That's what is hilarious about this interpretation. If you read into that lawyers are not allowed to have fun and party, you missed the real point.

I'll say this for the 100th time. I was explaining again my agreement with someone's elses statement that you questioned. Not sure why you add more to this discussion than what it is. FYI zero emotion on my part and zero emotion that I think you think etc. we are just exchanging words On 10/6/2022 at 4:19 PM, Bosco685 said: As far as this conveying normal practices with women of the times - I have to disagree. I work at a very large company that is led by many high-powered women and most take their image very seriously. And that doesn't mean they are uptight and don't have a fun time. But they are not walking around work proclaiming, "Wow - that guy is really doing it for me!" That's moronic in its messaging that this woman concerned with her image throws that line out so frequently. what are the ages of the women you work with? I'd also contend that your company culture maybe different than what I see in the rest of the world. You also may not be aware of what happens in their private life. I'm not saying what you believe isn't true it can be and so could my experience as well. There's a lot of world out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowhere did I state the character deserved to be harrassed. That's how personal some of you are taking this show. So just dodging the question, huh? Nobody is taking this personally, it just seems you have some questionable takes when it comes to respect, sex, and what exactly constitutes 'embarrassment'.

My company is 200K large and myself I probably interface with at least 200 (+) of them weekly, of which 75-150 are direct meetings. Easily. As far as your emotional attachment to this show, it's been on-going and not directed at me as I have not been excessively personalizing dislike for this show. But it is a letdown for me.

Someone should assemble a video of how many times Jen states, "This guy is doing it for me!" They are making the character out to be sexually excessive. Or is that questionable that they are making the character out to be sexually excessive instead of showing more about her personality and why she should be taken more serious.

"Sexually excessive" what does the even mean, there was like three dudes she actually hooked up with and the rest were one off dates, and this show is rather tame when it comes too dating IRL. It's not like she is banging dudes and telling her boss about it and posting online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
