    This is straight up verbal sexual harassment. Why is this being upvoted?

    It breaks Rule 5:

    No content that harasses members within or outside of the community.

    Edit: To the downvoters:

        Now we have actual written sexual harassment documented in this thread. 🤡

        Rules 1 and 5 are being openly broken. Thanks for showing me the dregs of this community.

            Just to be clear, I’m not even upset. I work in STEM so seeing this all unfold has only further confirmed and given me more evidence that I was correct in my original assessment of the joke. I’m writing this stuff out in the hopes that others read it and see what is going on.

            I’m all good with dark humor. But the punchline is not “sexual harassment is bad”, it’s “Sexual harassment is okay, and it is funny to harass people.”

            That’s why, even though it’s fake, the punchline is still “look at this scenario, isn’t doing sexual harassment hilarious? You (the audience) should also do sexual harassment to other people because it’s funny, and people will laugh with you.”

            And it’s worked, there is actual sexual harassment in this thread, people have been encouraged to do it because they saw me as an easy target (“stable boy”). They saw that I wasn’t for the joke, so they inserted me as the victim in the original joke. Further, people are upvoting open sexual harassment towards me.

            That’s why I don’t really want to be a part of this community, and why I don’t even want to see stuff from this community. If this is what passes as acceptable humor here (the original joke, and then continued poking fun at users), then I don’t want to be a part of it.

            We can agree to disagree. Again, not upset, just disappointed.

            Mate, I’m lighter than a kite. Any apparent anger in my posts is due to your projection.

            You need to chill, man.

      I think i recognize some context you’re missing.

      I feel like this is in response to an unsolicited ERP request from the left chatter, making it essentially proportionate.

      Now I can’t be certain but that is a common thing I’ve seen people do so it feels likely.

        So your agreeing with me that there was sexual harassment, and then there was more sexual harassment?

        Thank you for proving my point even further.

        Edit: It’s even worse!

        That means this content breaks Rule 1 as well

        Refrain from using harmful language pertaining to a protected characteristic: e.g. race, gender, sexuality, disability or religion.
