Forgive me, I'm not good at writing stories. Like the rest of you. But I thought this site might find this interesting.
At my job, a assistent was helping find some paperwork. A female "butch" lesbian officer approached, and started talking about her ex-lesbian lover. The assistent stood over the desk with vivid fasnation. And I noticed that she wasn't wearing a bra, her nipple's were erect, and If she was any closer to me. My head would be laying agianst her breast. I quickly turned away, but not before she noticed I was embaressed.
She promptly runs to the B\R about 15 ft' away, and within 30 seconds The female officer and I. Heard her moan twice, And then the assisstent comes out of the B\R. And the female officer state's, "She must have had fun in there". Later on in the night, I heard the female officer tell the assistent that he "Knows".
(Earlier in the shift, I had the female evening supervisor. Tell me that if anyone give's me problems. Let her know. <I didn't say anything about the earlier incident.> Later on, My supervisor told me that some of the woman had some behaivor problems, and let her know if anything happens. Since I don't normally work in this area. I'm not stating anything. But that was a very uncomfortable experience. And I wonder what ever to happened to the old fashioned notion of keeping things in the "private" went too.)
The rest of the shift, I heard the officer and the assistent talking about different
playful violence to thier various "private" body part's. I thought about telling the officer that I don't want to "work" in that area. Ever agian, But that would lead to a investigation. So I will keep my mouth shut. And refuse to work in that area for another non-personal reason.

So, er, what's the problem again?

Yes, I guess I don't see the specific problem either. It isn't a case of sexual harassment, as the sexual behavior wasn't being directed toward you (it was in fact only accidentally noticed by you). If anything, your supervisor is now apparently going out of the way to make sure that no one on either side reacts badly to the little incident; standard office damage control.
I know that some people find any sign of sexuality in the workplace very uncomfortable. I've worked in enough casual offices and such, I guess, that it doesn't bother me as much. My main concern is not to accidentally offend others, so my general rule is not to initiate any sexual discussion, and never to exceed the level of intimacy (either in humor or seriousness) being discussed.
I guess the most important question is whether you feel that your co-workers were deliberately trying to make you feel uncomfortable, or just being themselves. If the answer is "just being themselves", then they really weren't doing anything wrong.
We're way beyond the point in evolution at which sex should be a "dirty little secret". Sexuality is part of the human experience, and IFM is all about not hiding that part of yourself away. *cough* Now, if you'll excuse me, these cheap megaphones run off of AA batteries, and I think I'm almost out of time . . .

That sums my position. pretty much. I don't mind sexuality if its done in the right setting. (and a "correctional" setting is not a place to display sexuality.)
Being from the Midwest, sexual interests are considered a private matter. And unless you come from the area. (It really won't make sense to you.)
As to saying anything. My wife told me to stay quiet, and ignore the lesbians. So I will.

Ah. I grew up in the Midwest. Very familiar with the way many people are there. That explains a lot.
I grew up with parents who, although they outwardly seemed to fit the standard Midwestern mold, eventually encouraged me to be, do, and feel whatever I wanted. I think they did this not because they were particularly liberal, but because they saw that as I was entering my teenage years I was having a harder-than-usual time adjusting and opening up to others. My parents didn't have enough reason to suspect it at the time, but it was probably the earliest signs of my bipolar condition.
Ironically, I think in the end this act transformed them into more open-minded, liberal people, but I've always seen the act itself as the ultimate expression of familial love. They basically set aside their own cultural biases for the good of their son, for which I will always be grateful (and for which I never got a chance to thank them).

Rampant lesbianism in the workplace is a big problem and can leave casual bystanders traumatised and sometimes scarred for life. When you go for a job interview, your better off asking how many lesbians work there and how rampant they are.

I quite agree, and I speak from experience: at my work place they have been known to form herds stampeding down the hallways, eyes rolling, when unduly aroused. This is a very real danger to the unwary male, who can suddenly find himself trodden under foot.

You all are just jealous that I saw action, And you didn't.
Kidding aside, I was raised with personal boundries between private\public life. Since everybody here is pretty much a pervert in public. I'd guess, it's pretty hard to understand a "closet" pervert.

That is why most people move out of the midwest, and go to the "blue" state's. Leaving the prude's and closet perverts.

Nice post msnevil I'm glad you didn't take offence, Minor cultural differences are quite funny whether there between different age groups or geographical. Sienfeld was largely based on them. I like the way that some people in the U.S. are very prudish yet they'd marry their 12 year old cousin altho thats texas isn't it. I must admit that between L.A. and New York the U.S. is just a big blob to me really, even tho I know people who live in the blob. I think it's pretty fair to say that of most people who live in the U.S, that if their within driving distance of the nearest Walmart their quite happy.
