When?
 

Will a man come forward and say a powerful woman said or did something
that "made him feel uncomfortable".
That seems to be the bar now.
As a guy who spent the best part of the first year of IBM working in
the female world of the keypunch room, I can say they do have a way of
making you feel uncomfortable and that is usually intentional.
I didn't take it seriously and when they figured out they were not
getting a rise out of me it got a lot better but I wasn't a snow flake
either.

I was thinking of calling the Washington Post yesterday after some female was rubbing my leg. And I
don't mean a casual 'walk-by', but real rubbing! This was blatant as hell!

But then I thought maybe physical therapists had a dispensation from the Pope or something which
allowed them to take such advances.

Wimmins in the post office and the supermarket are always pinching my
tush and making suggestive invitations. Sadly, I always wake up before
I'm able to to take them up on it.

This actually did happen to me once in the post office some years ago.
Well, she did ask me to lunch. :)

Are you sure she wasn't just checking to see if you were really the Stay
Puff Marshmallow Man?

No rise? Viagra might help.

There is a massage chain under investigation as we speak.

I doubt that was the "rise" they were looking for. They were just
trying to embarrass the new guy saying the most outrageous stuff you
can imagine.
If I used the standards we are using now, I could have a case that
they were creating a hostile work environment. Fortunately I had a
good sense of humor about it. It helped a lot that I could actually
fix keypunches.
