At that point, sexuality is being unnecessarily applied to professional relationships.
We didn't build this.

And it is unfortunate, but it's understandable that men don't want their careers and lives ruined.

Amazing how SO many men are able to go to work every day without "ruining their lives and careers."

How many women go to work without being sexually assaulted?

Are women who take steps to avoid being sexually assaulted at work acting dumb?

"Only women have the right to be prudent when looking after their welfare" is what I'm reading in this thread.

Are you typing this from a work computer right now, cowering in fear of false accusation under your desk?

Or are you just fine, employed with no one really harming you, flinging out accusations based on hearsay and very limited life experience?

Should not be a problem. Let's minimize unnecessary contact for all.
