Using sexualized behaviors as a "weapon for arsenal" seems demeaning and pathetic in my opinion. People should be able to move up in their career or in live without using their body as sexual coercion and for people who do use this tactic to advance in something shows that they lack talent and are tacky. I honestly can't really find any pros on this subject except maybe for the person who actually accomplishes a goal with this behavior. If a woman uses her body or sexual behavior to get something she desires and actually get it then I guess it's a pro for her but for the rest of the world it seems like there's only cons out there. If a woman were to seduce her boss to move up in the company then this may show favoritism because the boss will pay most of his attention towards her because he's promised to get something out of it and therefore will take his attention away from the other employees who also deserve his respect. Also, people who are less attractive might be looked down upon because they aren't seen as sexy and will be shunned by others because of this. I think if companies and boss's are accepting these sexualized behaviors then they are setting an unacceptable standard for their company because they are paying attention to woman who fit their qualifications as attractive and sexy. Work environments are supposed to create positivity and equality among co-workers but if work places are accepting sexual behaviors then they are proving themselves to be a place with low standards that are on the same level as a brothel. This type of behavior is unprofessional and degrading and it seems as if law suits can be formed when this type of activity is occurring in the office.
