Would it really have made that much of a difference?

My works holloween party was off the hook debauchery and skin despite the new more corperate ownership...

I am sorry that you have to work under such a prudish yet discrimatoraly purient permisive work enviroment. This double standard is an outrage of the first order.

Perhaps this carefree over the top homosexsual should be made an example of and drug out into the street and fired on the spot to make things right! At the very least HR must get involved and severly repremand this fellow untill he is cowered into submission after all he didn't bring enough thongs for the whole party now did he!

That's soooo tame we had one guy go as a giant vagina with teeth in it.

He told everyone he was his Ex Girlfreind.

Was it his (your) superiors who made that overheard, off-hand comment ... or merely co-workers?
(a) He's gay. That part wasn't rumor. I was unaware of the fact beforehand simply because I don't really know the guy. But the people who told me do know him and it's not a "Psst, I heard he's gay." He's openly gay.

(b) Do I know for sure? No. Was it superiors that I overheard? No. But, judging from what was said directly to me plus the various things I overheard through the day, I got a very clear impression that people who otherwise would have made a complaint (nothing ever happens unless someone complains) hestiated due to him being gay.

That begs the question of why I didn't complain. Fact is, I wouldn't complain either way, I'm just not the file-a-complaint type. Generally, it doesn't offend me particularly much, and my general feeling is that if it's something that's way over the line, someone else will do the complaining for me. Plus, compared to a lot of people, I'm very much the new comer whereas this guy's been with the company almost since it started. I know that shouldn't make a difference, but in reality it does. And the people I overheard throughout the day saying, "Gosh, that could be offensive, but..." were the people who usually do the complaining around here.

So I was surprised when no one made a big deal out of it. I mean hell, our manager had to give us a dress code reminder the day after someone ratted on one of my male coworkers for wearing shorts.

Seeing as how my place of work said "not a drop of fake blood, and no dark makeup" I feel rather jealous of the freedom of GD's workplace. Such is the life of a public desk jockey. Someone actually said "we don't want to scare the kids!"

I really don't care about hairy-ass-revealing costumes and fake boobs showing. I thought it was hilarious when GD told me about it. But I didn't see it so I can't judge, I guess....though I tend to dig over-the-top Halloween freakiness.

Years ago, I went to work as a wrist slasher. Good times.
