Celibate is another way to phrase it. But he wasn't into women and he wasn't into men, he wasn't into sex, he was an Ace, no matter what word you use.



It seems like they are needed because people are still struggling with the humanness of people who don't look like them, dress like them, or fuck like them.



Slippery slope from nowhere to nowhere. If they are bigoted people they are already mentally ill to start with and probably making other bad judgements at work.

It doesn't make white males more fearful, maybe less creepy in general. They still don't get it a lot, because people with these attitudes have little insight.

I'm not sure what you're fearful of. Just don't grab someone's ass or call them a racial word.


happy easter :)

Love it here. No, people are not asexual. At most, they are unsuccessful with reproduction. Asexual is a word with a real definition, it’s the ability to reproduce offspring without genetic information from another organism. I don’t know why people make up lies and instantly believe themselves it’s insane.


Yes asexual is a real word, and it does have real definitions.
The word asexual is a homonym.
Homonym - noun: one of two or more words spelled and pronounced alike but different in meaning.

Homonyms are commonly taught in 2nd grade curriculum. So, it's concerning that you weren't aware of that!
This reply is assuming that you were being genuine, and not playing dumb which is a dishonest and manipulative tactic.
And, you already stated your opinion on how much you dislike dishonesty.

The Merriam Webster dictionary lists several definitions of the word asexual. These include:
-not having sexual feelings toward others
-not having or showing a particular sexual identity

I’ve literally had 2 meetings around social justice within a year. I’ve had to take corporate training courses online that spout “white male” privilege. I’ve had engineers stop, apologize, and say “sorry I can’t say that anymore”. People who make $100k a year and are experts in their fields. Yes it does. You haven’t lived my life. When you need to stop working on a multimillion dollar construction project for a 30 minute Skype lecture about black slaves in the 1800s and 1900s with no questions, feedback, or context, you tell me it’s not real. I’ve had to do that. So while I’m trying to focus on the electrical system for enough juice to melt a tank to be safely plotted, installed, tested, you tell me how someone’s inability to get laid is somehow, my fault or problem?


Imagine being so bad at your job that a 30 minute distraction totally derails you

:rofl:

I hate 2022, are the nukes flying ye? The earth has a sickness, a disease on it.


Imagine claiming to be a super smart engineer and not understanding words can have two meanings.

Imagine how after that meeting still denies the validity of a coworker or clients sexual orientation, and doesn't understand how that is part of the problem.

That's why I don't believe those meeting are productive. Punishing a group of people for one person's problem is not effective. The person with the problem has not been corrected.
I think personal accountability would be more effective. Just punish the person who is the problem. A bigot loses their job, and the rest of the workplace carries on more efficiently.

I generally agree that the meetings aren't effective. The thing is, they aren't intended to be effective. They are intended to give the company an out when they get sued for being a hostile work environment. They get to point and say "Look, we made all our employees attend a diversity session".

These companies don't actually give a shit about any of these issues. They are there to make money, and want to spend the absolute minimum to maintain good enough PR that they can avoid being targeted by boycots or sued for being hostile.

Imagining punishing employees over hypothetical people and events that don’t exist and didn’t happen. You live in a delusion.

Why are you so fragile that you think two meetings are a punishment?

Having my time wasted so a random black guy who didn’t even work in my building throw a little hissy fit and leave is a waste of time, money, and perpetuates the entitled mentality that a lot of y’all deserve to die for having. You wanna suck dick go ahead. You wanna touch kids someone will kill you. You come in my work and I’ll knock your teeth out. And more people should. You’re sick.

Mind you you’re the actual bigot with all your “causes”. Like anyone needs YOUR help. What do you do?

Imagine typing this and thinking it makes you sound anything other than fragile and weak.

Wahh, two meetings is a punishment. I am offended!

Wahh, you disagree with me so you're evil and I'll punch you!

Wahh you're the actual bigot!

Grow up bud. Adults don't really care about this stuff. We do the mandatory two meetings a year and then continue doing our important work while maybe being less of a dick. You've wasted orders of magnitude greater amounts of time obsessing over it than they've wasted by having you go to two meetings.

Your whole existence is only possible by people like me. Y’all need to learn your place and quick.
