I think you might have a case if they pinched you from any other angle....

I'm old and retired, and sometimes get in a funky mood thinking about all the missed opportunities when I was young. I married young, and stayed true to my wife, never so much as kissed anyone else since marriage. The things that gals did in the workplace to entice me, and attempt to draw me in. Like place their hands in my pockets, saying they're cold, and I yank them out, because it's my pants pockets not my jacket pockets. Missed opportunities, but my relationship with my wife is intact after 46 years.

I never considered making a case of sexism against the gals in the workplace. I think when the tables are turned, in their situation they over-react against some guys flirting on them. Then there was the time a gay male supervisor made overtures towards me and I had to fend him off, I was glad he quit soon after. I could have made a case against him!

Same thing with Megyn Kelly and Roger Ailes, though there's apparently a lot less to the Powers-O'Reilly story than the other one.

O'Reilly's comment was stupid, but when you know the context it would be hard to characterize it as serious harassment.

A lot of things are considered sexual harassment today taht wouldn’t hve been a decade or two ago.
