[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Non-stop sexual harassment? Maybe not, but non-stop sexualization, yes.

[b]I defy any woman on this board to say they've never felt uncomfortable by a man's attention -- whether it involved staring/leering, comments, unwanted touches or unwanted pursuit for dates/sex. That is a reality I think men simply don't understand.[/b]

That said, I don't think inappropriate comments rise to the level of being trapped in a car with a man twice your age who is forcing your face toward his groin or being asked for sex by someone who could end your career with a single call. [/quote]

But what about all of the times YOU LIKED IT? How is a man supposed to know in advance if you're going like it or not unless he tries? As long as you backs off when you tell him, there is no problem. GROW UP! [/quote]

I think you need to grow up, and quickly, before you get charged with assault or thrown off the job for harrassment.

A man can know by ASKING.  Instead men are presuming the privilege of touching us as they please until we say no.  And often they don't hear our no - neither in our body language nor our words.

Try asking ...  before you touch.  And then listen.  Really listen to what a woman says and what her body language says.[/quote]
