To think there are some men who will make sexually inappropriate comments in any situation?

I’m currently volunteering for the NHS. I spend a few hours each day at my local doctors’ surgery manning the door so that people can’t enter all at once. I have to make them queue outside, and direct them to the pharmacy/nurses/doctors’ offices, etc, so that we don’t have loads of people crowding round the reception. I’m really enjoying it, and will continue to do this as long as the schools are closed (usually a teacher)

I was on duty this morning, and as a man was leaving after using the pharmacy, he commented loudly to me, “You should be wearing little shorts stood out here, then we could look at your legs while we wait!”

Sad I mean, really? Even in the case of a national emergency, do we really still have to put up with this shit on the reg? Can’t they have a day off from making stupid sexually-based remarks whilst we get on with more important things?

Oh yes so many women I know remark on how nice men look, we stand too close when it’s not necessary, tell them how we like their clothes they need to know, stare at their crutch when they are taking to us, beep at them it makes their day, ask them to smile if they look unhappy as being in our presence obviously makes their day better so why not show it, push up against them on a packed tube for a quick bit of fun, insist that we buy them a drink even if they say no obviously they playing hard to get and sometimes we have to put them in their place when they don’t respond kindly

Yes that’s right women can be just as bad Hmm
