Yes, it is acceptable for you to express your discomfort. Everyone should be allowed to express their own opinions, and there may be people at the company who are more comfortable discussing these topics than others. It is important that companies create a workplace environment that fosters open dialogue while still respecting individual differences. In the case of this discussion, it might help for management to set some guidelines around appropriate discussion or activities to ensure everyone is comfortable.
