When To Expect Sexual Harassment
A woman is upset by what she is calling sexual harassment after she dressed in a racy costume for a comic book and fantasy gathering.She wore the following outfit:
She said men were "ogling her breasts." She also said that during interviews that fans were more interested in her cup size. Here is the link: LinkLadies: If you were wearing that outfit, would you expect men to ogle your breasts?

Yes. But I wouldn't mind.
Why would a woman wear something like that if they didn't want men to notice? Geeez
I wouldn't sexually harass her, I probably wouldn't even be able to talk. daaamn.
I'd feel offended if I was wearing that and they wouldn't look at my breasts :P lol
yes, they are afterall just men
But, of course. Forget just men..women would be doing the ogling as well. lol
Yes, and she should know people would look. It's if they try to touch that would be inappropriate.
If I was wearing that, I'd expect everyone to ogle my breasts.
I hate when people like her trivialize sexual harassment. If my tits were threatening to pop out of my top, everyone would go blind out of fear and/or hysteria so I am pretty sure I wouldn't get ogled.
It wasn't sexual harrassment. She's just sensitive.
what did she expect was going to happen?
Ugh,what an idiot. Of course someone is going to 'ogle her breasts'. She dresses like that, with her boobs practically to her chin and she gets MAD when men look?
What a stupid b*tch....Nothing new. Same old double standard. A woman can dress like a hooker and scream "pervert" when some guy looks at her boobs or her dress up to her crack, she can walk like that through a dimly lit alley and wonder why she gets raped, and of course it is all his fault. She can dress like that to work and then file "sexual harrassment" complaints against all the males co-workers if she thinks they are "checking her out". They don't even have to touch or leer or even get caught getting an eyeful. Even if she "feels uncomfortable", they are guilty until proven innocent. Yet I hear, "can you move this box for me, or can you get that off the high shelf" or "ugh, I can't take the trash out, I can't lift the can over the dumpster" or on and on. And that is not sexist at all. This kind of behavior shows no respect for men at all. It is all about "me, me, me" and is incredibly selfish. You want respect? Show some to others, and yourself...
If you got it flaunt it so to speak,though be prepared to go with the consequences..what with men being men they will ogle and gloat and drool some even get a bit touchy-feely so best be warned when provoking such things.
I think we're missing the point what on earth is she doing at a comic book and fantasy gathering? Also at said gathering she was most likely the most attractive thing in a 1 mile radius she would have been stared at even if she was covered head to toe.
I'll keep it in mind that, if a guy wears super, super tight pants, where his junk is super noticeable, that it's then okay for me to go up and question him about his penis!
After all, he would apprently be "asking for it".
Yes, I would expect people to look, if I was wearing something like that. Those type of outfits will draw attention. Heck, even I would check the girl out! lol That said, I don't have to turn into a sleaze over it and ask inappropriate questions. I don't feel that ANYONE in this situation is completely blameless.
I saw a girl, who looked like she was either a stripper or a prostitute (we were at a truck stop). I looked, my husband looked, another guy looked... I don't feel that ANY of us would be excused for makng crude comments, to her, just based on how she's dressed.
But, maybe that's just me. Spare me the whole "they're just men, of course they'll look". Yeah, obviously... but they can control themselves and how they respond to what they see. After all, many men seem to know how to do that. So why can't the others figure it out? Yeah.
Just my two cents...
Agree 100% with Megabyyte!
Just looking at her chest, when it's exposed like that, isn't sexual harassment in my mind. The questions about her cup size, though, were pretty inappropriate considering her reason for being there wasn't to talk about her boobs. I assume she is dressed as some comic-book or movie character I'm unfamiliar with, so I would think the questions should have been related to her character and her experiences related to that and comic-book conventions. Anybody with half a brain ought to be able to put that together, but then you have those who see exposed cleavage as an invitation to sex and a declaration of low self-esteem and they act accordingly towards her. It's stereotyping, and you can blame her all you want for whatever happens to her, but anybody that makes those assumptions is guilty of stereotyping so they aren't blameless, either.
What @Megabyyte said!
Well said there @Megabyyte ! Errr.. well ye.. Got nothing to add. If you want no comments, don't wear something as showing as that.
She's dressing like she wants attention and then gets it and complains ?
Minju, if the guys can't keep their eyes off the prize, well, that's the male equation for ya. Φ ≡
@Megabyyte - I was about to comment but what you said was perfect. Can't add to that! :)
Getting looked at and receiving sexual comments can be expected....get over it. Being touched or persistently followed around & rudely spoken to by an individual would be worth getting upset about.
