Plommy made some valid points.
Do I think "Honey bunny" is a ridiculous name to call a co-worker? Absolutely. However, the co-worker should have said something to Casper as opposed to making it strictly a management issue.
Sexism can be very subjective in this case. In order for it to truly fall under the umbrella of sexism, it would need to have been used in a condescending term in order to belittle the recipient or to foster the stereotype that women are lesser. While Casper may not have made the comment to belittle the woman (or foster a stereotypical female role), it was possibly her perception that he did. Regardless, she should have addressed it with him.
Thanks pal, you make good points as well. I agree that she should have taken it up with Casper first instead of going to management first.
As you can see I get annoyed when people claim to be victims over the most insignificant things.
It's like the younger women of today are conditioned to blame men for all their perceived problems and not realizing how good they have it in a 1st world country. Have women been trained to not accept any responsibility?
Men are ALLIES of women but its reached the point where guys stop putting up with all the shit, we are not your enemies ladies.
I'm against injustice, against either sex but its so cool and in fashion nowadays for women to always take exception to almost everything men do and try to shame them for their behaviour.
Then saying she wishes his girlfriend would smack him upside the head, are you kidding me? Can you imagine the uproar if a man suggested to another man to slap his wife if she did something he didn't approve of? The hypocrisy is sickening.
