Why is it sexual harassment to compliment a woman on her looks if you are a man, but not sexual harassment to compliment a man on his looks?

[Anonymous]

Complimenting a man on his looks isn't sexual harassment no matter what gender you identify as, and if a woman compliments a woman is also isn't sexual harassment, but if a man does it, it is? Can someone explain this ass backwards logic? Seems like a double standard to me.

Look. You have got to know the difference between complimenting and sexually harassing. You're an adult, you're not that dumb. I'll go over it for you again.
"Wow I really like your boots! they're rad, where did you get them?" a compliment, not sexual harassment, fine.
"Damn honey, nice tits!" not a compliment, sexual harassment.
It's not that hard. No one is complaining about men actually complimenting women.

The problem is people don't know the difference. Look at this article. www.theblaze.com/.../terry-bradshaw-erin-andrews-compliment

Nothing he said was sexually explicit. But Twitter is screaming their head off about sexual harassment

[kqueen]

You're convinced the entire world has a double standard because a few people said something was sexual harassment one time? Plus I'd say that's in a gray area, it is kind of gross of him to talk like that to someone in a professional setting. You know he would have never said something like that to another man.

Just because you don't think there is a trend doesn't mean there isn't. There are studies that show men are afraid to be alone with women because anything you say can be considered sexual harassment. Google it

bro dont even argue with her her account name is queen thats a red flag

[kqueen]

yeah and women have been afraid to be alone with men for all of time. Sorry if I'm not exactly sympathetic

[kqueen]

@CHadwww it's a reference to a D&D character I played named Kyatra who was a queen lol

[Asker]

Well then don't expect us to be sympathetic when bad things happen to you that are out of our control.

[kqueen]

I don't. I also have been taught to never be in a room alone with a man since I was about 5, if you want context. y'all are whiny as fuck

[Asker]

I don't care what you think when you are ok with the bad things your gender does because "the opposite gener is worse." Welcome to my block list, hope you're comfortable there.

it's not that simple... I compliment women often enough, never been accused of sexual harassment

compliments and harassments are just two very, different things... and there's also many other factors considered as well

[Asker]

It'll catch up with you eventually. I refuse to say anything that isn't professional and I won't go into a room alone with a female colleague. I must have someone else there. Turns out having someone else there saved me from a false sexual assault allegation. Only reason I didn't get arrested was because I had a friend in the room with me when she claimed it happened and he verified I didn't go within 6 feet of her.

[NathanDavis]

I really doubt you will

[Asker]

It's a good thing I don't care to be anything more than civil and professional with women. I also didn't approach women I was interested in, I let one who was interested in me come to me instead and now I am married to her.

[NathanDavis]

I really doubt that as well

[CHadwww]

some women just want to complain about everything and anything just tryna have that victim mentality

[Asker]

I get it, but it's a two way street. Men can be victims too, but women want to use non-sequtor arguments to defend their points such as, violence towards us is worse so our behavior is justified. Two things can be true at the same time. Just because violence against them can be bad doesn't mean what they chose to do to us isn't bad too.
