Your mamma" jokes have nothing to do with "women's bodies."
"Fat momma" jokes have everything to do with men's (often relentlessly juvenile) thoughts about women's bodies, and the need of some males to continually broadcast said thoughts in completely inappropriate contexts. The bottom line is that this is technical forum, and that kind of crap simply doesn't belong here.
Any more than it does on, say, the title of a slide deck at a technical conference.

It's ridiculously under qualified. Consider more 'boys' than men, more opinions on other people's bodies than just women's. Consider both genders make jokes, judgements and, comments at the expense of others' on any number of factors (socio-economic status, hygiene, neck-beardiness, hair colour, musical taste...) People are mean. This isn't "men v. women" it's just crass, unfunny and, unwelcome.
