When a player has his/her PC engage in socially unacceptable behavior and then tells you "I'm just staying in character", then let the PC suffer the reasonable consequences of the acts. For example, the PC engages in repeated sexual name-calling of the very vulgar variety towards either another PC or an NPC; that PC then gets negative reactions from the other NPC's to the point of not getting information, not getting to go to where the others do et c. "We don't likes that kind of behavior here, guv'nor." That's staying in character, too. And generally brings the offensive player back into reasonable line.
