[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My straight, white, moderate DH works in an extremely diverse office space. Half the employees are POC, a solid third are gay. He has taken plenty of friendly ribbing for the last two years, but on Friday and yesterday one gay male manager (who is a known bully) referred to my DH as a twink. For those not in on gay slang it is a derisive term to describe smaller, clean cut men. Sometimes it is used as a term of sexual interest akin to calling a woman a sexpot. Either way it is wholly offensive. Does he have a sexual harassment claim? [/quote] Only if it prevented his advancement or ability to do his job.[/quote] SOOO not true. I think your DH should document it with the HR, but just know that if this is one and only incident they might not do anything. However, if it continues or if others complain, they'll likely act.
