Judge Rules: "If We Had No Sexual Harassment, We Would Have No Children"!
Edited on Tue Aug-05-08 05:57 PM by BlooInBloo
Can you believe that motherfucking shit?

A woman seeking to become only the third woman ever to successfully bring a sexual harassment case in Russia was dealt a shocking rebuke when the judge threw out her case, ruling that sexual harassment is actually necessary for the survival of the human race:

"He always demanded that female workers signalled to him with their eyes that they desperately wanted to be laid on the boardroom table as soon as he gave the word," she earlier told the court. "I didn't realise at first that he wasn't speaking metaphorically."

The judge said he threw out the case not through lack of evidence but because the employer had acted gallantly rather than criminally.

"If we had no sexual harassment we would have no children," the judge ruled.



Amazing. Just amazing.

2. Sexual harrassment means the girl didn't like you, so quit while you're still ahead.

That's all I gotta say about that. The judge must have lived a life where he had terrible difficulties with the opposite sex.

Also, things such as sexual favors as qualifications for promotions or employment are not ways you get a woman, and if you think it is, you probably have woman problems, too.

3. The judge is probably a closet rapist.
Russia has a loooong way to go when it comes to human rights.
