Hey, I'm a sensitive guy! I have feelings too!

Have you ever seen what’s become acceptable office attire in south Florida? I’ve seen strippers come out on stage with more covered up.

I worked in the restaurant industry years ago while going to school.. If any this ever hits hospitality workers there won't be a single restaurant employee left.. male or female.

Yeah, it would be worse than if restaurants started requiring sobriety of all employees

So all these young ladies that wear these lycra, form fitting yoga pants (pants being a very liberal term), that leave nothing to the imagination. Why do they wear them, if not to show off their ass in public and have men stare? I mean... really?

I hope they never go out of fashion, but it is difficult to not stare. Yet if caught staring I get the stink eye.

It is a double standard for sure. If women don't want advances (I don't mean actual unwanted touching), then wear friggin' saggy clothing and flannel shirts.

Just yesterday morning i got a full on down dog muff shot by the lady in front of me in our 5.30am yoga session. Apparently she either didn't get the memo, or didn't care that her $100 see through yoga pants were showing off her goods with no additional imagination needed.

The yoga pants maker CEO's response at the time of the see through yoga pants revelation was priceless. lol

People have the right to dress how ever they like and I don't feel it's fair to say someone was asking for it because of how they dress. Just because a woman dresses to impress, doesn't mean that she wanted to impress ME. That was just an unfortunate side effect, haha. On that note, what one guy thinks is hot differs from another. If I have a thing for women in burlap sacks then that girl who's dressing down is in trou-ble. Women in Burkas get assaulted. That's got to be the most un-sexually exciting clothing I personally have ever seen. The problem isn't how people dress, it's how people can't control them selves or don't understand/care about common social decency. Sickness, upbringing, just an all around ass? What ever the cause, there are some that just don't get it.

If a women dresses in a way that impresses a guy, even at work, and he says "Hey you look really nice today, would you like to have lunch?", that is not harassment. Even if he doesn't give up and later says, "Look I know you turned me down but I just have to ask more time", I still don't think it qualifies as harassment. Even if she complained and he explained that he was respectful and didn't make any lude comments or touch her, and apologized for making her uncomfortable I would hope it wouldn't go any further.

Now change that to "Hey Baby your tits look amazing, lets get lunch", and then smacking her ass, and you have another story. No one has the right to touch another person when they haven't signaled that it's OK.

I think whats going on in the media is way worse than that. Whether an ass-smacker would lose their job maybe depends on the workplace and the two people involved, but Weinstein allegedly told woman that the part she was reading for was topples, and there for to take off her top while reading. He then allegedly preceded to pleasure himself. That's a whole new level of off side. And these guys have real power. Actual power to render a woman out of work in their industry for ever. Now that it's out other victims are coming out of the woodwork because they weren't as strong, but now feel safe. You'll have supposed victim "crazies" now as well who come out with accusations that are false. Hopefully the investigation process weeds them out.

In the case of the person here who was left alone in the house with the daughter, I think you would have been well within your rights to ask to reschedule. Even make it a part of your contract that the client is not to leave children in the home unattended.

I'm a full time firefighter. I had a Captain who used to make just one firefighter go into homes for CO alarm calls. I am not allowed to refuse an order in an emergency situation but I told him flat out, that I would not. No way am I being left alone in someones house. They could say I stole money, belongings, or went through drawers, or worse, touched their child. F that. I will never be alone in someone's house, and as an officer, would never put that risk on a subordinate.

"Baby it's cold outside"

One side says it's a Christmas rape song.
The other side say's it a woman looking for excuse to stay due to what others will think.

If a woman says yes the first time, shes a floosy.
If a man presses, he's a sleaze bag.
No win scenario, maybe we should ask Captain Kirk, never mind, bad role model there too. Mr. Bond?

Curious. This is the second time in two days that this song has crossed my path in a discussion. I can't remember ever discussing this song before.

Certain behaviors seem to be baked into our culture.

You don't need to converse to date or procreate. Just swipe left. Or is it right. I have no idea. Brendon?

Ever listen to the words of "Tonight's The Night" By Rod Stewart?

Its funny. I loved that song growing up, never ever really knew what the words were. It wasnt until a few years ago where it came on and I really "Listened" Crazy it was ever on the radio! Client had it playing yesterday at his house and i thought to my self " Jeeze, Considering what is going on I cant believe people are ok with it....

Then I think about Jay-Z and what he's gotten away with....

Wife used to go around the house singing "skeet skeet skeet" around her mom. Her face turned white when I told her what that meant.

I have a right to walk through the projects waving around stacks of hundred dollar bills and not get robbed, but that doesn’t mean I should actually try it. Good judgement goes along way.

As for women in burkas being assaulted too, that’s usually in areas where the society is so sexually dysfunctional, that men are willingly strapping on explosive vests and blowing themselves up on a public bus in hopes to get laid in the afterlife. I’ve said it before, no guy that gets his dick sucked is blowing himself up to try to hookup with a virgin.

And there’s your new forum signature ;)

North America isn't any less sexually disfunctional. Just different and in a way that we are so used to hearing about that it's "normal".
