People who make everything sexual?

[Huhyou]

Am I the only person who find people that make everything sexual extremely annoying. It’s so unnecessary. I was having a catch up with a senior manager who called me a minx for wearing very normal tights. I have countless other examples. Ie she has called me naaaaaaughty for having a square of dark choc. She has a very posh cut glasss accent which just carries.

Grow up!

annoying! also it means she isnt having sex

I don't see a minx or being called naughty for chocolate sexual? I see it as a cheeky minx or a cheeky bit of dark chocolate - nothing sexual on either of those?

Minx comment was directly related to seeing me wear tights. Very normal low denier black tights

Funnily enough I know someone who does just this and she definitely isn't getting any! I find it excruciating.

anyone else inwardly (or outwardly) singing the Brassic ‘let’s make it sexual, sexual very very sexual’ song?

Oh yes, I really, really can’t stand this! One of my friends does similar. Turns every conversation towards something sexual. It makes me want to squirm, it seems so immature.

I hate this too. I used to work with a (female) headteacher who was like this and it made me cringe. "Ooh, pack of 3 pens, pack of 3, get it? Ha ha ha.." Oh ffs grow up you eejit.

I think this too! It's the ones not getting any (or not to the standard they'd like maybe) that think about it all the time and have to make everything sexual, I reckon.

Denise Van Outen does that on Gogglebox.

Always lewd comments.

I don't make everything sexual but I am childish enough to giggle over the word erect or erection.

"We need to erect a structure" tee hee hee.

My examples are rubbish but almost everything gets an ooo-er from this person.

Sex is important but it’s just a normal part of life, no need for it to dominate

Possibly a bit of a derail but I have a male gay coworker who seems to think his sexuality and extrovert personality mean he can ask people the most inappropriate and personal sexual questions/ comments usually in front of an audience or says things about himself and everyone laughs along out of fear/ conditioning to be polite/ or because it's he's a stereotype and it's expected.
I think he's doing himself a disservice and it's sad it's his default setting.

I hate anything sexual in general chat. It’s just crude and unnecessary. I really don’t like it. I think it’s bad form for someone to assume others are okay with it.

surely that's some form of sexual harassment. She doesn't know your orientation, or you hers. Surely if it's inappropriate for a bloke to say it to a woman, then it should be inappropriate for a woman to say it to another colleague regardless of their sex.. fairs fair. It's creating a non harmonious environment, its not inclusive, its just ick...

“Sex is important but it’s just a normal part of life, no need for it to dominate”
oh op,domination, you are cheeky.

Ha! I worked with a bunch of women and the most tenuous links were made to turn nothing into something, such as explaining that large box wouldn’t fit in the car- “Yes, it was too big and wouldn’t fit in the car”, cue “Ooh, was it too big” followed by cackles. Lowest level.

I reeeeeeaaly do not like this either, it’s awful.

Bit of a saucy post this, OP. You sound like such a tease 😉

Phoaw!
Did you say,
'chocolate'?
'dark chocolate'?
Phoaw! 😛

I owe my early mastering of the withering look to somebody I used to work with who did this. I did get a lot of practice.

Love that. 😂

Yes totally agree op. Tedious. I work in a team with mostly menopausal women and you’d think that was a bad thing but it’s actually pure joy - realism, humour, vulnerability, support and pragmatism abounds. And absolutely no sex talk - if anything floats near it’s met with the perspective it deserves (usually an eye roll).
