I think men should collectively just start ignoring women and quit stepping all over ourselves trying to impress someone. It would be hilarious to see the results.

I remember getting pinched on my bottom by a girl in a disco. I never got to know her but it was lovely.
Years later, concindering myself as a nice decent chap, always treating women nicely and kindly in a true gentleman way. I was in a bar talking to a girl, drinking alcohol, smoking cigarettes, we even ate some cookies together which had some hash in them. All merry.
Then I pinched her on her bottom! No offence intended. Just showing that I liked her. Damn was she offended. He told some other guys sitting at the bar.
I had to leave quickly, very quickly so as not to get beaten up.

I place the blame squarely on men, should have never let those women off their leashes in the first place.

The way I see it it is only sexual harassment(or harassment of any form) when the "victim" does like the person making the proposition.


An old school friend of mine is a pipe layer up in Maryland his company gets many jobs at the U.S. Naval academy in Annapolis. He told me one day they where on a break and a female cadet walked past so one of the workers simply said "good afternoon" to her and she responded in kind and kept walking.A few minutes later two military police came up asking why the workers where harassing cadets.My friend explained that the only thing any of his workers had said to anyone all day was a neutral greeting.The cops explained that a female cadet had complained about being sexually harassed.My friend asked them if saying "good afternoon" to someone constitute sexual harassment they said that it did not then proceeded to warn them not to talk to any cadets.

I'm thinking of joining the AAFC to be able to shoot guns, learn military discipline, and find a like-minded girl...

If I ask a cadet out, perhaps I should do it off-base

I can't say I'm surprised

All this feminist crap wouldn't have happened in the first place if they didn't get the right to vote way back when somewhere in the 1920's.

Surely you guys must be able to ID, from a distance, which girl is full of cr@p and which is not. Usually just a visual assessment tells you not to even give her the time of day.
