During my housemanship, I had a consultant who usually called me "love", initially I was uncomfortable, but on asking my seniors, I got to realise that it was her nature to be sweet and kindhearted, and she reserved such names for junior docs under her who were diligent and trustworthy.
Bottom line: The context is what really matters

all women can not be useless like someone who bragged that she bleeped her boss to get a job and some people used it level all women prostitutes. This act of hers restored the dignity of womanhood.

A man calls you 'sweetie' mainly to mentally torture you until you resign and you actually break down and resign?

Some of us are labelled 'Ashawo' for daring to be head of a small unit, we do our freaking job still and you're frantic over freaking sweetie?!

reminiscing:
I totally agree with her action. Women are no longer safe in this part of the world.... I normally use the "dear" word when I chat with friends so I did this with a senior colleague of fine and he had been inviting me to his house. When I eventually went there, I was decently dressed as usual but he tried forcefully kissing me and I was like "what" He said I usually call him "dear" so he feels I am in love with him.
Since that day, I just know most guys are not normal in this part of the world. Women, ladies and girls should be very careful and shouldn't give chance to the slightest means of molestation

Lady quite job because her boss calls her sweetie
http://mrrightsng..com.ng/2017/12/lady-quite-job-because-her-boss-calls.html


A lady, who goes by the name Sarah Mcgovern on social network site Facebook, has quite her job over what she described as harassment and persistently being refereed to as sweetie by her boss. Sarah took to Facebook on December 7th 2017 to narrate her experience. She wrote: I don't post many deeply personal things online, but I want to share this. I quit my job about a month ago because of harassment. Below is my letter of resignation. I think it's important to share this truth, and to know that many of us will not tolerate the abuse. We can and should walk out. #metoo "Hi Elias, This is my letter of resignation, effective today, October 31, 2017, my last partial day of employment. Since the second day of my employment, on October 12, 2017, I have asked you not to call me "Sweetie." I have asked you not to call me Sweetie more than 5 times since then, and you have still not respected this request. I nearly walked out because of this last Tuesday, October 24, 2017. I stayed to give you one more chance, because you said you finally understood how important this request was, and that you would stop this specific behavior immediately and for good. You only agreed to this after I told you in anger and tears, ready to quit, how important it was that you stop. I was very upset not only from the name calling, but also because I knew you were discussing this dynamic with Tony, who just days before had come up and said to me, "Sarah and Sweetie both start with an S" - a completely inappropriate comment, seeking to instigate an upsetting situation for me, brought on by your behavior. Now, even after all of that, and with your own agreement to stop, this morning, October 31, 2017, you called me Sweetie again. This is unacceptable. I have never heard you call any of the men at your company "Sweetie," which shows that this is clearly only a behavior that you are directing at me as a woman. Your team is even aware of your poor treatment of new female employees. One team member actually told me, while laughing, that they take bets on how long "each one [referencing females] will last." That was shocking to hear, to say the least. For these reasons, I am resigning. Gender-based discrimination is one of the most overt and harmful ways you can create a hostile work environment, an environment that is very damaging to one's health and well being. This is what you have done, and I will not tolerate it. Please confirm your receipt of this letter, voice any disagreements that you may have. Please also send my final paycheck (for 45 hours, 40 last week + 5 today) to my home address at .... Street, Garden Grove, CA .... as soon as possible, and let me know once it is mailed. I hope in the future you are more careful in your treatment of others. It means more than you realize.

Sincerely,

Sarah McGovern"

Not all these ladies that sleep their way to the top, taking advantage of men. Then 20 years later, they come out with allegations of sexual harassments.

She is in USA, not Nigeria. Feeding herself should not be a problem.

This is utter rubbish. She needs a mental examination!
Sweetie,love, sweet heart...etc are all stuff people use to exchange pleasantries. Contrary to what many people think, I feel she is not the saint she wants people to see her as.

She will find another job and a better one at that. You shouldn't allow people to abuse you because of a job.

Sexual harrasment is different from rape.

Calling someone sweetie is sexual harassment. Sexual harassment is an unwanted sexual advances. Besides, IT IS A WORK ENVIRONMENT. You don't call your colleague ‘sweetie, dear, darling'. What happens to calling them by their given names? You should be formal and polite not flirtatious and sweet.

How about the fact that she didn't appreciate the term and she made her feelings known several times but guess what he ignored it and even discussed it with a fellow colleague. That should not be acceptable. It can be very uncomfortable and awkward for the recipient.


Donjazzy12:

This is pure madness! Calling someone sweetie is not sexual harassment but in the West where men foolishly lost all their rights because of pussy, anything a man does is considered as rape until the woman says otherwise.
