Why do you think rape is funny?

Negative reputation comment: It was funny. Lighten up.

No, it's not funny. Somewhere around 20% of women get sexually assaulted or raped, most of them are by men they know. Every time you joke about rape, you treat their pain as not worth considering.

I never read jokes in here about drugging children to have sex with them. Why should it be any funnier to drug women (or men for that matter)?
 
Unibrow is an extremely critical person. I feel sorry for his associates, he seems bent on magnifying other people's flaws.
 
Dang, look at those phalanges ladies! She's all flaunting it and ****.

I think this joke was underappreciated. Start appreciating it, bitches!

Oddly, my associates disagree. Then again, they don't usually go around joking about dropping roofies into women's drinks.
 
I've read people saying a lot less before you've launched into a moral diatribe.

Perhaps. Sometimes after four or five less serious comments, the overall total seems to cry for a response.

Personally, I think it's very revealing that your main concern is not people joking about rape, but people killing your buzz by saying rape jokes are not funny.
 
I don't think anything should ever be off limits. I think it's fine to point out I didn't find something funny because it seems to be making light of rape or be a joke based on false racial stereotypes or whatever, but I think it is important for us as a species to be able to laugh at our own tragedies.
