Ladies: Do you find the sexist jokes in the lounge funny?

4,980 378 March 23, 2010 at 11:38 AM
I have been inspired to create this thread because I would like to know how women take the jokes posted throughout the lounge.

We hear jokes like:

You're a woman, so you're stupid.
Get back in the kitchen and make me a sammich. Bring a beer, too.
Why did you let her out of the kitchen?
Okay fine, just a slew of kitchen jokes.
Women can't drive (but is it really a joke?).
Etc.

Personally, I see no harm in the jokes, think they're funny, and make them myself. I think that most of the men here don't really treat their wife or any woman in their life this way and I obviously don't agree with them in practice. I do think it is a funny perpetual joke here in the lounge and shouldn't be looked at in more than a superficial way.

This is why women shouldn't be allowed to start threads

I think it's a way for them to release their frustration from getting whipped daily by their wives/gfs.

I think if you cannot laugh at yourself within reasonable standards, there is something terribly wrong with you.

If a woman is so insecure that they can't take a simple joke like the above ones, she has a lot of issues. I find nothing wrong with them, usually laugh at them and sometimes make the jokes myself.
