True but it’s even more tone deaf when the sales bros/Mad Men aren’t even woke enough to realize what they’re doing outside the lockerroom.

- newswasboring 7y agoYeah but saying it to me (a male) would still be tone deaf, right? There are no locker rooms even in locker rooms these days. All I'm saying is, it being in front of me is disgusting enough.
- snagglegaggle 7y agoWhy is that? Are you uncomfortable with men expressing their sexuality? Or perhaps you see strippers as abused and taken advantage of? I personally think stripclubs arre a waste of money, but I know femenists that would take exception to either of those above.
- newswasboring 7y agoI'm not afraid or uncomfortable with expressions of sexuality but a boardroom is hardly an appropriate place for it. I don't understand the argument that just because something is a normal part of life it somehow becomes ok to talk about it anywhere. Taking a shit is a normal part of life, that doesn't make it ok to discuss your weekly bowl movements in the board room. In different social settings there are different levels of comfort between people. You can be ok with strip clubs, there are perfectly valid opinions for and against them, but I come to a board room to discuss business, not your sexuality.
- snagglegaggle 7y agoIf it was the topic of the board meeting, definitely not appropriate, but otherwise it's just the conversation was not meant for you. Can you imagine the abuse I'd catch if I complained about overhearing women talk about their periods? Or, to make it more fair, planning some kind of hypersexualized bachelorette party.
