Harrasment problem to end

Please take this seriously as it has become a bit of a problem . From last years pig gig and from this week ends party there has been some valid complaints made that need to be addressed and taken seriously .

While the late night camp fire is billed as " adult in nature " Ladies are NOT to be heckled or harrassed about such things as burn your bra and other statments of adult natured activities .

To chant " burn your bra " is not harrasing ,to heckel any particular lady to do so is harrasment .

I have spoke with atleast 2 attendees who have teenage daughters . They have " valid " concerns of there daughters not being taunted in this manner and i fully agree that this should not take place . It borders on sexual harrasment and is not exceptible .

If some one is mooned , a bra is burnt or some one flashes the crowd at the " late night fire " meaning after midnight that is not an issue to my knowledge . Please be clear NO one is to be hasseld or heckeled to do these types of things or adult natured will be removed from said events to prevent sexual harrasment .

Thank you for your future cooperation on this matter .

Just to make it clear, people can taunt me to shake what my daddy gave me.


Good idea Marv.

Sounds good to me and I hope that this has not been a problem, just a concern to keep it from happening.

So, in other words you want people to act civilized, and use some common sense?

For me (I'm one of the people with a teenage daughters) it has not been a problem yet, just a concern. I don't think that anyone that knows me well would harass my daughter this way but I worry some about the alcohol fueled "mob mentality" taking over and some of the women being made uncomfotable by being pressured into doing something they may feel uncomfortable doing.

Iv gotten a couple PM's since i made this post . This post is not aimed at any single person but it is pretty much aimed at the men including my self .

JeepR put it well , we ( men ) need to be a bit more civilized . Im a long ways from an old prude but i dont want some lady feeling harrassed and it is getting to that point .

I could really care less if some one is flashed , mooned blah blah so long as its there idea and not harrassed into it .

Sadly this is true of All events that I been too. Usally the more beer the more aggressive people get. I think by the end of the night/day most girls are pretty scared.

Im glad to see so far every one understands the point im making .

Cube is correct on the alcohol over riding the common sense at parties and mod mentality has been mentioned all correct

The ladies of the jeep world and parents of teenage daughters should not feel intimidated or concerned about coming to a jeep gathering of friends and is exactly what i would like to see corrected .

I appreciate the handful that brought it too my attention .

Thank you.
I like to have as much fan as the next person, but to each his/her own.

I'm not one to flash or burn my bra (there expensive) :tonka:

I was talking to a lady or two at the last pig gig who were rather uncomfortable, being almost forced into burning there bra.

I suggested a seperate family fire pit, where the ladies/families and kids could relax and not be pressured into anything.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the entertainment from the willing...But pressuring someone to do unwanted things is real real wrong.

I disagree!!! I don't think we need a separate fire pit. People just need to behave themselves. :miff: If it is real real wrong, then don't do it.

You wouldn't sit around a bonfire at home with your great aunt Gilda and encourage her to burn her bra, or pop her top, or whatever else is real real wrong, so don't do it to anyone else. :miff: :miff:

Well i dont care if your aunt or your grandma flashes some one or moons them or what ever after midnight, i feel kids should be turned in by then , or atleast the parents know that things could get out side the Family rating that time of night . But at no time should ladies be heckled to do any thing . This is a jeep gathering not a 60's love in


Looks like every one agrees the harrasment ( pushing ) for bras to be burned and other things is out of line , at the same time I am not saying it needs to be a church social .

Its just a matter of moderation and those with a free spirit can be intertaining if they want but no one is required to burn there bra or any thing of the nature .
