Making sexual jokes in mixed company consisting of your friends is not necessarily offensive -- that's up to the friends, and your may know them well enough to know they won't be offended. But in public, I think it's different."
There's nothing offensive about sex. But most apologists are hypocrites and liars and have hidden motives.
Secular humanists and people who are interested in human rights are offended by public and rude displays of religion, such as the Hijab which is worn by Muslims. Most Muslims will tell you publically that they were it for fashion, and all these other excuses. Talk to them in private, like the natural anthropologist that I am, and they will tell you that being covered up is a symbol of modesty and, among other things, that Western woman who don't cover themselves up are evil.
The public rhetoric versus the private agenda are always two different things for the Conservative and his radical feminist counterpart.
"To his credit, the guy was remorseful once confronted."
It is a pathetic society if a person has to be "remorseful" for telling a joke. Comedians and jokesters were one of the groups that suffered under Nazi Germany (don't Godwin-bash me).
The type of person who is offended by humour, which is so important in a civilized society, deserves to be punished. Is this woman who complained about humour going to be fired because of her bad attitude and behavior?
People who complain about other people usually have a lot of hypocrisy and psychological problems. I wonder if this woman will accept responsibility and quit her job with an apology for all the trouble she has caused.
Unfortunately narcissists and bullies almost never admit when they are wrong, and they are often persuasive and manipulative enough to game the system in their favour.

There should be no tolerance for intolerance.
