Comment on Ex Google engineer claims she was harassed and “Google did nothing about it”parent

That's what I thought too, now I'm not so sure:

"If you are a strange man trying to talk to me on my way to or from work, when I am commuting alone, you are a harasser, pure and simple."

Her attitude and what happened are two separate things.

Given that she isn't lying, it doesn't matter what her opinion on interacting with strange men are (radical as they are). It doesn't change what happened to her.

What harassment is depends on who you ask.

If you mean the legal definition, consider that even different courts often disagree.
