“Neat.”
I respond by hoping I’m a girl in this scenario. Anon forgot to specify.
Look at the image
Anon also forgot to lead with “be me”…
“Sounds like we have something in common.”
“Me too!”
Shrug is the only correct response at work. Or maybe “that’s nice” to be more polite.
Is that polite though? I get that it isn’t explicitly rude but I pretty much only use that phrase as short hand for “why are you talking about this you fucking weirdo?” I think it’s subtly rude at best.
Most politeness is about rephrasing rudeness in a subtle way. What OP’s fictional coworker did in this fictional story is explicitly rude as it assumes the worst from meeting a new person, the most appropriate response would be something that is subtly, but noticeably, rude.
You need to say it slowly. “Okaaaay”
Maximum devastation
If a team lead, sight unseen, just tells you their sexual preference without any context or follow-up then yeah that’s fucking weird and they’re a weirdo.
Yeah definitely, just saying I’m not sure polite is the right label for a response with that kind of subtext.
Or “noted” or just “ok”
A thespian you say? Why, I was in a production of Hamlet myself!
E tu, brute?
Thespians? Aren’t those illegal in 7 states?
Omg if they wear the clothes off the opposite gender
“Good for you, but what does that have to do with the job?”
And by job I mean my penis.
My man. This is not the way.
Hi Lesbian, I’m Anon.
“me too”
Final answer
Sorry that you feel obligated to mention this based on your past experiences. I hope our interactions are professional. Please let me know if I step over a line… my jokes are sometimes a little off but never misogynistic maybe a little dark, but I work on it.
With that out of the way … my Name is Anon, I am happily married. Now… let’s Beginn =]
What prompted that disclosure? Could she smell the horniness emanating from Anon? Did he, as he noticed she was a woman, give off a vibe like a starving cartoon wolf imagining the main character as comprised entirely of sausages?
I believe he started vibrating 15,000 Hertz. A totally normal response in the presence of all women, not the sign of a weirdo at all.
“Hell yeah I like chicks too!” go for a high five
“THAT JUST MEANS SHE LIKES WHAT I LIKE”

Anon must address her as “Lesbian” for now until eternity, considering that’s all she is.
