[div style="font-style: italic;"]Speaking of inappropriate comments, guys talk amongst themselves very inappropriately as well when they're at work (when no other females are around). (generally speaking) They talk about girls and what they would "do" to them and such and compare they're spouses/partners/wives, etc. [/div] [div style="font-style: italic;"] [/div] The reason why I say this is because MrPL has worked in several all male work environments where at least one guy is the perv and he tells me some of the things he has heard.
typical male environment but its a culture. For example if you don't 'tag along' and play the game. You'll get ostracized by the group for being 'sensitive' and the gay jokes start, not because you're gay, but that you don't think they way the group talks about women is appropriate. Its all a test of masculinity and manhood. Then if you become a target its no use to defend yourself, you are just confirming to them that you aren't 'masculine enough' the label is already in place and the 'guys' will pounce on you for it, for as long as you are working at the place or around these people.
