"but given the crudeness of your average American male,"

self-hating authors should be required to post a blurb declaring their personality flaws in their bylines? something like "John Del Signore - obese, militant lesbian feminist trapped in a man's body" perhaps?

My own opinion:

Her lawyer knows how to work the crowd during a period of bigtime layoffs.

If she is qualified, and there are no performance issues, her appearance is irrelevant.

If her appearance has detrimentally affeted her male co-workers, fire the male co-workers, they can't do the job.

If there have been (we realize the pics are selective for the press) previous documented issues, with a paper trail, and the plaintiff ignoring them, present them.

My feeling is that there are layoffs right now, she's getting presstime, company may be losing an asset if she increased businesss, drew customers, etc.

Alternate hypothesis: dumpy female supervisor or spurned male supe.

Whatever, to each by their merits....

"And I'm not going to go eat and gain 50 or 100 pounds because my job wants me to be the same size as everyone else.

And she thinks that would make her less attractive?

Bodacious + bootylicious + 50-100 pounds = WIN

Temporary temptress. That was her job title. That's what she got. Move on.

LMAO:))

O no you get harassed at supermarkets with your son. And so does every other skinny woman! Or any woman for that fact. Sorry you're really nothing special. Yea she's pretty but come on woman like her make me want to smack them. Honestly I flipped through the post pictures and hello you can see a nip! Do you think showing nip is okay in a corporate office setting? No. How about wearing a very low cut pink silk shirt? No. She needs to go on the show what not to wear. You don't need to wear old lady clothes but take a good look in the mirror and say work appropriate or sexy. Looking good for work is different then dressing sexy for work. Ugh. She gives good looking woman such a bad name.

*sigh*

wish there were more stories where the guy is getting harassed for his "assets"

where's the fun for the ladies?

The general comments posted just make her case.

She's a 33 year-old-single mom, not a 21 yo, who kept a high-level job in an imploding industry after a crash that took out Merrill Lynch, Washington Mutual and put AIG and GM on life support.

So, she MUST be whore because she couldn't possibly have a brain to go with that body.

"I get harassed in the supermarket with my son just wearing sweatpants with my hair in a ponytail,"

Where is she shopping? The Associated in Bushwick? 600 pound women wearing hairnets and pushing a cart full of chicken legs and potato chips get harassed like they're the last female on earth. Big deal.

LMAO:))

I don't know about you guys but I've always found it easier to work with hot skinny chicks than ugly fat chicks.

Well, there certainly are a lot of pictures of her available. Did the news outlets take all of those?

You know, that's exactly what seems strange to me - where did all these pictures come from ? I don't know about you, but in my office its pretty unusual for people to take snapshots of each other on a regular basis. She must have posed for these on some kind of fake office set, which makes them staged and therefore they don't "prove" anything.

I'm all for the protecting the rights of hot women ( full disclosure: I am one - so I gotta represent! ) but this story doesn't ring true. I wouldn't be surprised if she had psychological problems.

Pics or it didn't happen.

This is one of those paradoxes where the premise is "come on, sexual harassment can't be that bad? Right?" & then the comments tossed around validate that yes, yes in fact they can be. Stay classy, Gothamist commentors.

you need to let your enlightened manbits out for a breather son. they are obviously hypersensitive and starved for attention.

You are offering? Great! I usually have to trawl Craig's list for subs but sounds like a nice time.

bwahaha!

I'm
