I am wondering if we are the same age.
Politics has mudded up the difference between sexual harassment and a simple compliment. I remember in the early 80s at work we got a memo telling us what we could say to one another. A man could say I like your sweater, but he couldn't say "you look great in that sweater". I would take the latter as a compliment not harassment. However, I think men are now afraid to say anything to us for fear of their job.
I agree that those who used to protect us are now scared to intervene. Do you blame them?
