And they aren't just limited to men. There's your typical office hot head that yells a lot and demands things and is a general jerk. They insult everyone regardless of race, color, gender or creed. This cuts across gender lines, I've worked for both males and females in this category. Typically they target weakness or lash out when under stress or because they think this behaviour makes them look powerful. I wouldn't really classify them as sexual harassers because they aren't picking on you because of your sex or threatening you with rape. They just think everyone other than themselves are stupid and they point this out incessantly and in a loud voice.

Then there are your tried and true sexual harassers. I've worked with the dirty old man that like to grab a handful of a** on his way into the office. Typically they only target subordinants. And they don't think that they are being harassing, but they think they are being "funny" or "cute". They will do things like ask their female workers to make coffee or some stupid dig about their looks or "oh you silly little girl." They are annoying but mostly harmless and close to retirement.

Then there are the scary ones; the ones that you don't ever want to be alone with. Even the other male coworker don't want to be around this guys. Female coworkers are definitely targets as are subordinants. They will never target women at an upper level. I've encountered one of these and he was more than willing to try to feel me up (a non-feminine coworker) and to give my very feminine coworker back rubs even after we both told him not to touch us and to go away. I can't see how anyone would not classify this as sexual harassment. Brightstar this was NOT a case of miscontrued friendly behavior nor was it women giving out "mixed signals". When a men corners his married pregnant coworker in the parking lot late in the evening and refuses to let her get past him while he's saying how he wants to "break his piece off in her" this is clearly harassment! In fact if other coworkers hadn't come along, it might have escalated to assault. Sending porn to your female coworkers and asking if they'd like to try those positions out with you...yep harassment. They KNOW that they are crossing the line and causing problems, but for some reason they do it anyway. I don't know if it's because they think there is a chance (in hell) that this activity will get them laid or if it's a power trip or they are just one step away from being a sociopath. I have seen this behaviour several times, and yes it's always been a male perpetrator.

And then there are the harasser that just think they are wooing but are really office stalkers. Both men and women fall into this one. They think that pursuing their target is romantic. That sending personal emails and gifts and hanging around your desk is sweet. Even when told that there is no chance, they still pursue. They might show up at your house with flowers or a home cooked dinner. They can mad and act betrayed when they don't get what they want. After you turn them down they will gossip incessantly about you. They are normally physically harmless but can seriously damage your professional reputation. Their behaviour will also get you made fun of by your other coworkers. Dealing with them is difficult because they may seem so nice and non-threatening to other people, especially HR so it's hard to get them to stop. The only recourse I found in this situation was to find a better job. My husband had one of these types at his old job and somehow deflected her onto one of his friend's (now ex-friend). It's harassment but it's really hard to prove and get taken care of. It's even more so if you had a relationship with them. This is a very good reason why you should never sleep with/date your immediate coworkers!

Women don't need to do anything to snag a man? They don't need money to get a man? Well, there are whole freaking industries built on making money off of women looking to get a man. Fashion, make-up, salons, gyms, the entirety of the self help industry, cosmetic surgery, waxing, high heels shoes, lingerie, poledancing lessons, Jenny Freaking Craig, etc etc etc. 164 books on Amazon under "self help dating." Someone is making money there, and I'm pretty sure it's coming out of the pockets of women. No time and energy put into attracting a partner? Tell that to all the single girls huffing and puffing away on the stairmaster or the ones lined up to get their lips/butt/breasts/vagina enhanced.

Oh poor men forced to work for the man so they can hope to get laid! Those bitches that come into the office and flaunt themselves but then don't put out have it coming! The nerve of them to not offer themselves up to their struggling male coworkers who put in the extra long hours. They deserve to be groped and humiliated with sexual taunts and threats. I mean if they just let all of those poor office workers have their way with them there wouldn't be any problem, right? Instead they think they have the right to be treated as equals and to choose who they have sex with (or not have sex with). Stupid women, no wonder they cry so much about being harassed, they should just be happy for the attention. I mean any man in his right mind would be thrilled to have someone throwing themselves at him. Obviously women are f-ed in the head since they can't take a joke.

Yep, that paragraph pretty much sums up the typical raving lunatic that posts here in Broadsheet about how men NEVER GET LAID and ALL WOMEN DO ALL THE TIME.
