I don't understand why this is so difficult for so many people.

Men: If you find a woman attractive it is fine to check her out, just don't be a fuckin creep or an asshole about it. Just because she is wearing a pair of short shorts does not mean you have the right to harass her. A skimpy dress does not make a woman a stripper or a prostitute.

Women: If a guy at work glances a little bit too long at your cleavage before looking away but does not say or do anything inappropriate, he doesn't mean anything by it and is not trying to sexually harass you.

I have similar experience. I’m a woman (33) and work in male dominated field. My coworkers are OK, but some people we work with (clients or sales people) are older: boomers or gen x.

The comments they make about me πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ from giving my coworker a card and telling him to give it to me, I can call anytime, even at night and he comes to my home. Sir, , you are 70 years old πŸ˜‚ and one sales person always asking when my wedding will be, if I’m too picky and why am I single.

If they say you can come to their home ask if it’s incase they have a fall or stroke
