It says if your flirting was unwanted and upset the victim it would be harassment. If you're upsetting people with your flirting, you need to work on your moves.

Total bollock, obviously women don't find you desirable.
I am no oil painting, but have had women shoving their breast in my face and brushing them across my body.
I have even had women comment on my arse and touch it.
So lets have a bit of balance here mate.

Why is that though? I'd argue it's because the laws on sexual acts in this country depict women as victims and the men as the attackers. This filters down to how young people are educated and it then filters into how men and women act. Even now, with this desire for equality, there is still an expectation from women that men "make the move". It also leads to many men not reporting things which clearly are sexual harrassment/assault simply because it's not deemed to be "manly".
Basically, we can all be victims in some way, it just so happens that the way men and women tend to be victims in regards to this element of the law differs because of societal expectations of the different genders.

I laughed at this question in particular because I had a very similar situation this morning. Although instead of complimenting her on her perfume, I just told her it had an interesting aroma that was a tad overpowering. I think the lady in question was mainly offended that I hadn't complimented her on how nice it was.

It would also have to pass the Reasonableness test (AKA "the man on the Clapham Omnibus") such that a normal person could find it offensive.

Locked her in the stationary cupboard and fed her on snacks from the vending machine until she agreed to go for a drink

Brexiteers don't know how to use apostrophes? Even by the standards of Brexit insults, that is really scraping the barrel! I suspect remainers tend to struggle with semi-colons .... Geez!

Shirley the phrase 'The man on the Clapham Omnibus' is in itself now sexist and unacceptable?
Most of them can't even spell apostrophe.

What a crock! Nearly every question was dependent on undisclosed "context". This is just part of the new puritanical movement designed to emasculate the last bit of juice remaining in our culture.
