Staring is sexual harassment

[Machismo]

Sure, it can be in conjunction with other types of behavior that are considered harassment.

The example you cited was repeated instances and occurred after other forms of harassment had already occurred.

You won't find any cases of a person staring at someone being considered harassment because staring at someone is not harassment.

Which shows that staring, in certain circumstances can, and has been deemed to be harassment. Do I agree with it? No. However, that is what happened.

This is what happens when you started rewarding people for feeling like victims. People want to be praised, so they'll go for the lowest hanging fruit. Pretending to be a victim of everything.

How fucking stupid.

I wish being a whiny bitch victim was painful.

This thread is the perfect example!

Holy whiteknight. If you dress hot and show the goods people will stare
Don't like it wear your stripper outfits in private

So...men aren't in control of their own actions? That sounds like a much more serious problem than you're treating it as.

Well, you certainly sound like you're in constant pain, so...

Really? You're comparing how men choose to position their eyes in public to people cat-calling children? Brilliant!

Given that it's the exact same people doing both...

True self-awareness is the realization that some random person you'll never know being "offended" over something as trivial as being stared at is irrelevant.

Let's try a thought experiment. How would you feel if a man (or a transwoman, because, let's face it, you're likely the complete package here) was just LEERING at your junk. Like...just INTENSELY focused on it. For hours. How would that make you feel?

I've eye fucked a lot of women without their consent. Does that make me a rapist?

No, but your raping women certainly does.

[dvaz]

I can stare at some hoe and be disgusted on how trashy she looks. Does that mean i'm sexually harassing her?

Personally, I'd be like meh. I don't care.

Flattered, uncomfortable, then after an hour back to uncomfortably flattered as I wonder how my junk could be so utterly fascinating for so long, then extremely uncomfortable as I consider that they haven't moved or blinked in 6 hours, they're probably dead.

I've never raped a woman unless you think masturbating is rape.

Hyperbole. Also, [citation needed].

If it was "manly" man, I'd think he was jealous. But it wouldn't bother me. And contrary your presumptions, if it was a trans-woman and she was hot, I'd ask her out. I'm good with anyone that looks good in a skirt. /shrug And you're still missing the point. What some random person you don't know "feels" because you're looking at them is irrelevant. Being subjected to scrutiny, even prolonged scrutiny, is part of being in public. Don't like it? Stay the fuck home.

Given the stupidity of his arguments, if you were watching porn and masturbating, you were "sexually harassing" the actors by staring at them. You were also exposing yourself to them which means you're a predator and should be on a list!

Here you are.

N...no. No it isn't.

Staring...in conjunction with other acts.

Staring in and of itself is not harassment. It became harassment because it followed unwanted advances, inappropriate language, and was occurring on a regular basis.

What you're citing as an example for why staring is harassment is a false equivalency.

[Mistame]

Here you are.

I asked for proof that the same people you claim are "cat-calling children" are the same people "eye raping" people by staring at them. Not a link to an anecdotal thread about people eyeballing young adults. Especially considering the source. Maybe read better?

N...no. No it isn't.

Actually, it is. Try again.

No, it's showing that it can be considered harassment in certain circumstances. I didn't make the ruling, so if you have a problem with the ruling, take it up with the courts.

[rhackin]

How many times do you people have to ask why there isn't a White History Month before you realize that you're not clever?

You are missing the point. Completely.

I have reported you to the UN, Anita Sarkesian, Mattress College Girl, and The Beta Male Cuckery Knights!

That's not what it's showing.

Did you even read the ruling? It is completely unrelated to a case of staring.

Did you do that all alone or did you need someone to do the writing for you?
