Dear Sketchy Tutor Co-ordinator,

A couple of months ago, you told me that my students were lucky to have a 'gorgeous exotic tutor,' and I tried to diplomatically express that I didn't enjoy being referred to in that way--"I think it would be better to say that they're lucky to have such a brilliant and dedicated tutor!!"

When I spoke to you yesterday, you referred to my voice as 'sexy.' Maybe I was being too diplomatic before, so this time I will say frankly that I don't appreciate language that is about my appearance or that has a sexual undertone to it from my supervisors or colleagues, and I find it inappropriate.

I would appreciate if our interactions could stay strictly and unambiguously professional in the future, and please be more aware of the effect of your words on your female collegues. I think that in most ways you've been brillant to work with, and tutoring the epi class has been a fantastic experience for me. I've really enjoyed it, and I thank you for giving me the opportunity to do so, and look forward to continuing to work with you in the future.

Sincerely,
Imagynne

I hope you know that I did not intend to upset you with any comment I made... I am well known as someone who speaks what he thinks and yes I can be a bit too frank sometimes, which can be annoying to some.

I apologise and promise you wont hear anything of that nature from me ever again :)

I hope you are not mad at me! My intention was not a bad one...

Take care Imagynne.

Sketchy Tutor Co-ordinator,

What you did is actually called "sexual harrassment," not 'speaking what you think.'

PS Fuck you.
