The rape "jokes" are indeed sick and deplorable. I have never been raped during my life (thankfully), however I've known people who have been subjected to sexual assault and molestation, and I can tell you first hand that if you knew anyone personally who had been raped or molested you would never joke about a subject like that ever again.
For shame. For shame...

I /sort of/ know what you've been through and will go through throughout your life, therefore I am allowed to determine what is funny, what you should find funny, and what kind of jokes other people can make about the subject matter I am kind of familiar with, and whether or not they will be hurtful to you.

In no way am I making light of your years of pain, I am just saying that the world will not change for you no matter how much you want to. If you need to talk to somebody about your past, hire a therapist. Forums are not a good place for it, especially when you are insulting people while doing it.

So just because you actually went through the experience you get to determine what other people should determine "what is funny, what you should find funny, and what kind of jokes other people can make about the subject matter"Matty Tibaldi wrote:

Notice how I used your own words? Yeah, that's you being hypocritical again.

You and hundred of thousands of others laugh along with a man when he jokingly talks about how he likes to rape, without any kind of respect for the subject, and even as a decent human being, I should not be outraged, or try to change it?

There are limits on humor, moron, humor is one of the most situational and personal forms of entertainment. And guess what? Laughing at a holocaust joke heartily without feeling bad? Sorry, that's shitbag behaviour!

And it's a fucking crime when nobody stands up for others. Maybe queers have better empathy than most human beings, because the community I'm a part of, and all the other queer communities I've been a part of, have steadfastedly avoided making jokes that put others down, and on the rare occasion someone does make a senseless joke, they apologise, or someone stands up for the people being joked about. I would hope communites outside mine practice the same empathy for others worthy of respect.Run wrote:
