Comments on what you wear. What do you think of this?...HipChik

A guy friend I work with came to me with a story about his wife today. She had implants a few years back, and today wore a shirt that was a little snug and some man where she works made the comment, "Nice headlights" to her. She works in HR, by the way.

My guy friend calmed down his wife over the phone, and since she was new at the job, told her to keep it quiet, and document it, in case it happens again. he felt that since she was new, she shouldn't make waves.

Since she works in HR, she found from his file that the man was already under investigation for making other lewd comments to woman on the job.

Anyway, I told this story to my best friend at lunch and her comment was that the wife shouldn't be wearing unprofessional clothing, and that she was just asking for comments like that. Another co-worker said the same thing.

To top it off, someone on the other side of my cube who eavesdropped in on the entire conversation came over and told me, "If a woman is going to wear inappropriate clothing like that she is asking for it"....thanks buddy...I didn't even ask for your opinion.

Anyway, I am somewhat appalled by this reaction. My guy friend and his wife are somewhat conservative people, so I cannot imagine that the shirt was THAT revealing. To me, whatever you are wearing doesn't give someone a right to make lewd comments.

Date: 2/10/2005 12:39:00 PM  From Authorid: 62675    It is still sexual harrassment. Isn't it rape if you wear suggestive clothes and you get attacked? Was it her fault for wearing that?? Absolutly not even though some use that for their defense which is sick!  
Date: 2/10/2005 12:43:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 62876    I agree MsPriss...unless I wear a shirt that has a suggestion box on it....I don't want comments...LMAO!  
Date: 2/10/2005 12:46:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 62876    I agree Sunni...there is thinking before you speak. And, I am not talking about Erin Brockovich, here. Even though she got implants, they are pretty conservative people.  
Date: 2/10/2005 12:48:00 PM  From Authorid: 62146    if you wear sexauly suggestive clouthing you tend to get comments like that, It seems a bit ahrd to define sexaul harrasment these days some peopel would consider what happened to her sexaul harrasment, others would not. I dunno it really depends on the indvidaul really, by law it dose classifi by sexaul harrasment. even though men do not really have a right to harrase women even if they are nude it is still a good idea not to try and atract to much attnetion by wearing tiny clouth though somtimes because it can jsut give men the wrong Idea.  
Date: 2/10/2005 12:49:00 PM  From Authorid: 62146    what she was wearing was not really that bad though in my opinyion.  
Date: 2/10/2005 1:04:00 PM  From Authorid: 2030    Why do women get implants? To give plastic surgeons something to do? To fill out that oversized bra they bought on a clearance sale and can't return? To provide shade for their belly button? Better aerodynamics when roller blading?  
Date: 2/10/2005 1:07:00 PM  From Authorid: 2030    All that being said any guy with common sense knows you don't go around to women at work say things like "Nice headlights", even if they poke you in the eye.  
Date: 2/10/2005 1:20:00 PM  From Authorid: 34912    she should have peppered sprayed him... "Nice Headli...aaaahhhh!!!!!!!"  
Date: 2/10/2005 1:21:00 PM  From Authorid: 29262    I don't think anyone should say rude things like that. People do have the right to wear clothing like that. So let's say tomorrow I go out in shows the very bottom of my stomach. That doesn't mean that a guy can come up to me and say anything to me.  
Date: 2/10/2005 1:22:00 PM  From Authorid: 35720    If someone makes a comment about what I wear, I shrug it off.. it has ceased to bother me.  
Date: 2/10/2005 1:28:00 PM  From Authorid: 62798    I am also appalled. THere is noe excuse for that. If a man wore tight pants, women would not say "Nice package"..why should they be allowed to degrade anyone  
Date: 2/10/2005 1:54:00 PM  From Authorid: 13428    lol I go to a very old fashioned church where most of the women wear dresses below the knee. I wear mine a couple or so inches above the knee and to some people i am a Jezebel. I just happen to think I am blessed with okay legs and feel i should not hide them. If someone says something about it I just say thanks and go on my way laughing.  
Date: 2/10/2005 2:17:00 PM  From Authorid: 52155    you women are such pervs. A guy says "Nice headlights" and automatically you think he is referring to apart of you body and not your car... Could your egos possibly get any bigger???  
Date: 2/10/2005 2:37:00 PM  From Authorid: 10245    I've always wondered that myself, BCAR. Good follow up   
Date: 2/10/2005 3:06:00 PM  From Authorid: 20956    Well working in HR she should know the 'rules/laws' about this kind of thing. anyway, it is illegal and she can report him but if she is new to the job she may not want to stir up trouble. I'd consider sending the guy an email telling him what he said was inappropriate and made her feel unfortable, that she wouldnt act this time but if it happens again she'll be advising her boss or the appropriate person. Make sure she prints out the sent email (and his reply if he does) for evidence if something should happen in the future  
Date: 2/10/2005 3:51:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 62876    I'M BACK!!!  
Date: 2/10/2005 3:53:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 62876    BCAR - everyone knows that implants make you smarter. LOL!  
Date: 2/10/2005 3:56:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 62876    I would thank everyone for their comments, but I don't know how to express gratitude, due to the size of my egos.  
Date: 2/10/2005 4:41:00 PM  From Authorid: 42945    LOL @ Eddo...behave!!!! lol!! no seriously, no one whether male or female has the right to discuss any part of the human anatomy with lewd comments like that, even if one thinks of it, they should keep their comments to themselves....hugs  
Date: 2/10/2005 5:19:00 PM  From Authorid: 62915    I think this comment would only be OK if they were friends or done in a nonsexual manner ya know. like as a joke. however this was not the case. The comments about that it was her fault disgust and sicken me. it is sexual harrassment! Even if she went to work with a seethrough top on and a bra it still gives no one the right to make sexual comments like that towards her. I mean if he was really impressed there were otherways to express it you know? Geeze I'd say she should confront the guy and ask him not to make comments. If he still continues then make a formal ccomplaint. Ghost-chick  
Date: 2/10/2005 5:22:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 62876    Hey GC...the wife didn't even know him at all...she is a new employee in their HR dept. I have male co-workers and we talk to each other like that all the time. It is fun and silly, and none of us mean anything by it. We are careful no one else hears our silly fun, though.  
Date: 2/10/2005 5:43:00 PM  From Authorid: 60348    I don't think it matters so much what the person is wearing. People shouldn't be looking at her like that, and should keep his comments to himself.  
Date: 2/10/2005 9:13:00 PM  From Authorid: 16916    I am sorry, but I agree with your friend and the others. First she has implants and second, she was wearing revealing clothing..if you ask me, she wanted that kind of attention if she got implants in the first place. She should take it as a compliment and leave it at that.  
Date: 8/3/2005 5:11:00 PM  From Authorid: 11341    Sounds to me like if she got the implants she wants the attention that goes with them. However, this man is a pig and shouldnt saw something like that to a woman he works with! At least if it were in a bar she could have gotten nasty back.
