Lila is right.It isn’t sexual harrassment to her.Why should she have to comform to the thinking of others.Now,say,a gay women said these things to her and she found offense with the comments,Lila could be the one hit with sexual harrassment because she treating this gay women differently than she did everyone else..reverse sexual discrimination,I think it is called.
If a lesbian started coming on to Lila and she rejected the advances, it would be sexual harassment if the woman refused to take no for an answer, the same as if a man hit on her who she rejected and he refused to take no for an answer. I haven’t seen these guys or Mr. Payne actually suggest going to bed with her, they are making comments on her appearance. That’s been the extent of any supposed “sexual harassment.”
Ironically, Betty Friedan, via her book “The Feminine Mystique”, is probably responsible more than anyone for releasing millions of women from their 1950’s home-bound cocoons into the world of work.

It’s not really sexual harrassment in Lila’s case since she welcomes the comments. Not every woman would.

You’re not being harrassed unless you recieve it as harrassement…other than that, they’re compliments.

“It isn’t sexual harrassment to her.”
“You’re not being harrassed unless you recieve it as harrassement.”
Do the three of you work as legal analysts for Fox News?

no cheeseburger, if you read the definition of sexual harassment it is the unwanted comments or touching by someone
if your place of employment has ever given discrimination or sexual harassment lectures which are required by law then you must have missed them

Agreed - Lila isn’t being harrased since she LIKES the comments!
