You haven't really explained why it isn't demeaning to be sexually harassed for money.

Assume you will be sexually harrased doing the job. Fine. Did you know you were likely to be sexually harassed in the job?

If a hooters waitress complains about a customer it's standard that hooters will ban the customer and that most customers don't sexually harass the staff, but that doesn't make the sexual harassment that happened just disappear. It just means the same person isn't likely going to continue doing it.

So the real question is "Why is it your decision to decide if someone else would exchange being sexually harassed in exchange for money?" Do you think the women there are stupid? Do you think they aren't allowed to make that decision? Why are you deciding this on behalf of another person? Do you think you know better than they do? The bottom line is "my body my choice". Stop being someone else's keeper.

I see, so sexually harassing people on the job is acceptable if they're okay with it.

No problem grabbing a secretary's ass at the office if she likes it, right?

Feel free to refer back to paragraph two, lines one and two of my above reply.

Yes, I saw the part where you said sexual harassment was acceptable if the object of the harassment kept their mouth shut. I just thought that it would be better for the both of us if I pretended I didn't.
