Deliberately Inappropriate Communication (D.I.C.)

Description: Most men are familiar with the dangerous effect that women, or at least their body parts, can have on a man’s judgment. Most times all this will cost you is a few drinks or an unfulfilling marriage, but in the delicate world of office politics it may result in an increased workload or even the loss of your position. It is vital that you stand your ground and at least present the illusion that you are not ruled by your sexual desire. The first step in empowering yourself is identifying the subtle sexual innuendos that permeate any inter-gender conversation. Some call this “Sexual Harassment.” We at OMFG call it “Deliberately Inappropriate Communication,” D-I-C or DIC. Did you know that most cases of dissatisfaction in the workplace can be traced back to bad DIC? It is difficult for men to sense when they are receiving DIC, since giving good DIC is often the key to a man’s own social empowerment. The key to DIC mastery is to understand when the DIC is in your favor and when the DIC will hurt you. And if a man loses control of his DIC in front of a women, the results can be messy. Watch in this next scene how Mandi uses Andy’s DIC against him.
