And I mean nobody: not the workmen in the street who wolf-whistle at just about anything that moves; not the security guards at the building where she works, even though she sees them every day; not the myriad of businessmen bustling around her; nor the young men joking about their conquests around the water cooler during lunchtime. No one.

Neither party is willing to compromise, even as a submission to one another would improve the lives of them all.
