Nah Penny was right. He needed to hear it.

I never saw this episode, but Penny was absolutely right and didn’t owe Howard anything. And sending her to apologize was not only unfair to Penny, but it clearly validated Howard’s rapey behavior.

Leonard a bitch I’m not asking my girl to apologize to a perv regardless how bad she hurt his feelings

I always skip this episode on rewatches cause they basically make Penny the villian for standing up for herself.

Howard was very creepy and pathetic!

This is embarrassing. Imagine her having to coddle a man’s feelings for objectifying her. Ew. Howard should have been the single one at the end of the show.

It’s true that Penny didn’t owe anything to Howard, and his flirting was really overzealous. However, based on her track record with dating if he was tall, and had muscles she’d most likely accept that same behavior from him. Which is her preference but gotta point out the double standard.

He needed to hear it

Plot twist, was the first to be married and had kids

✨️Legit gotta be one of the worst EPs of TBBT. Cause why does she need to placate and coddle his hurt feelings after he has repeatedly shown that he is a perverted, misogynistic, shallow, creep. Then when she is actually genuine and nice to him, he takes it to be a romantic moment and goes in for a kiss. 0 EQ, 0 social awareness, 0 social skills, etc. Leonard having HER apologize to him instead of the other way around??? UGH. I've seen video essays on this exact episode, that can explain the issue better than me, so...

But she never did this to Amy, who routinely made unwanted sexual comments/advances and even once touched her boob.

So if He was a 6'2 hunk she'd still find he's behavior repulsive, some of you guys are just daft for free.. once a narrative is placed in front of you, you just down it like cold beer.. She's was being nasty to him cuz he's not her type cuz she def had boyfriend's worse than him

Penny is a selfish bitch and is lucky Howard is a pussy

She is the villain for punching him. Do the gender swap test and see why. Up until then she was doing him a favor and telling him things he needed to hear.

This was a necessary shift for his character arc. Made him a better character after this.

I swr

Penny could have let Howard know her boundaries without being so mean!! People have feelings & he was really hurt - she went too far. 🩵🙏❤️👍💜

Fuck this comment section biased as fucking shit being a pervert is wrong but hurting people’s feelings is wrong too fuck all yall

It literally depends on the guy if u look like a creep u can’t say certain things cause it’ll come off as such but if ur attractive then u can get away with it 💯

She was right

How was penny right?When he ended up with the girl he ended up with

Big bang theory has to be greatest scicom of all time😂

If this show was done in real life penny wouldn't have been friends with the. And when she ran out of money rent instead of Sheldon looking out she would have gotten kicked out

And yet he gets with one of the most beautiful women in the world,yep super realistic.

😂😂😂
