Women who complain about men who hit on women

[klr]

"The boys watch the girls while the girls watch the boys who watch the girls go by ... "

[Rum]

I have a complaint.

[pErvinalia]

I would feel annoyed at their thoughtless overlooking of my femaleness. I had to fight the urge to think of them as somehow allied with their harassers in their shared inability to acknowledge the fact that I am also a woman.

I think the lad doth protest too much. Sounds much more like a whining self absorbed brat. Seriously how many people walk around making that their primary concern, what does she want a prize for having a cunt?

I put it to you that I didn't say that.

Women who complain about men that hit women; the next fun parody topic?

[DaveDodo007]

So are we allowed to 'harass' them again or not. Wish that they would make up their minds already.

As long as you don't make the ugly ones uncomfortable by not harassing them.

All this drama over what should be a simple financial transaction.

Here we have it -- now, women who complain about men hitting on women or "creeping" are actually demeaning the women who don't get hit on by the creepers:

All this can leave women who tend not to be targeted by non-platonic male attention (positive or negative) with an odd sense of resentment. It was, for example, incredibly hard for me to be sympathetic with women complaining about how much harassment they experience when they issue universally-worded (but clearly not universally-applicable) warnings. Instead of feeling sympathy for their mistreatment, I would feel annoyed at their thoughtless overlooking of my femaleness. I had to fight the urge to think of them as somehow allied with their harassers in their shared inability to acknowledge the fact that I am also a woman.

Ditto for the exclamations of “Oh my glob, you didn’t know that [insert name here] is creepy! Ha! Duh, he’s a creeper!” All that the mocking of a woman who haven’t realized that a certain man has a reputation accomplishes is to point out that he hasn’t harassed her. There are better ways to potentially warn someone than to single them out as undesirable to someone (albeit a “creeper”). Mention that he has a reputation for lechery, perhaps, instead of declaring that he hits on all girls.

Discuss.

Guaranteed she's ugly and that's why no guys hit on her. No doubt she's resentful towards all the cunts who complain about getting hit on all the time.

I have a complaint.

Is it catching?

[Audley Strange]

So in short "Ugly wimminz needs harrassments too!"

Like the one I saw in that elevator?

They all make you pay, prostitutes just in advance

Wait, what?

To exacerbate matters, the clubs I joined, hobbies in which I engaged, social groups I helped to form, and major whose classes I most attended were all widely reputed to be, in cissexist language, “sausage-fests.”

What the fuck is wrong with saugage fest?

What is wrong with joining a club to get laid?, the purpose of these organisations is to meet people with a similar interest , what you actually do at then is often secondary
