So I (male) wore a short sleeve polo shirt to work one day last week. Today I get a call from HR that a female coworker reported me and was really distressed bc she could see my nipples through my shirt.... continued

Welcome to the life of women everywhere

Jesus Christ. People need to get over nipples. Everyone has them. The people who are uncomfortable are the ones that need to deal with their own issues.

Omg!!! If she was distracted by your nipples then SHE has the issue not you. Tell HR that you feel sexualized and would like to lodge a counter complaint.

This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.

I'm female btw.

likefunnysmartuplifting

I was going to say the same thing - turn it around and say that after thinking about it, you feel victimized by her specializing you. That is so absurd (F here).

Wear an undershirt next time?

Complaints like this are made against women all the time.
"Oh she is distracting men at work."
Forget the nipple, just by existing.
Glad that you are living our life

How did this person see your nipples? Was it just apparent through your shirt or was she staring up your sleeve?

We’re not a serious country

Was it like really cold or what???? You head lights were ON?

Wow just wow

She needs to work from home. The office is too distracting for her.

LOL what

Welcome to the club.😂

OP - are you single? Asking for a friend

aw, shucks, no... thanks for asking

funny

Shoulda sent her something like this

Uhhh both sexes have nipples... She gonna report your pecks being too big next?

It's a good thing she didn't have to ask me which way to HR, my flexing 💪 might have made things even worse!!!

funny

Wtf just no

It’s not your fault that she had inappropriate thoughts about you despite you being fully clothed 🙄

As a man who’s nips pierce ever piece of cotton that drapes my body, don’t let it bother you (if it did). Hear what HR has to say, even though they’ll probably tell you to wear looser fitting clothing. Consider wearing undershirts (tank top)

Welcome to the world of HR buddy

Wow

In my previous company (consulting firm) and was working for a financial services client - I had a complaint that when I saw down my skirt (that was below the knees) rose to be above my knees and I needed to wear something else (more modest). This was from my male manager directly to me.

I told them unless they were providing a clothes budget for this that I would not be obliging.

Would she prefer the AC turned off??? How about she stop looking at your chest?? This may be the absolute height of “Pearl clutching”.

Let them be offended, nothing happens. It’s a feeling not an action.
