Men and women are both equal, so it makes sense that some are starting to speak up when feeling uncomfortable with some sexual advances at work. It is not necessarily stupid, but I do share the opinion that this sudden rise of sexual harassment complaints as an exaggeration and a way to look for an easy buck or attention, both with males and females alike.

This is a prime example of another failed Liberal policy. They think they can come in and place laws on the books to protect one demographic, in this case originally women, and ignore all of the rest. This simply opens the door for abuse elsewhere as shown in this article with men. They constantly talk about the slippery slope, and this is a prime example. Once you start with the nonsense of trying to legislate protection for every little thing that offends people, it starts to snowball into a huge unmanageable mess.

I think the men are doing this in some kind of retaliation against women. Yes, it's stupid. There should be a sign in every job place that reads, "Do your job, and quit messing around! You are costing the company money" Which might be better used for healthcare benefits, or dental insurance for the worker's families. Notice most companies don't have dental insurance for their employees, anymore. I wonder if this could be a reason why?

No, there is nothing stupid about that article. Harrassment is nonproductive and really doesn't belong in the workplace regardless of who is doing the harrassing. Managers need to stay on top of the laws.

I think its just people trying to be lazy looking for a quick buck and maybe some paid time off of work and we are making it easier and easier for this to happen

You know, if more people would realize how much more money they could make being self-employed, most of this nonsense would go away.
Of course, if more people did that, they'd realize just how much of our earnings the Fed confiscates, and maybe we'd elect people that would fix it for real, rather than disguising their actions.

I thinks its great that men are speaking up, women have held the flag for harrassment and being the "victims" forever. Here are those equal rights they have been fighting for.

Hey, if some neocon pervert like Bill O'Reilly tries to mess with me at work I'd file harrassment charges too!
