Depending on the circumstances, that might be considered sexual harassment. Seems to me in easy solution might be before the e-mails to the company president and ask if there something he might be able to do about it.

Re: Offensive emails

Certainly it may be considered sexual harassment depending on who it is from, who it is directed to, and the content. If the e-mails are condoned by the employer, then the employer may be liable for damages. If you wish to discuss the matter, please contact me directly at 619 222-3504.
