A woman appeared to record her boss making suggestive remarks about her clothing and asking to see her breasts in a viral TikTok.
TikToker @deathkittyx, who goes by Harper on the app, uploaded the video yesterday. It has since been viewed more than 4.4 million times.
In the comment section, @deathkittyx explains that she works in home healthcare and takes care of a quadriplegic. It is unclear based on the video if the “boss” harassing her is her patient or her patient’s guardian.
@deathkittyx films herself reacting with visible discomfort to a man who is talking to her suggestively about her clothing. “Imagine you’re back healthy. You’re wearing these cute pink shorts, with a cute little white, silky blouse, looking all so cute,” he says. “Sexy panties on.”
In another frame, @deathkittyx records herself denying her boss after he allegedly asks to see her breasts. “I want to see how small they are,” the man says. “For real.” She responds to both inquiries with a “No.”
Many of the top comments on @deathkittyx’s video come from users defending her against accusations that the video was staged or that she somehow invited the harassment by denying her boss’s requests in a “flirty” manner. At the time of this writing, most of the immediately visible comments are positive, making the allegedly negative comments difficult to locate. (The Daily Dot could not immediately reach out to @deathkittyx, as only her mutual followers can comment on the video.)
“She exposes her boss who is clearly in a position of power, literally has proof, and you judge her by her TONE????” @celeste_smith_0 wrote.
“OK for everyone saying ‘well don’t say no like that’ uh the last few times I tried saying no sternly they tried [getting] physical because they were upset,” @makamoo_13 commented. “They felt offended and I’ve had to run from people. It’s hard to be stern in a power dynamic like this.”
