one of my friend is usually being touched inappropriately by his female colleague, he feels uncomfortable and confront her about it but she’s taking it lightly despite knowns that he’s not feeling okay at all. when he reported it to HR department they brushed off it and didn’t take it seriously same thing happened when he discussed it with colleagues they brushed it off and laughed while she’s still doing it. He’s afraid that if he will do something more against it this thing might backfire against him because if she wants she can easily play victim card.

Call corporate. They’ll fire the HR person who didnt take it seriously
Outdated cultural norms and biases.
Because people have been conditioned to believe men always want it and are grateful for any attention from women. It’s fucked.
The Male/Female power balance is kind of like anti-white racism. It exists, but does it matter?
Because men are stronger then women.
If they dont want to be harassed, they have the power to stop women from harassing them.
As simple as that.

Years and years of stereotyping and conditioning.
Real men don’t feel threatened by this. Man up.
Nobody cares about any of men’s struggles or suffering. We’re supposed to suck it up, carry it, not be a burden, and provide.
Not trendy yet. We’ll get there.
The Duluth model, aka the man is ALWAYS the aggressor. That’s why
Had women touch me without permission a couple of times as well. I would say the issue is they were never a threat though. And that makes a difference to alot of people socially
Breh maybe spend more than 4 seconds on you title lol
“Always” is too strong a word here. Case in point,– Johnny Depp and Amber Turd.
However, reality is that, the vast majority of the time, women are the victims in domestic violence cases, and that bias often spills over into how harassment is viewed.
But the same rules apply to your friend as they would to anyone: if he’s being harassed, it’s important to document everything and gather evidence. These situations usually boil down to ‘he said, she said,’ and without proof, victims often aren’t believed.
Also—no one listens, until the right person does. Then it’s a whole other ballgame.
Bc in the grans scheme of things it doesn’t lower our status much. (It’s the microaggressions that hurt us.)
the system goes deeper than what you think bro
its not just favoring them in harassments or divorce or social media contents its so much more
but the reasons are better left untold because then ill be stepping on toes that are stepping on the world
Most men receive little to no female attention to the point that unwanted female attention is coveted. Next time you see a news article about a female teacher raping a boy, count how many creeps chime in with “wHeRe WeRe ThEsE tEaChErS wHeN i WaS a KiD?!”
