Kirk’s slap at humour
AMID sexual harassment claims levelled against Don Burke, former INXS guitarist Kirk Pengilly says he preferred the 1960s when you could slap a woman on the bum and it was taken as a compliment.
Pengilly, attending a Movember charity event in Melbourne yesterday, said men were starting to feel they couldn’t even pay a woman a compliment because it could be seen as sexual harassment.
“I really loved the 60s and 70s when life was so simple and you could slap a woman on the butt and it was taken as a compliment, not as sexual harassment,” he said.
