Nifty article on harassment law. Or is it harrassment? I can never remember. Anyway, after reading the article, I wondered about something. Women are supposed to be equal to men in the eyes of the law, except in cases involving gender-specific physical attributes. Well I don't know of any men that would ever sue for overhearing sexual comments, yet women do it all the time. Why is it that women are allowed to make a lot of money by being offended by something that is not offensive to men? That's not equal, and this doesn't involve physical attributes, it involves feelings. Maybe women should stop being so offended at people being people?
I love the last part of the article, taken from South Park. Harassment law tells us what we can and cannot say at work. Controlling speech is fascism.
