The plant that I work at has a 60/40 ratio of women to men. The name of the game there is cold and professional. If you veer from that path for even a split second, you're looking at termination at best, or a lawsuit at worst. Yeah, it's that bad anymore. If the work environment has become so hostile to men, to the point that we can't even communicate with female co-workers without running the risk of being sued into oblivion, over some perceived slight, then you might as well pack it up and go home.

I can’t even fathom working in a place like that. Like I said, I work for my husband of over 50 years. I threaten him from time to time with sexual harassment, but he knows I’m joking. I figure I am there to keep him from making untoward remarks. I’ve probably saved his bacon a couple of times.

I don’t know what Cain said, or did; but if making a gesture describing the height of his wife is all that it was, this whole thing is stupid. Geez. They are going to get me the next time I say “You’re really tall,” to a man!!

Lady boss calls one of the guys she supervises into her teeny tiny office for a business meeting, a room so small that everyone has to get up and leave one at a time, and later complains that the guy seemed to be crowding her....
