Dear How to Do It,
My loved one and I have been together for six happy years. Here is my (female) problem: He and our gaming friends (all male) have this habit of making gay jokes constantly. They think it is hysterical to just tack some fellatio-related quip onto every. damn. sentence. I’m exaggerating, but it is frequent. I am part of a text chain with these guys, and it is relentless—I rely on my husband to reveal me when we have plans with them because I contain to mute it unless I want to be inundated. These jokes aren’t hateful, per se, but they’re just constantly referencing gay, male-on-male sex, and to me, there often seems to be no discernible punchline. I see and speak to these men (and they are indeed men—we’re well out of our 20s) often and consider games with them to be a huge and rewarding component of my social life. I am the only person in the group who is not a hetero man, and I notice that if I try to say “Enough, already!,” I position to slightly alienate myself, though they’d respect my

Consider a lesbian going to work in a shop owned by another dyke. The owner starts giving the employee hugs that feel like something more than just friendly. The employee tell the boss that she feels uncomfortable with the touching and wants to keep everything professional. Suddenly, her hours get cut back. Not as many shifts in a week. Is that sexual harassment? Sure sounds like it could be a pretty good case.
How about a gay dude who keeps complimenting his straight, male coworker’s physique, asking him what gym he goes to, telling him how good his pants look. The direct guy politely but clearly tells his gay colleague that he’s not interested in discussing his workouts or his pants, and he just wants to do his job.
