Lebow “said with a smile on his face, ‘women’s lingerie’ and all his buddies laughed.”

Was it the smile that got her panties in a wad or did she think he should have requested “men’s lingerie”?

Yeah, it’s so difficult to navigate normal conversations with the opposite sex. Who can tell the difference between innocent remarks like “ladie’s lingerie” and “Great presentation the other day”? Crazy how women just randomly take offense to anything. Must have been that time of the month, amirite?

She's no lady.

I wonder if he did this on purpose to jerk her chain.

Are you kidding? I’m a girl, and we used to make the same lame joke back in the 70-80’s on any elevator as it stopped along the way. “Polsky’s, 4th floor, lingerie. (Ohio)

It’s like saying “ take my wife, please.” An old fashion, used to be funny comment.

NO APOLOGIES. ENOUGH. I wish I could send this guy an attaboy for refusing to be pushed around.

Sounds like the opening to a certain Bad Boys of Boston song.

Well hello Mr Tyler

Looks like somebody has reached the age where she’s invisible and bitter.

It was San Francisco! What’s so unusual about a male wanting to go to the lingerie department?

I don’t think that is a joke on the woman. Womens lingerie is a department in a department store. Its a request that could have been made 40 years ago when elevator operators existed. It has nothing to do with the women pressing the button. Its a joke she just doesn’t get. And he could have said it with all men there as well. Its not about her.

a gentleman would not have made the comment to begin with.<<<

Nope..But a true gentleman could have made it and make her feel comfortable....

But for some gentleman its better to be seen and not heard...They don’t have the knack...

“As a survivor of sexual harassment in the academy, I am quite shaken by this incident,” Sharoni wrote.

Was that the Laughing Academy, professor? I saw your picture.
