According to the KHP, the allegations stemmed from a pair of interactions between Dawes and a female colleague. In one instance, Dawes reportedly complimented the colleague on her appearance, saying, “how nice it was to see a female really taking care of herself.” A subsequent email from Dawes to the same colleague began with the line, “Just a note to tell you that I think you look absolutely amazing today!” The colleague, who found these remarks inappropriate and perceived them as sexual advances, reported the incidents to her supervisors.

Cis people consider basic compliments to be sexual harassment now? Might as well just ban employees from talking to each other at that point. I'm sure Kansas applies this completely evenly to all employees of all genders, cis or otherwise /s
