Actually, its called respecting the rights of other people to hold different opinions, worship in other religions and have different shades of skin color.

Well however you want to word it is up to you. But people in leadership positions should be a good example. This is the same crap that gets Trump in trouble all the time. And most people don't tolerate that very well either.

I enjoy sh!t-talking as much as the next pilot, and know the difference between a good-natured ribbing and a joke with ill-intent behind it. That being said:
1. When you are promoted to leadership roles you represent your company in both an external and internal way.
2. Using humor is a two edge-ed sword. It can boost morale, but if taken too far it can just as easily destroy morale.
3. If you haven't figured it out already, discussing sex, religion, or politics at work is akin to walking on thin ice. There are plenty of different conversation topics on which everyone can find common ground. (Talk about work, work, work, CONTRACT, work, work...)
4. If you endorse such behavior & language, then I suggest you use that humor in your next interview. Let us know how far that takes you.
Finally 5.) What the H3LL are you doing talking favorably about such discussions on a PUBLIC web-forum?!?! I've seen people fired in this industry, at this level, for what can be traced back to them on-line. It's your life, I'm not going to stop you from publishing ill-advised opinions online, and you might get away with it, but eventually that risky behavior (like continuing an approach beyond the MAP when nothing is in sight) eventually will come back to bite you.

You probably also like, no clapping Sundays in youth sports, participation awards, and pink drinks from Starbucks. Get over it, "just because something offends you, doesn't mean it's offensive".
