He actually told another co-worker my p*ssy must be wet because my forehead is big.
So I just recently began an office job about a month ago where most of my coworkers are men and it seems that one of the other male new hires has trouble with filtering himself. Let’s call him Fred.
About a week ago he offered to put me on a blind date with his friend and I said I wasn’t interested in dating anyone at the moment so he then proceeded to ask me if I am a lesbian. I said no I am not.
A day or two after that, another female coworker and I were having an innocent conversation about astrology, (I personally don’t believe in the stuff but I find astrology fun and entertaining so I entertained the convo.) Anyway I asked Fred what his birthday was and he was like “I don’t really understand that horoscope stuff, is it like how girls and guys base random things off of superficial stuff like shoe size? Is it like how I knew you weren’t lesbian because of your forehead size?”
My female co-worker told him that made no sense and he then said to me “I also knew something else about you from your forehead size” and he just did this nasty chuckle and smile and I said “what?” And he said it’s something only men should know and proceeded to whisper into another male coworker’s ear next to him. Let’s call this other male coworker Richard.
They both refused to tell me what they were saying and I said it was inappropriate of them to whisper things about me especially right in front of my face. A day later I asked Richard what Fred said to him and he said “he said that girls with big forheads have wet p**sies.” Obviously I was appalled and disgusted.
Fast forward to this week, Fred has already said multiple other weird and rude things to me. Earlier this week he offered to get me a cupcake from the break room and when I politely declined he mockingly said over and over that it “must be because you’re one of them feminists.” I said “ya I guess I am a feminist but what does this have to do with me not wanting a cupcake” and he goes “I get it I know how women be difficult sometimes” and I said “I also don’t know what me being a woman has anything to do with this” he then goes “oh are you really a woman, we never know these days can I see a baby picture?” I ignored him completely after that and it was silent for a bit and then he started asking me over and over who I was planning to vote for in this election but I just continued to ignore him.
Today I ended my shift alone with Fred and he goes “you know what I was talking about with Richard last week right?” Whilst grinning and i said no (I knew he was referring to the wet p*ssy comment but I did not want to be in an empty office with him discussing that.) He then says “you knowww, the thing about your forehead, what I said to Richard wasn’t bad you know, it was actually a compliment.” And I said “actually Richard told me what you said and if that is true I need you to keep your conversations about me and with me respectful from here on out.” He asked me what he said and I said that there was an inappropriate comment made about my private parts and Fred said “no no no!! That’s not true at all but I still can’t tell you because it’s just between him and I, we can clear this up tomorrow when Richard is here.”
Anyways I knew working in a male dominated field would come with some challenges but I didn’t know they would start 3 weeks into my job. I plan to have a meeting with my boss soon about all of this but I don’t want to be painted as a villain so soon into my job. Does anyone here have any advice for me?
