How do these women prove anything? But I suppose 50 aren't all gonna make it up
 
I had to look that word up!
I came across it in a book called London Labour and the London Poor by Henry Mayhew where he interviews ordinary London people in Victorian times. A fascinating snapshot of how tough life was back then, and the characters come alive from the descriptions, its as if you are there talking to them in person. Second half of the book is just boring statistics.
 
Kirsty Wark, Ulrike Johnson and Rod Stewart have commented.

Most of the victims are unknowns.

For example, he told a junior female colleague he wasn’t wearing any boxer shorts under his jeans.

Sounds like he just needs a smack in the chops
 
From my pov it's about balance. I'm in my 50s so old enough to know what work places could be like a few decades back compared to now (broadly speaking.) I think, in general, it's better for everyone today as long as the rules don't make everyone terrified to open their mouth.

I'll give you an example. I was working on a production line in my late teens. One day the line supervisor walked up to a girl working beside me, tapped her on the shoulder and said 'get your lips round this!' He had his pockets turned inside out and his zip pulled down. The girl called him a perv and turned back to get on with her work.

I expect some on here might think 'so what's the harm?' whereas I tend to think yes, these things were maybe acceptable (or should we say tolerated) years back, however best left in the past.

I agree with that, only difference is back then the girls dad might show up and give him a punch, now his life would be ruined (maybe he deserves it i don't know)
 
I think some girls can be a bit over sensitive nowadays. I mean making a few suggestive comments has wrecked his life. I could have sent loads of women to prison when I was working as a kissagram, they are worse than men.
