FYI, harrassment laws tend to focus on the how the victom interpreted it or felt about it. The intentions of the person commiting the harrasment are more relevant when determing how that person should be dealt with. [ Whether this is a good thing is subject to another debate, but that's the way it works right now. ]
I think it would be better to point out that some people may find it offensive than to let it slide. That is, better to find out now in a forum like this than getting disciplined at work for a similar incident later on.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
