I have been in the workforce with men for 30 years— nothing. Not so much as a glance. Am I that ugly and unappealing? I guess so.

Hardly. Gentlemen notice ladies, but do so with care, so as to remain gentlemen. From your screen name, you are a mother, so it is likely that you exuded a satisfaction with your life outside of work that helped these gentlemen remain gentlemen (and thereby escaping notice).

I have worked with women for nearing 30 years, and yet have never acted boorish. Being a gentleman at work certainly has helped me with my 28 year marriage. (Marrying a saint helped, too - she has to put up with ME! LOL)

Yes, I have been happily married for a long time, so maybe that is part of it, as you say. It just seems to be getting ridiculous with women everywhere coming out of the woodwork to say how they are constantly ‘harassed’ (i.e. asked out or complimented) when I have never experienced or even witnessed such a thing. I mean do we live in entirely different worlds? Where do all these ‘boorish predatory men come from that women seemingly cannot escape them? I don’t mean to diminish true sexual assault or harassment, but it seems to be getting silly with the accusations.
