I'm not complaining: People are going to do whatever they want to do. I'm saying that if we're going to joke and say all this stuff, somewhere, underneath, we have to support the reality and make it clear that as much as we're foolin' around, that harming someone sexually is in reality no joke, that there is help out there, without judgement.

I appreciate these sentiments as well. Being a white man myself it's easy to think that these jokes aren't harmful, however I've met plenty of people not "fortunate" enough to be born white or male who do find them offensive. That seems like a reasonable reason to call even the jokes into question.

It's funny you should say that, cause what really brought this to the forefront of my mind was last week a coworker was telling me about a Dave Chappele skit about "man rape" he saw. I wasn't offended, I just realized that I'd heard about a hundred rape jokes in the past few weeks and started thinking about friends of mine, people I care about, who have been assaulted and how they must feel hearing all of the bullshit going on these days with misinformation, ridicule, etc etc

Black comedian, though male, still same outcome.
