Um Nerd's post is am implication that Butch and Femme are a heteronormative carbon copy and we should be ok with someone making ha ha jokes about sexism towards femme's? Cause that is what those jokes are sayin' and doing Now I don't know about you but I do not like that kind of message shoved down my throat via comedy.

Actually, for me, I think that het relationships are "normalized" through the media and most of our political, religious, and social systems. I think that we can internally "know" that the paper dolls that the media and systems of power provide to us aren't fair and real but I do personally recognize the validity of the existence of "het norm". It is important to me in this community that we do rail against "othering". My response above was an attempt to do that ![]()

Also, I thought I'd add that referring to heterosexuals as a collective in a way, imo, promotes boxing heterosexuals into one specific box. It doesn't recognise "them" as individuals. Again, just my take on it. |

Nerds, welcome to the site. I don't agree with the humor either but the person registered in August 2010. Can we cut her some slack and still discuss the topic at the same time?

So far I think we've all been rather subdued and accommodating in educating a new member... so what exactly is the topic now?

![]() Well first the topic was a joke that isn't and now you say there is a topic, I'd like to know just what the topic is please since you seem to know there is a topic. Now do you understand? ugh.

I am not so stupid that I don't understand that both of the below jokes are equally appalling: Why can't Femmes drive? Because there's no road between the kitchen and the bedroom Why can't Women drive? Because there's no road between the kitchen and the bedroom Both of those jokes are equally irritating to me, and I would personally drop down dead from shock if any of the other posters on this thread didn't ALSO find both jokes -equally- irritating.

It is offensive because it is sexist, it is misogynistic, it is dull and sophomoric. The OP is now informed by a whole lot of folks with out one flame as far as I can see. So what is there left to discuss, how we clip our toes? My attempt at humor, directed to no one in particular.

I am probably a bit of a hypocrit, since I make jokes about me and Nick parroting "traditional" male/female roles.
Mind you, when I do it it drips with irony. When I joke about all the stuff that I have to ask Nick's permission to do - it's because he, zeus, the cats, and now all of you know that I never ask permission to do ANYTHING and even if I did it would be cursory because he'd never be able to stop me from doing anything I felt like doing - and he wouldn't try. (Possibly he wouldn't try because he knows it would be a waste of his time, however.) (Another favourite joke of mine is the one about how now I'm gonna go do the dishes and make the apartment look nice for "my man". Please, it's fairly common knowledge that there are at least 4 loads of laundry overflowing the hamper and a zillion dvds strewn all over the couch at any given moment. Poor Nick.)
