Ask HN: Being a male how do you deal with sexist comments about female coworkers
I&#x27;ve worked at both big companies and startups. In both worlds, I&#x27;ve had some of my co-workers often make sexist comments in one form or other about female co-workers.<p>Should I just be dismissive about this as locker room talk? I generally try to focus on the task at hand and ignore these comments, but when they mention that they would hire&#x2F;promote&#x2F;applaud a female coworker because of her physical features, I don&#x27;t know if they are joking or really mean what they say.<p>I&#x27;ve been in the industry for only a couple of years and just wondering if this is the norm and how to set my attitude to adjust to this.
