A 2005 Saturday Night Live sketch with Tina Fey that satirizes workplace sexual harassment training rules.

Used as a joke or as an example of why workplace rules and dating dynamics are funny and relatable.

Another commenter posted the same concept in the form of an SNL skit. ▶ this video The reason that skit is funny and relatable is because it doesn’t take an incel to recognize this nuance of women’s reactions to being approached by two different classes of men.

By "relatively little money" you mean triple the cost of the ticket... So just like the Tom Brady method of avoiding sexual harassment[1] [1] ▶ this video

Yeah, it's not fine. I meant it in a different way (and was being somewhat sarcastic): that in a lot of cases, office flirting (even among equal peers) can seem OK if the woman likes the guy, and creepy if they don't (e.g. he is awkward, nerdy, out of shape, etc). In essence, a comment on how "jocks" get away with more of that kind of stuff. ▶ this video
