[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a dean for diversity and inclusion call me “Mama” while I was pregnant and who made fun of my pregnant “waddle.” Good times![/quote] If they were Hispanic/Latin calling me Mama I’d be okay with it that’s totally culturally normal for them. I’d feel included. The making fun of the waddle not so much [/quote] Don’t most of us check our “culturally normal” behavior at the door of the workplace? That’s why I say Happy Holidays instead of Merry Christmas, which would be “culturally normal” for me. There are plenty of cultural norms that do not apply to the workplace, like whether it is important to be on time, or whether it’s fine to say “God bless you” when someone sneezes, or “let us pray” before we eat a business lunch.[/quote]
