I still blame Canada for Nelly Furtado becoming a hit in the states, but not Treble Charger.

Jarmak posted:Personally I think the problem is considering the former not a big deal but the watering down effect is exactly my objection to calling this sexual assault. I think that's a fair point, and unfortunately it seems we only have two linguistic categories to place sexual misconduct into. But at the same time you've got celebrities stating that viewership of leaked nude photos is sexual assault; clearly public sentiment is against you on this one, although I'm not saying you're wrong.

psydude posted:Honestly? Because the term has a very broad definition that encompasses everything from "coworker makes awkward sex jokes around colleagues in the break room" to apparently exposing someone else's genitalia to a large group of people. So the term is pretty watered down in most people's minds given that the former situation constitutes the vast majority of examples, thus not doing a great job of portraying the seriousness of the offense. You're the lawyer here, but I've gotta believe the pantsing situation would be a slam dunk in a workplace harassment lawsuit. I think you're conflating harassment and assault. The awkward sex jokes and pantsing fall into the bounds of the former, sexual assault is more narrow. Goes without saying, both are bad. But one is less bad.

AreWeDrunkYet posted:I think you're conflating harassment and assault. The awkward sex jokes and pantsing fall into the bounds of the former, sexual assault is more narrow. Jarmak's point is that both fall under the legal definition of sexual harassment, while other people argued pantsing constitutes a form of sexual assault. I'm not conflating them, just stating that people want to classify it more severely (as assault) because the term "sexual harassment" doesn't sound serious enough to most people, given that it's a broad term that encompasses a lot of different bad behavior. e: v Yeah that.

To most people "sexual harassment" is a PC term for catcalling. Because people are horrible idiots.

I pantsed a friend in front of a ton of people one time. Just his pants not his underwear. We're not friends anymore for many more reasons than that. He's a piece of poo poo and I'm glad I did it.

I had this as an edit but by the time I figured out the words that expressed what I wanted to say the thread had moved enough that it should have been a new post: I apologize for being unnecessarily abrasive to a few of you (though a few others deserved it). I need to take a break from discussing this topic because it's bringing me to bad places. I understand that even some of you who I legitimately think are being assholes are doing so with good intentions and from a position that at it's core I agree with.

I suppose now's not a good time to bring up a story that a Senator is asking "Hey, maybe rape and incest is a good thing. Ever think about that?" https://mobile.twitter.com/TPM/status/1161689441951526913

I got mixed up about him being a Rep. Glad at least he isn't a Senator. We definitely aren't wrong about him being a garbage filled rear end in a top hat though.

I didn't begin to "stand up for myself" until I was around 18 or so - and I'll save you the long story between getting bullied from age 10 to not ever employing violence until I punched my first Neonazi in the face at age 20 - but pantsing me has been the single thing that has earned anyone a punch to the face since before the time I had the courage to fight back against being bullied. I recall the first of two times it happened until this day, and there is only one other occasion in my life that I recall to feel more dehumanized or robbed of my dignity than that. That said, I understand that it is not on the level of sexual assault while still being classified as sexual harassment, so I don't get at all how the notion of it being handwaved away is even a thing, especially if you're on a position of power over the person you're deciding to "pants". Lastly...what a dumb loving verb you have for that.
