      I'm older now so it's less of an issue. Make of that what you will.

      Did feel sorry for a girl recently getting a creepy shoulder-massage by the guy who signs her timesheets. Ugh.

      Have seen young male grads being harassed by older female managers also. One of them used to hire on the basis of looks. It did explain why her team were all tall good-looking young men. This was a few years ago though.
      Being a lady of a certain age, when do you think attitudes started changing and why?

        You're an angry incel. I'm wondering when this happened. It's worrying.

          I'm not sure they did change, to be honest. Women are starting to speak up about everyday stuff they just used to feel obliged to keep quiet about. It's not the trivial little things like door opening - unless you have experienced this?

          There are only a few of things to 'not do', if you like...


          > Any kind of patting or unsolicited shoulder massaging
          > The weird staring thing. Not just making eye contact, but the aggressive prolonged intense stuff. Veeerrry disconcerting.
          > Jokes about rape. Yes, this happens.

          Or has anyone really complained about anything trivial, would be interested to know if so, as that would mean that attitudes have indeed changed?

            It happened after a young girl complained to HR that he gave her a neck massage before signing her timesheet
            I am what I drink, and I'm a bitter man

              Let's hope Barry doesn't find out.

                    There were stories at a certain telco about someone doing just that. Before my time, so no idea who.
