“Mr. Chrisley subjected Plaintiffs to sexual harassment that was so severe and pervasive, it created a hostile work environment,” the documents claim. “During staff meetings, Mr. Chrisley routinely asked Chrisley Asset Management employees if they ‘got laid over the weekend.’ … At virtually every staff meeting, Mr. Chrisley would make loud, sexually suggestive comments, as well as on a daily basis in the office.”

For example, “When a new employee at Chrisley Asset Management was being introduced to other employees, Mr. Chrisley stated that she ‘prostitutes on the weekends.’ Mr. Chrisley also asked the new employee in front of other Chrisley Asset Management employees, ‘Are your tits real?’ Unfortunately the new employee is a breast cancer survivor and had undergone a double mastectomy. Plaintiffs were appalled and disgusted by Mr. Chrisley’s offensive and demeaning sexual comments.”

Chrisley regularly accused one employee, Meier, of sleeping with clients to close sales, the documents allege, and said she didn’t receive flowers at the office because her sexual skills weren’t up to par.

Another employee, Tucker, claimed in the documents that on her first day of work, Chrisley “demanded to know the size of her boyfriend’s penis.” And later on her first day, the documents claim, “…Mr. Chrisley began to discuss in graphic detail his sex life, including oral sex with his wife, and asked Ms. Tucker, who is Indian, about the size of Indian women’s vaginas. … Shortly after her first day, Mr. Chrisley asked Ms. Tucker in the presence of his son, if she would take his son’s virginity. She told him no and left to go home.

1. Ugh! Now I know why

the TV ads for the show made me want to retch. Chrisley came across as a shmuck, and apparently that's just what he is.

3. That was my take too.

I watched the commercial and thought "Holey fsck, this fsck is fscking unlikable. How the fsck did this ever fscking get green-lit?"

4. I agree with Chan790...

How the f%$ did this vile thing get on the air?

The taste of the American public is hitting rock bottom.

5. That it was women who sued him and not men is surprising.

My gaydar is pretty sharp (being one myself) and it went off bigtime when I saw the promo for this dreck.

That he's from Atlanta (like me) is embarrassing enough, along with those dreadful 'housewives' on that other show.

There are good people in Atlanta, trust me.

6. When I saw the promo, I thought it was a parody.

I will NOT be watching.
