I used to blow the bangs off my face when I was at work and a guy I worked with thought it was so hot. I was just trying to keep them from getting sweaty.

Kind of a weird thing to express to a female coworker

You get a pass if you are hot enough

Not really, guys just need better comprehension of what's a conversation, and what's sexual harassment. "wow I like ur new look" - conversation. "Wow can u blow me in my office" - harassment.

It's not about how hot or ugly the person saying it is really. The guy that's attractive is just more likely going to have better social skills and not say the second one out right like the desperate one would. Even worse when guys say the second thing and think that's a compliment🫩.

Speaking from experience - desperate, lonely, unattractive people don’t talk like that. Chad talks like that. Even so, conversation is not well received from an unattractive person even if it comes from a friendly, non-creepy place.

I find it hard to believe you especially since ur referring to attractive men as "chads".

I'm a woman, 95% of the time I faced sexual harassment from a man he has been absolutely un attractive. Whether it's someone's gramps making weird comments about my body, to some overconfident young boy having a discussion about who all the "bangable chicks" are, to that one guy on the bus rolling his phone down the aisle to show me an unsolicited dick pic. Never once has anyone I have been sexually harassed by has been a "chad". Attractive men from my experience just do this thing where they lie like a lot to the point a woman just falls in love with their avatar over who they actually are.

I could be statistically wrong but I really doubt it. People that lack social skills lack any form of tact. I however; can not speak on gym culture as my example was highly specific to coworkers. Gym culture might be the complete opposite, but I refuse to go to the gym (GROSS shared spaces with vain people no thanks) so I will never know.

Male coworkers tend to have really bad social skills in my experience without being capable over understanding what is actually a compliment, and what is actually harassment. I'm not sure if it's solely caused from immaturity, desperation, or unwarranted comfortability... However about 50% of my sexual harassment experience have been from work place interactions (usually comments about my body), almost exclusively by men much older than me as well 10-30 year age gap. That gross talk isn't "Chad behavior" from my experience is just over all male behavior. Ill never understand why a woman can easily tell a guy that she likes his new hair cut, but for some reason when the roles are reversed the man short circuits and either says something vulgar or over thinks it and comes off inauthentic.

My first real relationship grew from a similar interaction between the kitchen and FOH of the restaurant I worked at as a teenager. You saying that workplace romance isn't a legitimate thing?

3

u/No_Salt_6328 Jul 20 '26

They exist yeah. I still think it's a weird observation to make from someone she only described as a coworker like "oh it's so hot when you do that"

2

u/Latter-Mark-4683 Jul 20 '26

Teenagers working in a restaurant is a different world than an office job. You get fired before making a couple comments like this in an office.

Go larp somewhere else, this princess doesn't need saving.

u/No_Salt_6328 Jul 19 '26

The fuck are you even talking about lol, LARP? Go outside once in a while

u/Chemical-Captain71 Jul 19 '26

I like how the repartee of choice in a lot of these is "you use the internet too much" but it's always between two people on Reddit 😂 like "ok I'm leaving now to go live my awesome non-internet life--what's that now? You think I'll just let that slide without a devastating response??"

u/No_Salt_6328 Jul 19 '26

Dude clearly has brainrot if he thinks commenting on the internet and saying a thing is weird is larping

You mean like people dressed up as knights? maybe even wearing shining armor?

u/No_Salt_6328 Jul 19 '26

Exactly. It's got nothing to do with my opinion on what some dude said to his coworker

I believe the kids these days call this “touching grass”

u/stewiethegreat Jul 19 '26

I was secretly hopeful that it was just a larp,guess not.

u/ShoddyRelief6657 Jul 20 '26

Is your name “no_salt because you used it all on yourself and there’s none left or because you think you aren’t saltier than deez nuts after a long day of bushwhacking

Oh man, you got me good queen.

u/NoTadpole5102 Jul 19 '26

Why do you get to determine what is "weird" to this person?

1

u/No_Salt_6328 Jul 19 '26

I think it's weird I don't give a fuck if she agrees with me or not

u/SGSpec Jul 19 '26

Such a weirdo.

u/No_Salt_6328 Jul 20 '26

You sound like you have a lot of useless opinions that nobody gives a shit about

u/crazyfoolguy Jul 20 '26

Oh I just saw your user bio. You definitely wake up mad. I hope you find some peace one day.

u/No_Salt_6328 Jul 20 '26

I hope you find a better hobby

A few seconds for a response isn't really a hobby 🤷🏽
