Offended

Today, I was offended. I was at work talking to a fairly respected man about social programs etc and he was telling me about a social program he used to work in many years ago, he said he did modeling on the side, so it was kind of extreme going from one job to the next. I said, "Modeling?" and he said, yes, I was a nude model about 100 pounds ago and then he went on with the conversation. To him, he seemed to be mentioning a statement of fact, but I was floored that he would casually tell me this. I poker-faced my way through the conversation and then went and hid in the back until he left. I told my supervisor what he had said because she could see I was flustered and she seemed like she may have been more amused/disturbed by my reaction than by the fact that this guy just told me openly that he was a nude model. Sometimes, I don't know how to live in this world......
