Fox guest: Take rights from women 'showing skin' at work

Booze-infused office Christmas parties can be threatening affairs, according to Fox News guest Marc Rudov. But men should be more concerned than their female coworkers.

"We live in an era when men have to rely on the sanity and the mood of a woman rather than the U.S. Constitution for his protection," he told the host of Fox's Your World. "Between the EEOC rules and the Violence Against Women Act, the workplace has become a dangerous place for men."

Rudov says that when men look at women "showing their thighs" at the workplace, "they can lose their job."

When asked what exactly he was afraid of, Rudov was hesitant to respond. But he did come up with a solution, although slightly draconian in nature. "For every inch of skin you reveal at work," he suggests, "you give up a right."

VIDEO CLIP @ URL ABOVE from Fox's Your World, broadcast on November 23.

1. Tell me again how we totally exaggerate when we suggest....
that some RWers would like to see American women in burkhas. Right... They would NEVER go that far, to propose that, would they? We are SOOOO evolved. :eyes:

3. Ah, yes...
Typical of the Fixed Noise attitude - put women in burkhas, except for the hot sluts that we show on-screen? I wonder if that female producer "showed some skin" and therefore "deserved" to be sexually harassed by His Loofahness?

:wtf:

6. Give up a right? Oh, this is the slobbering knuckle dragger's wet dream.
Does the sleazy misogynist employer get to CHOOSE which right he takes away?

9. American Freakin' Taliban!
No air conditioning where I work, and it's HOT in summer. I'm sure I wouldn't ever see the light of day again if it were up to these people.
