Yep, it has more to do with team dynamics and authority levels than anything related to sexism.

It's a simple fact that usually in groups the majority rules. The majority wanted to watch baseball, not Friends.

Sure, but you can be a majority that's a tyranny, or a majority that occasionally is more accommodating.

Yup, and it sucks and I would personally not be part of that kind of circle. Ofcourse in a work environment this is hard to avoid. That's why "Culture fit" is stressed so much in recruiting.

This is unrelated, but I don't really get why one would want to watch TV with colleagues. It's not like you're productive when doing it. The requirement for the infamous "culture fit" is lower if you don't require that all coworkers are 100% socially compatible with each other. Then again, I'm from Europe.

Sure. Neither one is about sexism, though.
