Most PEOPLE just don't want to deal with annoyances of that kind.

Sexist jokes increase gender tensions....adults should be able to work with other adults but when sex enters into it there's a problem...and it doesn't matter which sex starts it.


WHO decides what a traditional job is? You?!!!LOL!

In history there were "traditional" jobs and women got screwed financially..., women can do whatever job they want and I hope that really bothers you.

You should sue. Equal treatment right?

They would not tolerate it going the other way.

That's not advice , it's what I wonder about. Didn't think YOU would have an answer to it.
Hey, you missed my misspell, maybe your just being nice today.....

AHHH, you inserted a certain group of people which wasn't nice..........Lib's/Dem's/Repub's can be just as rude. I worked once a month for a Democrat and she didn't know if I was religious or my party affiliation for 3 yrs. Every time I worked she would bring up how the Repubs had messed up the world, give me a break...........
that was most of her talking points in the office for 2 1/2 hrs.

For the most part I think it's in ones genes!!

Some people are just like bugging people, they don't need to be a religious, non-religious or Party affiliation some people thrive on controversy........
you kind of remind me of one of those people, sure this is a good enough answer.........

Annoyances referring to the opposite sex and white knights.

When there's white knights in higher positions in the workplace, it does lead to gender integration, misandry, and gender tensions. No point in debating through a brick wall.

Since I make it a point not to have a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent, perhaps I should put you on my ignore list.

Another fine example of a completely failed attempt at humor.

That might have been funny in the fourth grade.

Technically yes... its only considered sexual harassment if you tell them to stop and they didn't... do you happen to have their phone numbers?

Is it that you oppose sexual harassment laws or that you support the anti-male double standards which typically accompany sexual harassment policies?

The only interesting thing I see is how big of a sissy you are.

Were their comments directed at you personally? If not, plug your ears, grow a pair, attempt to become an adult, and carry on with what you were doing prior to hearing something not intended to offend you.

Hmmmmmmm......that is actually a quote attributed to Churchill.
So much for your assertion of 4th grade humor.
You must not read much, poor you.
