There's this thing called the reasonable person standard. You should read about it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reasonable_person http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/

If you find yourself so embattled with the courts, perhaps you should try and understand the behavior of reasonable people. I have to agree with rayiner -- this sounds like typical male-tech resentment for being called creepy one too many times.
- badclient 13y agoYou don't have to be so embattled in courts to be concerned about it. Your comment is equivalent to telling someone concerned about getting raped that getting raped is their fault.
- mratzloff 13y agoNo, it's not.
- kaitai 13y agoHow is "typical male-tech resentment for being called creepy" functionally any different for the female job candidate? "No, he's not sexist, he just doesn't like women... for good reason!" "No, he's not sexist, he just can't talk to women... for good reason!" "No, he's not sexist, he just has seizures when he sees the color pink, and women are more likely to wear pink." Who cares? The woman still doesn't get the job. The excuses are equivalent to a student saying they deserve an A for trying hard and having extenuating circumstances though they can't actually do what they're graded on. People take "sexist" and "racist" to describe intent. I don't give a s(*& about your intent. It's the effect that's relevant.
