To quote "unstable, emotional and weak" and "mentally imbalanced". If these are your true opinions, you should most certainly avoid asking out women at work. You will be throwing your career down the tubes. For those men with a genuine respect for women and an appreciation for the value we bring, the result will be much different. The advice above will be flattering to a woman and will most likely win a friend if not a date. Your attitude determines your altitude. If your attitude is one of respect, the result will be respectful as well. I am astonished at the comments made about women and the workplace in this blog?

The employer will fire the man first, as there are no federal or state government agencies or courts that support him (Think of the Duke student's false rape charge by a whore, without the media attention). If your a guy, it would be wise to stay away from woman in the family too, as when she divorces you (unilateral, no-fault, 50% divorce rate), though the man is legally innocent, he will lose his children, home, 18 years of income, and certain liberties. Read "The Tyranny of Tolerance" by a sitting judge. He would lose his job if he supported a man and not a woman. Feminism (man bad, woman god) is the rule of law. http://www.randomhouse.com/catalog/display.pperl?isbn=9780307339201&ref=banner&name=Thtyranny Stay away from women at work, as she has the power and benefit of the doubt for her.

I guess it's just as well that some of these commenters prefer to keep their distance from the women in their offices. Those women probably thank them. At last, though: etiquette for outlaws. There's some good stuff here. Wow. I guess it’s just as well that some of these commenters prefer to keep their distance from the women in their offices. Those women probably thank them.

My own sister told me it all depends on how cute is the guy. Jeff is 100% correct. My own sister told me it all depends on how cute is the guy.

Any man with all his mental faculties intact knows that this advice is essentially how to commit suicide. Oh and by the way "European", this is about life in America. I know it sounds like "we have to get a life," but this is our reality. Christina Laun,

If the woman thinks you're cute, then you can do no wrong. If she thinks you're icky, then you're one step away from a meeting with HR. It doesn't matter what you actually did, the only thing that matters is how she feels about you. Jeff, you are so right. If the woman thinks you’re cute, then you can do no wrong.

I call it the Brad Pitt contradiction. Suppose two men, one a normal fellow and the other Brad Pitt, engage in EXACTLY the same activity in pursuit of romance with a woman at work. The acts of the normal fellow can be harassing while EXACTLY the same acts by Brad Pitt aren't. Why? Because the law defines harassment by the emotional effect on the woman, not the objective acts of the man. All 25 points, listed by Ms. Laun, can be cause for a harassment action. For example, apply the Brad Pitt test. If Brad Pitt maintains eye contact (no. 24), it's romance. If the normal guy does it, it's creepy harassment. Anything can be harassment. Anything. At law, men are held hostage to the fickle emotional states of women. That's unjust. This article illustrates the absurdity of harassment law. I call it the Brad Pitt contradiction.
