  Clearly you did not. > If hula hooping women make you uncomfortable It wasn't women hula hooping made someone feel uncomfortable. It was men "gawking" at the women hula hooping, that made Julie Horvath feel uncomfortable. I hope you understand the difference. > If hula hooping women make you uncomfortable, that's unfortunate, but also totally your problem. Ditto breastfeeding and suchlike. Tangentially related--another key point you're missing, this is an office. No one should have to feel uncomfortable at the workplace, because the office is for people to work and be productive, not hula hoop. Things like hula hooping (I'm guessing), yoga, tai chi, Zumba, etc, are there to improve worker productivity. If these programs run counter to that and actually hinder productivity by making some employees feel uncomfortable, then those programs may not be the right fit for the workplace.

    > No one should have to feel uncomfortable at the workplace I think you're wrong about that. What about religious fundamentalists uncomfortable with gay people? What about conservatives uncomfortable with breastfeeding? What about chauvinists uncomfortable with women in leadership positions? There is no right to 'not feel uncomfortable'. There is no right to 'not to feel offended'. What you have to do is choose who you are going to offend.
