You have to have some rules and structure but I think a lot of this comes down to how people are treated and respected underneath all those things. We made and do still make a lot of what would be classed as sexist and inapproprite jokes and we have had (and do have a woman) working with us. But because the baseline is a place of being valued and respected then it's only seen for what it is - light hearted stupid banter. Difficulty is it's hard to measure when something is banter and when it becomes derogatory. You can feel it but it's hard to articulate.

Policing and army is a big strong and masculine man business ,unless a woman is masculine enough she have nothing to do there ,unless it’s administration or medicine.I have left few good jobs in the past just because woman’s was in the wrong roles,and I never hide this ,by the way office is pure girls job so if a man is not a girl enough he have nothing to do there this is my personal opinion,and I go to graveyard with it.

 

That's right you tell them and good for you right! My job is an office role so you're saying I'm not a man in the above? Even in the two comments you have made on this thread I'd say your strong and misguided opinions are a lot of what causes issues. I'm assuming you think yourself a big tough real man? If you are then it asks the question why are you so desperate to prove to the world that you are?

Did I say that gentle (girly) man , is bad? I said that office is not a place for a toxic masculine man like me😉,so as battle field it’s not for a gentlemen,sorry you feel insulted ,I believe you are business man, don’t worry business is for real tuff guys. By the way I never insulted or hurth any woman in my life, I just quatly keep distance or move away . I did not want prove anything, opinion prove nothing, we just have it.

I was standing around while my truck tyres were being changed.

A young fellow came in and started talking to the fitter, his mate I guessed .

The walk in guy regaled all his exploits of the previous night with a woman they both seemed to know.

I won’t go into details of course, but I was disgusted with the misogynistic language he was spewing out, and I’m sure if she had been there to overhear, she would have booted him sharply in the balls.

The boss is an old friend of mine, and when I went to settle up in his office I told him what had happened out in the bays, and he assured me he’d sort it out.
