If women hate sexual harassment...

The carob molasses [however people might refer to it in shops here] actually does look pretty interesting.

I haven't ever seen it before, the jar- but it's possible I've had it and not known.
I could likely find it in one of the smaller places near me so now I want to hunt some down.

In the Netherlands people eat molasses made from sugar beets or sugar cane, and that apple syrup is more or less the same but made from apples. The difference is that the apple syrup is sweet-sour, while the other molasses are just sweet.

When you get 99% of your knowledge on social interaction from Anime and TV, it's not a surprise when you end up being clueless about how the real world works.

I think maybe the trouble is that there is a question of how much you have actually "seen" either case, whether you have seen it at all?
That is, are you basing any of this from personal experience in the real world or academic studies or something else with some basis or is this just essentially what you have gathered about the topic from other parties?

My knowledge on the issue- specifically work place harassment- comes from being in uncomfortable situations at work and needing to know what my options are but also from being a manager and having to assess a situation from that point of view. It can happen both ways, and does. No, not as often but it does.

Also- you don't just get booted out of the door because you give someone a compliment.That is not harassment. Harassment is intended to harass and in the workplace is often a constant, not a misunderstanding. So when a situation is looked at that part is addressed and any decent company is going to assess either point of view. [though, not all companies are decent]


As far as harassment, down the whole spectrum of it, people "baiting" others into trouble is actually not nearly as common as is often said. For some reason this ridiculous idea is perpetuated. There are numerous studies which come at it from every angle, and they all come to the same conclusion: The actual incidents vastly outweigh the disingenuine claims.


So, I mean. I kind of have an issue with you stating some things that seem to come from an ignorant point of view myself. It can actually be quite harmful.

In anime if the guy harasses the girl, she smacks him with a super-powered fist often throwing him up in the air.

Like Naruto's teacher who was almost killed by that lady-leader because he peeked at her in bath.

I've gotten unwelcome looks and catcalls before, and trust me, I was not wearing a big cocky grin on my face.

This simply isn't true. Who ever has led you to believe this has lied to you.

We should really derail this thread to a more civilised topic, like food. With pics.

Probably not the thing to say. But sure.

Post your meal today.

Got a chicken shawarma lately.

I find this whole thread insulting. Last time a stranger groped my private areas against my will I cried. I've seen no woman in a similar situation having smiled either.

I recently got asked via text message from a man. He told me "I want to see your :insertvulgarwordthatirefusetotypehere:" and then got asked if he could see my chest (he used a very vulgar term there, too).

He also demanded that I would be his girlfriend and I sure as hell didn't have a smile on my face after all of that.

Let's talk about food instead, the op is too dumb.

I am just so incredibly hungry right now. Tomorrow I am going to eat a hamburger. I NEED IT.

Since this thread sucks balls... here are some deep fried ragout balls with beeeeeeer. BITTERBALLEN!! !
