? After all the effort I went to get you those links? Look, here, let me illuminate:

We were talking sexual harassment, not sexual assault.

Reporting it can be completely destructive for someone's career, life, mental and emotional health, etc. It's often better to attempt to navigate the situation more socially than dropping the Sexual Harassment Nuke, especially if there's only been one subtle incident.

*sigh*

Thank you, Captain Reductive Argument. Can I speak to Admiral Logic now?

HOW ON EARTH CAN YOU NOT COMPREHEND THE PALPABLE FEAR THAT COMES WITH HAVING BEEN SEXUALLY HARASSED.
