    I'm supposed to be outraged correct?

    Or no because manager is female and I'm male

    Pay day, file sexual harassment! That's how it goes in this country...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,276 ✭✭✭✭Potential-Monke


    Yeah, dude, seriously, get onto a solicitor. Some wan just got 56k for putting boiling water into a glass jug, I think you'll be looking at a couple hundy k for sexual assault by a person in power!

    Unless she was good looking, in which case, yeah, you're a man, get over it.

    What’s the point of the question?

    Either you’re outraged about your manager slapping you on the arse, or you’re not. Either way it’s entirely your own business how you choose to proceed - either make a complaint against your manager, or get on with your life. What you choose to do in your particular circumstances has no bearing on what anyone else chooses to do in similar circumstances.

    Doesn't sound like you're outraged.

    Give them the benefit of the doubt unless they're an asshole, or you're genuinely outraged.

    Nice


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,231 ✭✭✭Hercule Poirot


    I think you should totally make a move on her somewhere sexy and intimate at the workplace - like the stationary cupboard

    If internet pornography has taught me anything this is the appropriate response


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 393 ✭✭PeteEd


    did u deserve a slapped arse?

    Are you lying in bed with her now having second thoughts about what happened last night?

    Time to sue and retire....
    for added monies, make sure leaving drinks in work are hot and poured from a glass jug into a cup held between your legs.

    In seriousness though, if it was unwanted contact, it is sexual assault, so you do have the right to report it.
    Men can be victims too.

    I've quite a few but as near 99% are male I wouldn't be taking any slaps....

    Next time turn around quick so she ends up patting you on the Mickey.......nice.....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,930 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    What would happen if you did it to her. Think about that and then make a decision on your next step.

    Equality all the way; but seriously can a woman slapping a man on the ass really damage or effect him long term. Men and woman are different species. I would have no issue if every woman I walked past wanted to rub my rear. Now back to earlier question o.p, is she hot ?.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,644 ✭✭✭✭punisher5112


    I'd be flattered to be honest especially if she a hottie

    No for the reason you quoted, wouldn’t mind one or 2 of my female managers slapping me on the arse!

    Who has said that you shouldn't be bothered because you're male and she's female?

    In fairness, there's nothing false about the equivalenyc.

    Edit: You should make a twitter acount like the reporters :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 805 ✭✭✭mrmorgan


    It's totally fine for a woman to do this........

    But just dont look her in the eye, you will be up in HR then!!

    Today on 'Things That Didn't Happen'...

    oh it happened alright, but 0 fscks were given (.... or received :/ )

    It was tongue in cheek ('scuse the pun) poke at the current outrage of the reporter getting booty slapped.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 964 ✭✭✭Reviews and Books Galore


    As a sidenote, the event in the media at the moment is kind of like if a woman slaps a mans bottom, and then he drags her into a bathroom and beats her up for a few hours.



    There's a certain level of sadism and overreaction going on here which, imo, is the same as above.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,219 ✭✭✭pablo128


    Was it a light pat, or could it be best described as a 'red hand of ulster' kind of slap?

    Slap her arse back?


  • Advertisement
  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,511 ✭✭✭Purgative


    Depends:


    If she was petite and it was just a flirtatious little tap, I'd put it in the Fapbank.


    If she was a fine strapping Colleen and she cracked on the arse so hard that it knocked me into the wall, I'd probably take it further.


    Hope this helps.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,921 ✭✭✭John Doe1


    OP, did you watch that video of the runner slapping the female reporter's arse and get triggered? Story definitely did not happen.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,996 ✭✭✭antimatterx


    Doesn't matter if you're a man, or woman, get over it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,129 ✭✭✭TheRepentent


    I'm jealous OP..the last person to slap my ass was my mammy :o

    Wanna support genocide?Cheer on the murder of women and children?The Ruzzians aren't rapey enough for you? Morally bankrupt cockroaches and islamaphobes , Israel needs your help NOW!!

    It doesn't take much to figure it out.

    Something happened to me that meant nothing yet is apparently getting some bloke in the US criminally charged and general worldwide outrage.

    It was a comment on the ridiculousness of the whole thing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,980 ✭✭✭minikin

    Why didn't you make it clearer that you're a television reporter and were slapped on the arse in the middle of conducting a live report?

    Well, let’s just assume this did happen. I’ll humour you. Why did you not do anything about it? What was stopping you?

    You should be outraged and you shouldn't let it go. Its a sign of disrespect and it undermines your professionalism and you.
