"What would you do?"
Well, I definitely wouldn’t out myself as a knuckle dragging neanderthal that can’t get over my own immaturity long enough to not make everything about me and my misplaced deep rooted insecurities.

Fun fact: most men that like to occasionally wear women’s clothes are in fact, not gay.

OH MY DEAR GOD! I am sickened at what I am reading here!
People acting all offended to this sort of stuff are almost always the ones caught fucking the goat

and what are you implying by this?
this is obviously on a small vessel since the chief engineer is sharing a room with another crewmember and pardon me all to FUCK that I would not want to be on the vessel the size of a tug with a man or men who are doing weird sexual shit aboard…I would be especially aghast if I was directly confronted with it. Maybe only seeing the unmentionables is not so terrible but if you have to see a man in lingerie even if in a stateroom is over the line to me. Some things are best left off the boat but if they come aboard they’d better be kept very well hidden from anyone’s knowledge.
so you can throw rotten vegetables at me all you want but I am an old man who came from a different planet than the one I find myself trapped on today. On my home planet, ships were manned by men who had girly pictures posted and nothing else. We all smoked, occasionally drank and swore heavily in eachother’s presence. We also told bawdy jokes about fornicating with women and enjoyed ourselves as we did. It was a crude planet but since we were all suffering our mutual fates together in our ship we got along well enough and sometimes even managed to have a good time in the process. there were no special snowflakes who had to be protected…you either were one of us or you weren’t and those who weren’t had no place out there on the bid bad ocean!

Sounds like you’re in need of a safe space snowflake.

I’d take a crossdresser who could do their work competently but got weird on their own time over a former boss who used to drop trow, skivvies included, to his ankles to piss in a urinal. That shit was awkward as hell.

I remember my first ship as 3rd where the messman and pantryman/utility shared a room. The messman was gay but the pantryman was not. While in the Philippines the pantryman got a bit weirded out when he walked in the room and the messman was getting humped by a Filipino longshoreman.
On the way back to the States I was sitting on deck after lunch one afternoon and the wiper comes out and we start to talk about stuff. Somehow the conversation touched upon the messman. The wiper turns to me and says the messman is offering blow jobs for $10 a pop. After a few moments he says, “ya know, he’s not half bad”. I didn’t know quite what to say and just got up and went inside.
I know a bit off topic.
