sounds like assholeman needs to get his 
frisky,
buy a cheapo micro recorder from Radio shack and just have it onrecord whenever he's near your presence to document his harassing comments...over a course of time, it shows its not just a one time thing, but always....then have enough ammo to burn him and settle with the company for sexual harassment

In the right. Never a question about that. Sexual harrassment/hostile working enviroment laws were DESIGNED for situations EXACTLY like this, and are totally in your favor.
Having been involved in numerous suits and almost the target of one very recently, i know of which i speak: the owner and HR person want to bend over backwards to KEEP you from going to a lawyer or making public one word about this: the ball is completely in your court, as we went over: if for any reason, any at all, you dont like where this is headed: its lawyer time to at the very least find out what your options are...
The realities are that you may very well have a clear shot at a major office upgrade/change, serious raise or if it comes to it, a very real possiblity at sueing the company for MULTIPLES of your yearly salary.
You said, and i perceive, that you are not in this to sue them gratuitously, as so many would in your shoes. That deserves big respect. HOWEVER, you certainly are NOT going to work someplace that doesnt give you a safe and comfortable working enviroment, and you are NO WAY going to let them make you leave your job and your safety net for yourself and your kids without a major MAJOR PILE OF CASH. If they cant rectify the situation internally, you will have it fixed via the laws meant for just this purpose...

Thank you darlin... you know the situation now and well.. needless to say, I'm not 100% happy with the way things were handled.
Not sure where things go from here on out but I feel like I AM TO BLAME for some pervert making sexual comments to me... So yea.. Frisky adjust yourself because you provoked it some way some how.. In so many words thats the message that I recieved... but eh.. we are doing everything we can to fix the problem and make sure it doesn't happen again .. but keep in mind we want you to get fat and ugly so that no one wants to even look at you.
I'm deeply saddened with the meeting, though I love my job and my superiors they are in turn trying to please both employee's, myself and the guy that harassed me at the same time.. things can't quite work that way. Nothing is being done on any other level to reprimand him in anyway... not sure if something should be by law but that makes me feel like my claims were just that.. a claim, my side of the story... yet he agrees that he DID say those things but had reason???
I'm sick to my stomach that after I got up the balls to risk a job that I truely love and go to my superiors, I am treated like I am the cause of the problem. Those who know me, know that I am a very modest professional individual. I may carry myself with confidance but NEVER with arrogance and or dress to provoke this type of behavior in the workplace.
First, AAP, i have always wanted to come to one of your pool parties. Any on the horizon?
Second: NO ONE and i mean NO ONE has the right to make a comment about how you dress at work. You are a very classy lady, i have seen your work choices from casual to dressed up and NEVER have you ever looked less than professional. Never a skirt, never any suggestive ANYTHING... you are in no way in the wrong here, and now its time for legal advice to take this past the obvious smoke screen that your employer and his HR people are trying to pull over on you. Its an old and tired counter to your obvious upper hand here: they feel like only effective way to silence you is to plant the seed in your head that YOU are somehow at fault. FUCK THAT. its too obvious for words and it STINKS.
If you somehow perceive that you are at fault, you will not go any further in persuing your RIGHT to a safe and harassment free workplace, or compensation for their inablity or ignorance of the LAW. NO ONE may suggest to you EVER that you are to blame for some neandrafuck suggestion that you should show him your tits. This is not about sex, no asshole thinks that saying shit like that will ever get him any: he is threatened by you and uses the most effective tool little men have and that is attack that which hurts the most. Your physical fitness and confidence is very intimidating to ingnorant men, VERY. You are a stunning and very powerful woman in every way and this felcher thinks that impinges on his 'alpha' status around where you work, that you dont cower to him must make his blood boil.
Back to the 'legal' needs: you MUST see a lawyer to, at the very least, establish the correct and legal paper trail of this and past events, as well as to simply get a solid grip on your rights here. NO employer may EVER suggest that your physical attractiveness gives another employee the right to abuse you. SHIT! THEY AREN'T EVEN ALLOWED TO SAY THAT SHIT OUT LOUD! Saying that you are at fault and deserve abuse for being fit and beautiful is like saying that that Nigger gets what he deserves cause he's a darkie, or that retard in the wheelchair should mind his own, etc, etc... again, FUCK THAT! Racism, gender bias, etc. are ALL wrong, all of them have laws that specificly protect the worker. Can you IMAGINE the uproar if this Clitcock said to a black employee, 'Fetch that for me, Sambo.'?!?!? Same shit, diffent smell.
You have never broken a dress code, which to my understanding DOESNT EVEN EXIST at your company. The laws in most states are perfectly clear on this one: making a comment that your physicality, hot or fat or hunchbacked or wheelchaired or black or one eyed or WHATEVER is all the same and OFF limits. Period. You have some serious issues here on your side, and the fact that your employer made those obseRations in a meeting to discuss sexual harrassment issues is NUTS!!!! They just set themselves up for a fall, and if your lawyer is a shark, they're fucked this way to easter sunday.
get your facts on paper, get the dates and names and wording down now that its fresh, get it to your lawyer or whomever she recomends and stick up for yourself. You are very good people, Friskers, and deserve better than this atiquated crap.

wtf are you serious? Threaten their asses with a law suit and see what they have to say then, or just have someone break that guys knees with a crowbar
ridiculous but do NOT settle for them trying to appease both of you when you carry 0% guilt
I'm damn near positive if you can get it on record that he admited it to them, and you have at least one credible witness to back it up, you could kick their ass in court
