What should I do with a workmate who patronizes me about my sex life?

Question

I'm a single English teacher living overseas, and twice I've had workmates who annoy the **** out of me by telling me that they enjoy wild sex in the shower when the kids are at home, and they lock the door and other stuff like that. It spooks me that they are thinking of me. Ewwww. Then they ask me why I'm not married. Like it's any of their business?

Answer 1

Tell him/her politely that you don't want to hear their sexual escapades.

Sounds like they are looking for a 3-some though and wondering if you are interested.....

Answer 2

Next time they talk to you like that be honest and say that its inappropriate conversation and that it makes you feel uncomfortable. IF they make a smart remark back just answer by saying 'hey im just letting you know how i feel if you can't handle it then don't talk to me no more" and walk away, there is no need to talk to that person ever again.

Answer 3

If they ever speak to you in sexual way that makes you uncomfortable, it can be considered sexual harassment. If you feel comfortable enough, you could just talk to them calmly and politely and ask them to not to speak to you about such topics because it makes you uncomfortable. If they don't listen and keep speaking in a sexual way that makes you uncomfortable, I would report them. If they are just discussing their sex life, ask them not to....but if it involves you in some way...report it!

Answer 4

If people brag about sex, it's usually a cover-up for what they don't have. In other words, they are lying! Next time they go on and on about their sex life, roll your eyes and tell them you're so jealous. lol

Answer 5

Sounds like a call to your HR department should clear things up.
