it’s not arbitrary… there’s this whole thing with sexual harassment and a hostile workplace that makes porn a bad idea for a large diverse team….
some reactions definitely go too far but it’s not arbitrary
You make a good point, it"s definitly part of the outline of that social wound.
Some people are so fragile and the topic that they consider mere exposure as an attack or harrasement.
And whoever is most fragile seems to the decider for everyone, of what is forbidden.
Really a powerful position to be in ...
let me guess, you're not a woman.
The fact that someone's gender makes a difference is part of that "social wound" they mentioned.
of course it makes a difference. that's how power dynamics work. i think it's very rich to complain about people being fragile while demonstrating peak fragility that you can't just show porn to people who don't consent to it.
Where did I advocate for open porn in the workplace? My only point was that it's a sign of societal issues that there would be a gender based difference in how people see the issue. That's not anti-woman, it's just pointing out broader issues.
i didn't say you were doing it. i was talking about the comment you referenced. seemed obvious.
