I think the most appalling thing in the article was that the initial judgement was a summary judgement against him.

"A violation is not established merely by evidence showing sporadic use of abusive language, gender-related jokes, and occasional teasing"

Bullshit, I know of a case where a female employee made the comment "God, I'm horny", the male said "Well, maybe you should get some dick then", and she successfully sued for an EEO violation.

Yeah, but I see the next 5-10 years being saturated with counter "he said she said" sexual harassment claims.

Scenario that will play out.

Jane sit's on Joe's lap in his cubicle

Joe files a complaint

Jane claims joe came on to her and she rejected him, he is abuse system to get back at her.

Result is at best a wash, worst Joe has to fight.

-Environment of "might as well let it slide, not worth the trouble" sets it back fro 15 years.

Don't forget, in this day and age

women never lie about rape,

all men are potential rapists,

all men are potential pedophiles.

all men want to have sex with all women,

all men are a potential danger to women and children.

men can't be raped

men would never turn down sex.

When a boy who fathered a child with an adult women when he was below age of consent can be sued for child support...

... yeah. Glad sexual harassment in the work place got fixed.

A girl I worked with used to grab my ass all the time. My only problem with it was that she would sneak up on me and do it, which often startled the hell out of me.

This is not new precedent. Title VII protects women and men against (among other things) employment discrimination "because of . . . sex."

I understand that a lot of men here feel that everything is stacked against them, but it is vital that MRAs resist the temptation of reflexive victimhood and know and exercise their rights.

I like being sexually harassed at work. Old young hot ugly fat skinny..whatever. I love it. The fact that people don't know how do deal with it is ridiculous. I'm not talking about "fuck me or fired" type of stuff but you should be able to be sexual without everyone whining about it.
