How do you respond?
Scenario #2: You are a middle-aged man who works in an office. A coworker whose desk is next to yours makes a habit of cornering you one-on-one and sharing his latest joke. Most of the jokes are aimed at women and have sexual overtones. Initially, you try to humor him but you are growing increasingly uncomfortable with this situation. You try to avoid him, but it is not working. You feel that you must say something to him or your supervisor. How do you respond?

Explanation / Answer
2) We live in our culture where there are many people who believe that it’s natural to make fun of women, so a joke about it is always considered funny. as that person has been constantly cracking jokes on women, I would respond in his own way by making counter conversations on positive things about women’s will give him positive comments and make him realize about his positive attitude towards everybody in the company and these types of jokes doesn’t suit his tounge.i will support him in the way that ”I think your words do not have the same intention in your heart and as I know you from the past few years you are the person of good heart who respects every human being. Women are not made to be a part of our jokes, these human beings deserves to be respected from our heart.”
