    So did she learn it herself, as per her first comment.

    Or did her dad teach her this, as per her second comment?

    Make up your mind!

    Good advice, but obviously sprinkled with bs.

    Also, posting the first comment would have avoided ALL of the confusion people are having about “not laughing at jokes”.

      It sounds like her dad taught her the general advice, but she learned (herself) through using the advice that specifically sexual harassers stop laughing when you ask why their “jokes” are funny.

      So both can be true as I’m understanding/reading it.

      I can tell my kids whatever I want. They generally trust me, but will retain some level of skepticism until they discover that my advice is valid. In this case her Dad may have suggested, “try x” but she didn’t realize how effective the approach would be until she used it once.
