(90,747 posts)Sexual harassment? This woman would say YES. "Chicks." Yeah. That's what we are. Why would they use "chicks" to describe female humans if not a term of minimizing classification. "Hot." Hotness. A yes. Hot - as in firing up the sexual juices perhaps? The ability to hoist the wand, as it were? Better be careful to avoid that four-hour erection, 'eh? "Hot" - which part of me is hot Mr. Man? My boobs or my ass? I'm sure you aren't driven to hardness by looking at my hands or my nose. Certainly not imagining my MIND. Or my BRAIN. Or my CHARACTER.
Dear oberliner - it's JUST. DAMN. TIRESOME. The comment "Minnesota chicks are hot" is nothing but - a prelude to think about how much they'd like to fuck her. Pardon my crudeness, but it fits the situation, I think. That's ALL WE ARE??? Boobs and booty with legs walking around? It's not an isolated incident.
Full disclosure here - I'm one DUer who has a real bone to pick about the world of appearances. Especially regarding women. How we're judged as "valuable" mainly because of our looks. It's always about how we look - as in - how fuck-able do we seem? ALL THE DAMN TIME!!! OVER AND OVER. If a man is ogling a woman and commenting on how "hot" she is, the clear and obvious takeaway is NOT that he wishes to engage her in the local debating society or the next archaeological dig or legislative conference. He imagines taking her to bed. PERIOD. As in - gee, I guess that's all we're good for, isn't it?
And it's DAMN FRICKIN' TIRESOME, my friend. GET. OVER. IT.
