> The metoo campaign IM basically allowed anything from actual abuse to catcalling be called sexual abuse. It expanded the definition of sexual abuse to basically align with only the most extreme feminists.

Are you implying that catcalling someone, in or out of the workplace, should not be considered sexual abuse?

I am saying that there is a context to these kind of social dynamics which can't just be considered binary. It depends on the situation.

All that get's lost in the panic.

Catcalling just seems like a bad example... I can't think of a situation where that seems appropriate?

I'm really not seeing why any of this belongs in the workplace. Why not bars, or if you're not the nightlife type, dating sites?

[ThomPete]

I can think of plenty where it's appropriate. Again it's about context.

[rhelmer]

Well the context in this case (per the article) is the workplace, and the article appears to focus on the US, to disambiguate the laws and norms expected.

[ThomPete]

no the context is the specific workplace and the specific people involved from what i am discussing.
