Nothing wrong at approaching somone you like, introducing yourself and asking them out.

One tip.... don't use the words sexual harassment in the first sentance when meeting somone....

[-] dexa_scantron@lemmy.world 78 points 1 year ago

It's not awesome to ask someone out when they're working, but it's not harassment unless it's repeated.

[-] wellee@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

Right, and while at work hahaha. Could you go up to anyone who looks less receptive? What is this comic, just ragebait?

[-] Psionicsickness@reddthat.com 155 points 1 year ago

I mean, no, it isn’t. It is if she says no and you keep at it.

Simply asking someone for their number is not harassment.

Repeatedly asking for someone’s number after being told no is.

There isn’t any nuance to this situation.

Telling someone they're beautiful when they think you're gross is creepy/harassment.

[-] dfc09@lemmy.world 68 points 1 year ago

"when they think you're gross"

How can I know if someone thinks I'm gross if I haven't spoken to them yet? I should just assume I'm gross, always?

That's pretty warped.

[-] Signtist@lemm.ee 15 points 1 year ago

Correct, but you won't know if they think you're gross until you talk to them. If you see that they think you're gross, you stop. It's harassment when you see that they think you're gross but continue talking to them anyway, because at that point you know they aren't going to respond well to you, and you're just continuing on to spite them.

Congrats, you've won the 'Dumbest person of the Week' award.

[-] RealFknNito@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

I hope you just have a feminine sounding name and you're not a real life woman with this opinion.

Quiet, incel.

[-] Soulg@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

No, it isn't.

If there was a frame of her saying no, but then he doesn't leave her alone, then sure.

Probably the most pathetic cartoon I've ever been shown. Author needs real world experiences.

[-] Slovene@feddit.nl 53 points 1 year ago

Yeah, it seems as if it was created by a "nice guy" incel. I don't get it.

[-] stillitcomes@lemm.ee 12 points 1 year ago

Did not get that impression at all. To me it seems like basically the same thing as the "What have you done, Billy?" and "dumbest man alive" memes. Something relatably annoying followed by a hyperbolic "haha if only" response.

Not following. We're laughing at the comic, right? It's a funny situation.

Or is the author some creep?

[-] excitingburp@lemmy.world 36 points 1 year ago

Harassment is continuing once being told "no." There are a few frames missing from that comic for it to count as harassment.

[-] NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

It would seem the author is conflating sexual harassment with random flirting with women. It also sends the message that the author thinks it should be okay to flirt with random women as they go about their day/job, which is inappropriate, creepy, and annoying. He should probably try treating women like humans and develop a healthier sense of boundaries. He might have better luck.

Unless I'm missing an entire frame, this seems extremely unreasonable, likely illegal, even if that guy is a douche.

[-] Thteven@lemmy.world 44 points 1 year ago

She's a cop, you think they need a legit reason to arrest someone?

[-] RealFknNito@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

Sigh. I'll go get the bootlicker insult ready.

I mean... maybe don't get 2.5 inches away from her face while rubbing your chest up against her shoulder?

Probably best not to club her on the head and drag her back to your cave either - at least, not without prior consent :-P.

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 19 points 1 year ago

I smiled at her by the photocopier. Now I'm facing chemical castration.

I like my version better.

[-] thorbot@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Maybe don’t have your erect penis pressing against them when you ask?
