“I’ve never had a conversation like this at work,” she said.

“It’s OK,” I said, “we’re in the cone of safety. We have to talk about this stuff.”

The “stuff” to which I refer is human genitalia and the “conversation” we were having was one in which we were trying to decide which photos can stay on mycolts, and which needed to come down.

Ahh the newfound joys of community management!

While offending photos are the exception, they are taking an inordinate amount of our time as we attempt to establish more specific guidelines for ourselves.

“OK, so speedos are OK, but if they’re wet and transparent, then…”

“…if the photo is obiously taken in a strip club, then…

It’s a dirty job, but someone has to do it!
