Always a joke, locker room talk, boys will be boys, etc… don’t any of these people grow beyond about 12.

Were they using state resources for this? I bet there are regulations forbidding personal use of state computers, and especially viewing or sending sexually explicit images using state-owned devices.

And I’m sure that there is at least one in this discussion that has never talked "locker room talk: among buddies?
If you say not, you’re a damn liar. Even in the 50’s I heard talk between boys in elementary school that I’d never heard, but hell yes, I participated also. My sister who teaches elementry school, said she has never heard such language coming from even younger students as time has passed.
So, all you that are casting the first stone, you’re all a bunch of hypocrites. I admit that even today, I hear, ‘locker room talk’ among males, females and it’s at the places i contract my skills to.

Here’s some “locker room” talk: You’re fucked sideways motherfucker.

Well I’d argue most heterosexual guys talk like this about strip club women because that’s kind of what it’s all about in strip clubs and usually encouraged by the women. Granted you can argue and I’ll agree some may be forced to be there. And on a similar but lighter note folks that pose for porn of their own will should be allowed and folka should be able to watch that do so of their own will.

If he believes that’s an excuse, let him resign his position and get a job as a locker-room attendant.

Then we’ll talk.

Specific venue of bad behavior here is not as important as the vacuousness of the defense: “I did what every real man does in a locker room (while sweaty, huffing, athletic, manly, naked, etc.), but I was a younger boy then (56), and I’m a big responsible man now (59).”

This is true too. I mean, all the other stuff is bad, but that text just isn’t something to resign over. If he had just said “oh go fuck yourselves and grow up…men talk dirty privately from time to time and so do women” and left it at that, it leaves the moralizers to look silly with their moralizing. Instead, he, like they all do, just dug the hole deeper by spewing idiocy. Like they say…it’s not the crime but the cover up that gets ya.
