Is it appropriate for co-workers to talk about sex or sexual inuendos?

Question

My boyfriend was telling me about one of his female co-workers and she was inquiring about his package size. I don't think thats very appropriate and I told him so, but he stated that she just wanted to know because she heard that black men are well endowed and she wanted to know if he was? I don't feel threatended by her in any way but I just got irritated. I don't go around asking my male co-workers how big their cock is.

Answer 1

WAAAAAYYYYY out of line.
Your worst fears are about to be realized if you don't make a point for him to call attention to his female co-worker and remind her that this is NOT appropriate.

Flattering?
Yes.
Proper business conversation?
Hell, no!

She is obviously hitting on him.
He is obviously being a guy, enjoying the innuendo (I know I would - but it is still not something that should be talked about...especially between opposite sex co-workers).

If I were you, I'd smell a rat and read him the riot act: either he gives you FULL reassurance that this kind of conversation will stop or he can go shopping for a new girlfriend.

Answer 2

I think he is talking a little too much to co workers about his personal life, people in the work place will always be like that but I personally wouldn't feel comfortable if my husband told me something like, I would ask my husband not to discuss that topic at work especially with opposite sex.

Answer 3

It's called sexual harrassment in the workplace. Most places donot accept this type of behavior because it is very unprofessional and inappropriate. If it does bother your boyfriend he needs to talk to someone in human resources so that actions can be taken against this person.

Answer 4

Thats absolutely inappropriate. and its rude to ask something like that. If someone asked my boyfriend his package size i would go up to that person and have a go at them for asking this. Especially if they are in a relationship. Just imagine if you were married you would feel annoyed if he said to her. Well i certainly would.

Answer 5

She's nasty! You don't say whether or not he provided the answer to the question, or if he corrected her on the spot. If he didn't correct her then he's encouraging her; she'll keep doing it and he'll quit telling you about it. Somebody needs to tell her how to act right, and it should have been your boyfriend. If he didn't, then tell him you'll be happy to set the record straight for her!

Answer 6

Not appropriate unless it was welcomed by the other party and/or nobody overheard. That's way off limits in the workplace.

Answer 7

Something like that is not proper to say to someone if they're going out with someone else. It is ok to talk about sex and stuff like that at work, just as long as there is nothing agressive about it, *like what that hootchie said to your boyfriend about his stuff*. Tell him he don't need to be talking to that girl like that anymore, and if you ever find out that he does you slap that boy upside his head.

Answer 8

Beat that bitches a$$ thats your man , and no co-worker should even go there about something so personal!

Answer 9

With sexual harassment being what it is in the workplace these days it is odd for someone to behave that way.

Answer 10

you are going to be able to desire to declare on your co-worker: "might you ideas if I stab myself interior the attention with you pencil? it somewhat is the only way i will sidestep becoming to be comatose from having to hearken to you drone on and on." Then basically attain for his or her pencil. they're going to run until now you are going to be able to desire to stab your self. If, in spite of the shown fact that, they do no longer run away, you will might desire to circulate by using with it and stab your self interior the attention besides. otherwise they're going to easily save attempting to start conversations with you. you comprehend i'm stunning.
