Yawn. This isn't unique to OO, airlines, or aviation.

My point was that this wasn't really relevant to airlines or aviation. It's more relevant to low-end blue-collar employment situations. The LDS folks in SGU certainly did not condone that sort of behavior.
If this was happening in a cockpit, perhaps different story.

Sexual harrassment in a workplace isnt' "locker-room talk," and isn't trivial. Whether it's a cockpit, or a warehouse or a government agency, it makes no difference.
I once interviewed for a government supervisory position, and the interview hinged on my resonse to a sexual harassment scenario. There are many ways to get one's self in trouble on the job, but from an HR perspective, and from a legal entanglement perspective that can become a big, fat, expensive lawsuit, sexual harassment is right at the top of the pile.
Such talk does not belong in the workplace, or the locker room.

One of the ways to better appreciate or empathize with someone in this situation is to make it personal. How would you feel if it was your daughter receiving this kind of treatment and then her employer reacting (or in this case, failing to react) the way they did? Too many people, for far too long have given a pass to verbal abuse, sexual or otherwise. It’s not that hard to be civil and professional in the workplace, and by extension, it should be the same in any personal contact, whether face to face, online, anonymous or not.
