Can men respect women if they're trained to be perverts?

It happens all the time.

Any man in America who makes any sexual references whatsoever in an office environment is asking for trouble. Males in positions of responsibility have to be absolutely above reproach because any utterance can be used to deprive him of his career and life.

Furthermore, Mackris does not explain why she didn't just hang up when O'Reilly allegedly harassed her repeatedly over the telephone.

That is what jumped out at me. It sounds like she stayed on the line for extended periods of time.

It's ironic that I think the average woman of the 1840s and 1950s, for example, appears to have been a whole lot tougher in matters like this. If a man began acting significantly less than a gentleman, a woman would quickly put him in place with a slap, and otherwise tell him that if he kept it up her brothers, boyfrined, or husband would come by and kick the crap out of him. Seems to me the pre-feminist woman handled these things a lot better.

Hell, that's how I handled things all weekend.

What about it?

[RandallFlagg]

Never any doubts in our minds (although some might actually have enjoyed it)....

What? That wasn't me. nevermind...going away now....

Hey, you were also armed. An edged weapon can do a lot of convincing.

[missyme]

What I said earlier she has a puritan pilgrim look to her..

Like she might be a bit of a pansy..

Why do you have your foot up on the kitchen counter?

I am not blaming the victims or insinuating that women are inviting harassment. Far from it. No matter what they are exposed to and no matter how women dress, men must be in control of themselves and treat women as dignified and intellectual equals.

Uhm... he makes some good points but this is not one of them. Women who dress like sluts are indeed inviting harassment. JMHO.

Is it realistic to ask men to separate what they see on television and in magazines from their interactions with women in the boardroom?

Of course it is. And likewise, women can distinguish between their coworkers and the rippling six-packs they see in magazines.

[Born in a Rage]

On my radio show, one man called in to say that there is a woman who works right across from his cubicle who wears see-through blouses nearly every day. "She's essentially wearing only a bra in the office, and I often have to put my hand in front of my face to block her out to stop myself from staring."

Well, then I guess women will have to start wearing burkas in order to protect themselves from the glares of men, right?

You tell'em bud.

Russert, Mathews, and O'Reilly are Democraps to the bone. Big show about selling "fairness." But when the chips are down these creeps go Democrat all the way.

If they really wanted to be "fair." they woulkd admit that up front. of the three, Russert approaches the closest to honesty, of the three, O'Reilly is the dumbest, and of the three the biggest toad is matthews.

What??

[DefCon]

You girls are so catty to each other !
I can't look at her and tell if she is amish !
And - to call her a 'pansy'? - I'm shocked !
I was kinda getting the hots for her before you said that.
