I concede I didn't really make my point clear due to poor wording. What I mean is: I don't think dick-jokes are inherently wrong for the workplace. I think context is the key. I worked at a Fortune-500 where they were absolutely not acceptable, but I tend towards places where they are acceptable.

Heh, not at all. I'm a very private person when it comes to sex, but I'm also sex-positive.

Fair enough.
> I don't think dick-jokes are inherently wrong for the workplace.
It's probably about as appropriate as discussing religion or politics. It's certainly possible, but there is a lot of risk that toes will get stepped on eventually, even if nobody says they were offended.
I'm pretty open about things, but I'm also open to the idea that people don't always appreciate sharing.
