From the Huffington Post and AOL, news story by Tori Richards:
Attorney Steven Eggleston was suspicious when his boss pressed him to attend a weekend male retreat, but refused to tell him what would be happening there, saying participants were sworn to secrecy.
So he did a Google search and found out why.
Men would be holding hands and walking naked, blindfolded, through a forest. Then they would sit nude in groups of 30 to 50, passing around a wooden dildo and giving lurid details of their sexual history. Eggleston said he found out that the men will grab each other’s penises if they wish.
Eggleston didn’t like what he read and refused the invitation. Now he’s suing the firm and his bosses, saying he was badgered, yelled at and ultimately had his pay slashed to zero for not attending the retreat, held at a Santa Barbara, Calif., mountain campground and sponsored by the ManKind Project, according to a lawsuit filed in Orange County Superior Court.
Frankly, I’ve never understood the purpose of these corporate retreats where dudes go to “bond”. I’m pretty sure they are expensive as hell. Why would a company spend thousands of dollars to send its male workers to a resort in the woods to sit naked in a circle and hold each others wing wangs and share personal stories when you could give them gas money, some flip-flops and a bottle of oil and send them to the Arboretum or the nekkid beach in Edmonds for pennies on the dollar?

Seems far more cost effective.
