Understand I never laugh at nor allow unprofessional behavior in my workplace. Have terminated people for such. But in my personal life?

Maybe too much Monte Python as a kid?

women’s sexual parts. No boob, breasts, vaginas, or other sexual parts.....why does this make men laugh?? I watch a lot of sports shows and when there are no women hosting or involved in the discussions the men always laugh about stupid sexual stuff no matter how old they are. I don’t get it.

Must be rough to grow up with a name like that, I imagine. Maybe it makes you hate all of humanity.
