All of my comments explicitly say harrasment is never okay. I'm unsure how I could be more clear in that regard.

If you abuse, harass, or coerce someone, you should be shown no mercy. Otherwise, leave consenting adults to themselves if they're discrete.

There is NOTHING discreet about what you are suggesting. "Oh, excuse us while we go fuck in the designated fucking place at work while y'all keep working. Be right back for the next meeting in 20 minutes."

That is the exact opposite of discreetness and discretion.

At the same time, this environment puts pressure on people to engage in these activities, and that can lead to harassment.

Honestly, it is not that difficult to leave that stuff outside the office.

Sure but you understand that with some cultures is more likely that this happen ?
