I think it depends on how you say it, although to be honest I'm thinking obscene remarks would be sexual in nature?
Hello; Context matters for sure. I get the feeling this "me to" outing about sexual harassment is beyond simple misunderstanding. Seems more like a poorly defined movement.
Some are using the current atmosphere to get at folks they simply have a grudge with by claiming to have been groped or worse. Sure a few are guilty which gives some foundation but my guess is many claims are made up. I know a few folks I would like to do harm to if I had a risk free way to get at them.
There was an older lady who called in on C-Span this morning. Her story was when she was young she was proud of her developing figure. Also that she was wearing a tight sweater and while sitting on a mans lap he touched her breasts a lot. She did not tell anyone or make a fuss back then but now it was harassment in her mind. Even many decades ago an older man was breaking the law doing such to an underage girl.

As I wrote in an earlier post, I know of some false claims and I bet others do as well.

"cultural appropriation"
Hello; Yes that is the new term. I wonder how complicated the rule book will get with these recent social modifications.
So if one day I "feel" like a different gender I get to change the bathroom I use. But even if I "feel" like a native American I cannot wear a native American costume. Sounds like lots of catch-22's to me.
 
There's a new game called mario odyssey which there was a huge controversy over mario having nipples. It's a GAME. If you don't like the game it's simple, don't play it! There was a bit which I thought could have some hidden meaning which was at the end when peach said " I don't need no man to hold me and I don't want him to neither!" Or something like that. But anyway it looks like a good game but Nintendo, the giant money pit, makes a new and more expensive console every year.
 
8 year old has no place in a dragster, there are plenty of safe racing venues for the age group. drag racing should not be one of them. IMHO

Naw pops, a Jr. Dragster is really just a lawn mower engine (Briggs and Stratton) in a dragster. By 8, a lot of kids are into gocarts, dirtbikes, motor scooters, etc. All of which are waay more dangerous. Btw, I wonder what the editor of the article was thinking posting a video of someone hanging onto the wing of a regular dragster, what did that have to do with anything?
