The original PO was therefore curious to ask, if this homonym is used, will it constitute sexual harassment? After the post was exposed, it caused heated discussions among netizens. Many people pointed out that as long as they were uncomfortable, they would have doubts regarding sexual harassment. They suggested that colleagues of the original PO might send a sex peace meeting or file a lawsuit, “Send a sex peace meeting”, “Absolutely. It’s sexual harassment, just cut off the text of the male supervisor and send it to the company’s gender equality supervisor and the general manager, and all the conversations will be found out to be you”, “These words themselves are fine, but you can tell him that these words make you feel uncomfortable, It would be considered sexual harassment if he continued.”
However, some netizens said that the supervisor may just be joking, and wrote in the message, “It’s okay to dig you a few times”, “It’s okay to dig you a few times, but if you feel uncomfortable, you need to react”, “If you can’t dig your machine, you can use Japanese. Transliteration? I think it’s a bit reluctant”, “Isn’t it good for British dramas?”, “These words have nothing to do with sex.”
