It's only huge because it has been made public by a large amount of medias. If you have ever worked in any companies, you'd know the shit going on at any layers.

It's a huge deal for underlings who have to obey their masters. It's not a huge deal for masters who make the rules.

If you allow your employer to control your sexuality you are not fully human.

I mean—certainly if it turns into the kind of situation where the higher-ups can’t look the other way. It probably becomes a problem as soon as your supervisors have to think about it. It definitely becomes a problem as soon as it becomes their problem, or a distraction from what everybody’s there to do.

By the time it’s public knowledge and reflecting on the company, yes, that’s a failure—and the failure of discretion is probably closer to the board’s clammy little hearts than any particular fluids (or allegations of favoritism) that may have been swapped along the way.
