I’ve got no problem with them, but these are obviously kids who grew up in a different age than me, and it shows, I know what could seem a joke to me could come off different to them. Especially this being In the trades and the type of jokes we make here. I don’t want to make anyone uncomfortable, we’re all trying to just get through the day after all

Edit: I have learned, they used to be female, transitioned to male. (So trans-masc? I’m probably messing that up) Lesbian, and non-binary, thankfully they brought it up which was very helpful as I wasn’t sure if it was appropriate to ask

    You’re not likely going to say by accident something they haven’t heard before, or to offend them in a new and novel way

    Not OP, but you underestimate my foot in mouth capacity.

    20 years ago, my sister was dating a jock. Real body builder type. Probably a bigger musclehead than most pro-wrestlers.

    What I was trying to convay is that we should make a superhero costume for him to wear, and make a comic book out of it.

    What was percieved instead is that he should run around town and suck everybodys nuts in his mouth for their approval.

    I DARE you to try to connect how that came out so wrongly worded.
