I'm so glad that sexual harassment wasn't just laughed at in this episode.
"I feel like lots of 70's shows glossed over or laughed at sexual harassment in the workplace since sexual harassment wasn't taken seriously back then. If the media had made a point to showcase workplace harassment as not ok then perhaps workplace harassment wouldn't have been so pervasive back then and maybe would even be less pervasive nowadays as well...."
