Odds are a 25 year old in HR (the average age in the HR department is way above that anyway) has a better sense of the culture and trends than a typical line pilot. We pilots have a very narrow window of what we deem as acceptable social norms. There's no problem with that, but just realize that the rest of the world doesn't share that mindset.
