It would be a waste of breath for our policies to say to a future offender "don't do what would offend a reasonable woman". Think about who that is and whether they will come to the right conclusion about what we want. Plus it doesn't tell our staff a policy they can all agree on, as far as enforcement. If we write out a list of behaviors, rather than outcomes in your feelings, that will get results. We don't want to declare our attendees the guardians of each other's feelings, since if they have to be told and forced, they're not going to understand.
