we have a poster here or there come in to tell us.... but, .... male rape jokes are funny, what about that.

it derails from the Op and the conversation to be had.

i was not clear about your position or reasoning for bringing up male rape jokes getting approval. so i made clear, that we do not think they are funny. we were the first to bring up the point that male rape jokes are not funny. we are the ones that continually call out male rape jokes.

good to know your position.
