Literally, as I was catching up on the thread, my phone buzzed to let me know I had a connection request and message from a recruiter on LinkedIn.
Hi Adam
Hope you are well. I am keen to get in touch regarding an opportunity for...details...
Are you open to new opportunities?
Kind regards
How odd would it have been if there was something like this included in the message:
"you look very handsome in your profile photo. One of the nicest photos I've seen on LinkedIn. I'm sure we could do business together."

So what would have happened if he'd refused on the basis she was a munter and told her that?

I'd be fooking ecstatic, compliments are thin on the ground as you get older and fatter!!!  |

Very unlikely to happen. |

she has a point on the professional angle.. but her response is ridiculous..
Theres not a woman or man on this earth who doesnt like a compliment .. if some hot Brad Pitt lookalike said it she'd be swooning..
Give her twenty years..she will be dying to get a compliment..
Needs to have the rod removed from her backside

Very unlikely to happen. I agree GC But sometimes women are very strange.... |

How about in a bar, is it wrong to approach a woman and pay her compliments? or ask her out for a date? or just a coffee some lunch time? |

Now if the bloke messaged her that comment it would be newsworthy and hero like at the same time. |

Women want compliments and then dont want compliments.
Why do men never realise we will never win.
Agreed if he was hot and her age she would have loved it.
Its a bit creepy but some people are creeps get over it.
Someone added me and then got all arsey about my spelling and grammar and proceeded to point out every mistake on my profile page which I enjoyed reading and changed my profile accordingly, he thought he was being cool but in the end I won by just messaging thanks.

The more I think about it the more I'm against her. I mean for god sake so what if his intent was to pull her? It's not as if he used a company message board to do it.
It's a bloody compliment! Stupid bitch!
I'm with bobblehat. She will have spent half the morning trying to look nice, and then she kicks off when someone says it. Stupid vindictive attention seeking bitch. |

Genuinely lolled on a train! Reaction is pretty OTT I mean he closed it with a pretty nice professional comment and prewarned his comment for context. I am sure if she responded back saying you too he would be on it like a car bonnet but still.... |

She is right, the old guy is wrong. However, it was a small slight and the severity of the punishment is completely disproportionate. It is wrong that a professional should be judged so blatantly on their looks, but the lengths she has gone to to shame this guy and possibly ruin his career are much worse and obviously much more calculated.
We live in an age of weaponised offence taking.
