Why can't a guy compliment a girl anymore without her automatically assuming the worst of his motives?

Women have been oppressed for so long that now that the bonds of oppression have loosened so much, all some women know is that they should call behavior of the opposite sex "Sexual Harrassment", but they are not sure why.
Example, if a guy complements a women, that's just nice yet, some women would call it Sexual Harrassment because they want to show that they are onboard with the feminist regime.

What giving a compliment has to do with sexual harassment I will never know.
Sexual harassment is a form of sex discrimination.The legal definition of sexual harassment is “unwelcome verbal, visual, or physical conduct of a sexual nature that is severe or pervasive and affects working conditions or creates a hostile work environment.”
The conduct of the harasser must either be severe or it must be pervasive to be sexual harassment.
SO severely complimenting someone may be sexual harassment. < I miss having an eye rolling smiley in here sometimes!>
I guess you will just have to keep your compliments to give to people you know will appreciate them, like your mother for example.
Karma.

I really don't. I love compliments especially from a hot guy it can sometimes turn a bad day into a good one. I'm not looking for attention cause I have a great husband, but to me a good natured flirtation doesin't hurt a damn thing

Just stop trying to compliment women, it will make your like so much easier, dude. Limit your compliments to your wifey and blood relations, outside of that, let 'em burn before you try another compliment. They don't want to hear it anyways.

Well if they want a man gone at work, they just get him to compliment her and presto, a report for sexual harrassment. Or they dress up skanky to get a reaction to be abel to sue the company they work at for $exual hara$$ment. They do not really think it is harrassment, they just use the power they have at their advantage to get what they want. Sux for the ladies who are really beeing sexually harrassed since everyone will think thats just another witch abusing the system.

Women are attempting to control the conversation. By doing so, they attempt to control what men say, and then what men think.
It is very much a power play, and men must not let women continue to play this game.

Some people are just tight-a*ses.
Or it could be how you approach them (just coming up out of nowhere, etc) and the way you look/present yourself.
But a majority of the time...they're tight-a*ses.
