Since all the work harassment problems we have been seeing come from women, I wonder if you are kinda safe if you let women invite you out instead of you taking the initiative? Or is that still dicey?

I haven't entertained dating people from the workplace since I stopped having high school/college retail and food service gigs. It's always been taboo where I've been, and I seen no upside.

Never had and never will. I strictly separate work from my private life.

I'm at work to work, not to get a date.

Its usually best idea not to anymore. You dont want to end up in trouble for noticing someone changed their hair or is wearing something nice.

Yes. The good thing about work is you can make it a slow process without actually dating before deciding if you want to date them because you see them every day.

There is a good chance I’m gonna see someone get fired for this exact thing in the next few days. Married dude with a coworker with an angry ex. Scary for everyone. Dammit don’t do it, it’s not worth it.

I did it when I was young. Even went to the prom with him. But now at my job there really isnt any men in my age bracket.
