What about if both parties are fine with it, should it still not be allowed? I've worked in places were both sexes have a laugh about similar stuff. It's not as black and white as you are painting it out to be.
A lot depends on context and on the flip side there are lots of women who loved being praised on their appearance.
And no I am "not one of those chaps who struggles to behave appropriately around women" you sanctimonious bellend!
I fail to see how giving a women at work a compliment about how good she looks in a dress is acting like a prick. I do agree with you on outright sexual abuse in the street though.
How is it any different from a women saying to a man "That T-shirt really shows off your chest/muscles"? Should that be treated as sexual harassment?
It's all rather pathetic and dumbs down society. Far too many people happy to be offended at anything they can come up with, usually on behalf...
