I feel very disturbed when I hear all this. I do my part, whenever I hear someone saying something degrading for woman, even as a joke, I object. Because i know, that even if it is said as a joke, if it is being said over and over, you tend to think that's the way it works.
Many a times, things happened not just because someone did something, but because someone did not do what he should have done to stop something from happening.
Do your part, if everyone will do their part to stop it, it will change a lot.
- wastedhours 10y agoThe issue with that is of course not the joking - I'm firmly of the belief jokes can be made on any subject and shouldn't be taboo, so long as both parties (teller and listener) equally know it's a joke. Unfortunately, it's an issue when (whether due to intelligence, naivety or misaligned personalities) the fact something's a joke isn't shared, however I don't think objecting to something you interpret as a joke, and you know is being told as a joke, is the right course of action. But then, I need to check my own privilege to be fair.
