I've never understood when guys will so casually make a remark about a girl who they'll see walking by or make jokes about sex like nothing. At my job, when it is just several guys working on something (like today) it annoys me when they'll so easily make cracks about a female co-worker or something. I don't see how people can so casually say things regarding that matter.

Am I the only one who thinks this is stupid? I'd like to hear other opinions on this.

It's a little tacky. I never participate, as it conflicts with my morals but my negative feelings about women make me less than sympathetic to the subject of said jokes.

That's why I fucking hate the whole virgin/incel shit. I was once ostracised at work, where other men constantly prattled about their sexual feats, about their desire to bone practically every girl walking by... I refused to engage in that disgusting practice of theirs and as a result they started hating me because I wasn't one of them! I'm fucking lucky it was only a summer job I quit soon, but such a perspective of working for many years when being exposed to all kinds of sexual innuendo really makes me cringe.

My old shift supervisor used to pull this shit on me all the time. When we were in the front lobby (signing in and grabbing our equipment for the day), he'd signal with his eyes and nod his head in the direction of a woman leaving and would be like "You think you could take her ThinMan?". And I'd be like "Of course" but would be thinking "fuck that shit". I think my co-workers knew I was "different". They never said anything to imply it, but they never tried to include me in any topics of vulgarity either.

I do hate it. But I don't know if I'm right to. I guess I mostly hate it because it seems like cheating. Like I've been told my whole life that male sexual desire is predatory and demeaning and evil, but the same rules don't apply for other people.

I don't like it either. It's not something my male friends ever did on a common basis though. But I remember one guy at a party who kept making crude statements and a friend ended up telling him to shut up. It was just not the kind of things that was considered to be funny, and coming from a guy no one knew, you don't know if he's joking or not etc.

But I don't like crude people anyway, women or men. I find that utterly disgusting.

You are not the only one, it pisses me off big time.
