I find it and the "do her in the butt" comment massively offensive. There's nothing "humorous" in the least about jokes that involve violence towards women.
I'd bet a $100 that if ladies started suggesting that problematic husbands and boyfriends be bobbetized,the hue and cry around here would be deafening.


I agree with the butt reference, but how you are twisting "stabbing" to be a term in any way associated with violence towards women? "Stabbibg" as in intercourse? If that is your reasoning, you are reading far too much into it, I have never seen it used in that fashion.

I'll take that bet, as we would shrug it off for what it is. Humor, whether it agrees with your tastes or not.


I would never make remarks involving violence towards any part of the male anatomy and then have the nerve to try to pass it off as a harmless"joke" if a man complained (and rightfully so) about it,let alone to have the sheer gall to imply that somehow not liking it meant that the man was devoid of a sense of humor.


You have a wonderful talent of twisting meanings don't you?

Did I say you were "devoid of a sense of humor"?
No, that's what you wanted to read. The wonderful thing about people is that we' are all different, different tastes, etc, with some things that are humorous to some not humerous to others. Just because someone thinks things are funny that you do not, doesn't mean they are implying someone is "devoid of a sense of humor". DIfferent yes, devoid, no.

Actually the tone of your post and the posts of a couple others was quite clear and very understandable. I don't think anybody here objects to risque, non PC humor. Yes,everybody's sense of humor is different, but the comments I'm objecting to convey an attitude about women that's downright creepy.
