Gratuitous Gratuities
When setting tables in a restaurant,
You find your hands are full much of the time;
The same is true of service; I don't flaunt
My body, but it seems that it's no crime
For guys to pass right by, then make a grab,
As if they owned the place and all the staff;
Some whisper that they think I am a slag;
And others simply grip fistfuls of ass;
Well, fuck the lot of them, is what I say,
A simple spill of soup might, I guess, serve
To screw the twats who think it is just play
To be so hateful as to grope the curve
Of female flesh; regrettably, it's true:
Misogyny stays king despite #metoo.

Yeah I see it all the time
Like men think it's an ok thing
It's the chest staring that I dislike
No, I like to be admired, sure, but the obvious gawping for way too long with undressing eyes..Oh no no no
Oh the inebriated ones are the worst
when thinking it through in sensible 'I shouldn't do that' goes straight to their cocks

I've seen colleagues spill coffee and such deliberately - but I don't think I'd retaliate - even verbally - you just get into trouble with management - and in these roles one is eminently replaceable it seems - shrugs
And the glazed eyes of men focused on the parts rather than the whole - clearly shows what matters to them - and how they are to be avoided - a very everyday incident for some imbeciles.

I concur wholeheartedly
Thankfully my man isn't a jealous man
He knows their sexist ways and let's it breeze over
Respect to the non jealous types I say

Some men are truly stuck in the cave man mentality. There is a difference between admiring a woman's beauty and being plain vulgar... sadly some men struggle with that line. Thought provoking write on a current and important issue.

It amazes me how many men think shit like this is acceptable. I'm often embarrassed by my gender and the basic inability to evolve into an informed man. I support your efforts to continue to call it out.

Where the hell do you work, where that’s allowed but you get in trouble for retaliation? I think your workplace should be reported!

Misogyny, and sexual harassment, are still prevalent. Certain individuals actually take pride in grabbing a fistful of flesh. just showing what jerks they really are. I love this write, and the clever title.

These so called ." Men "
Are just ignorant pigs who have no intelligence to think with there minds and not there poor limp dicks. If I was there my dear trustee words would be shared as I would school those boys as a dream should when a woman is groped. Yes I admire a woman's form won't deny. May sound old fashion but theaters and smile of the woman is what attracts me. I spoke of the in my inked called CURVES on her. Forget the spill of coffee or soup. Drop a sharp steak knife near their punky balls and Vienna sausage my dear.🔪🔪

Regrettably a good proportion of men act in this way - but that's not to say a significant coterie make up for this to a large degree with their gentlemanly behaviour and sympathetic natures.
