      It's also rape.

        If it's unwanted and not simply "You look nice today"

        Don't worry men get sexually harassed too.

          The only sexual harassment some of the male posters on here would get is being dry humped by a dog.

            Would "you are **** ugly and I wouldn't shag you if you were the last man on earth" constitute sexual harassment?

              Well the tone of the article suggests that even if it IS "You look nice today", that still constitutes harassment if the female opts to define it that way.
              Over the top nonsense akin to the Salem Witch trials.

                Then don't say it, we won't be offended by the omission.

                  Indeed I don't - in fact with most women at work I simply do not even do anything except talk work.

                  Nowadays anything else is just too risky

                  Would be nice if women would stop acting like howling banshees when they do not get their own way.

                    And who empowered YOU to speak on behalf of all females?
