In reply to the discussion: Six tips for men about "Compliments" [View all]doc03
(35,325 posts)41. From the op I read if you would comment on how a women's clothing looks
or how it matches her beautiful blue eyes it would be sexual harassment unless she was your wife or partner as in #6.
There are times where a women would make a double entendre joke and a guy can get accused of sexual harassment
when he responds in that fashion. I was being sarcastic about both I wasn't offended but according to the op if I would have said the same to a women it would be considered harassment. I have ask a couple friends if they would be offended if a guy said he liked their
hair or something and they said of course not and things are getting ridiculous anymore.
