Nothing Is True User ID: 500937 United Kingdom 02/14/2010 07:03 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | When I pass by a random person and we're around each other a while I'll just nonchalantly say high, good morning, or what have you. With most women I have met they will ignore you big time. I dont even have an agenda with 90% of them, just being polite and neighborly. But they will ignore a polite high, hello, good morning, and etc. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 885795It isn't not that they ignore that you don't work with ignore you not. Everything is permitted.. |

Goodbye, halcyon days... There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory mentioned, which states that this has already happened. |

I just hated him. Finally, he cornered me at the copy machine and felt up my blouse while saying "hi". Yes, he was literally saying, "hi" when he did this stuff. This was before the Clarance Thomas/Anita Hill hearings, and sexual harrassment wasn't taken seriosuly yet. I just walked over to my desk, grabbed my things and left. They figured it out, fired the asshole, and asked me to come back. Heart of the heroes, ride.

Sandi_T User ID: 873093 United States 02/14/2010 07:50 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Because you have been preceded that day by 50 other guys who said, "Hello," and when she smiled back politely and said, "Hello," they stopped and tried to get her to suck him off right then and there. And to be honest, that's only a SMALL exaggeration. There's a post on here about a guy who is all pissed off because women should "give men a sign" that she is interested in him by being polite and nice to him... So what? So that gives you an understanding of what men think if we're polite and nice to them. "She wants to FUCK ME SO BAD!!! YEAH!!!!" That is why. Bottom line. Because when a woman IS polite and friendly, it's open field to hit on her and sexually harass her. Guys like you get caught in the crossfire. I'm really sorry for that, but please don't blame women entirely for it. It's hard to retain that niceness and politeness in the face of some of the nasty, crass, bastard things that guys do the moment you ARE courteous and friendly towards them. When I was young, I was fairly attractive. Slightly above average. As a result, most of the time when I was kind and polite and friendly towards guys, I got literally and actively STALKED. So don't take it personal. They don't know you. You could be saying 'hi,' or you could be scoping her out for "You want to FUCK ME, don't you!!!"
