rape jokes

[Reapin]

If you have been raped, don't go to a comedy show.

Problem solved.

Listen around 5:35 in your own video. She says jokes that are played down in importance, really trivialize a real and horrible thing. Then she says (in a joking way) it's not like they bring up the holocaust and say the victims were asking for it. This got a good reaction, as expected. Isn't her example also trivializing a real and horrible thing? It's just hypocritical. You think she won the argument?

All academic discussions of "rape culture perpetuation" and "trivialization of social issues contributing to the normative acceptance of violence as being laughable and therefore somehow logically it follows that it's acceptable" and all that aside, I just think, as someone who writes and performs various media of comedy and is, at the same time, 100% anti-rape, anti-domestic violence, pro-equality of women, that I have a right, if I think a joke can be told that involves rape but is still funny- and there are certainly criteria that specifically outline whether or not it is, but fuck going into that shit here- I have a right to do so without some fucking jezebel.com blogger shrieking that I'm just as bad as the rapists. I've comforted enough rape survivor friends, girlfriends, and aquaintances and protected enough women from varying degrees of being taken advantage of or being victimized in various ways that I know I am not the enemy here, and if someone tries to tell me that making a joke somehow changes that, I'm going to fucking rape her.

5 minutes into the video the fat chick used the phrase "rape victim", in that alone she proves she doesn't know what the fuck she's talking about.

Believe it or not there are men out there with such INCREDIBLY low self esteem they only have the courage to rape fat chicks.

And of course there are them who actually ENJOY the fat chicks.

everything meaningful and important about this conversation aside, I just think, as someone who writes and performs various media of comedy and is, at the same time, 100% anti-rape, anti-domestic violence, pro-equality of women, that I have a right to be a fucking idiot.

The problem and the beauty of freedumb of speech is that if you can say something, I can say something about you saying something, and you better hope that I am not louder than you.

So basically the best answer to "rape jokes hurt actual people" is "fuck you, i can objectify your dumb ass all I want bcoz mericuh."

Mericuh. Fuck yeah.

lol you think I'm talking about freedom of speech but really you just don't get that there are some things I just don't think a person has a right to accuse another person of if it's not grounded in fact but in rhetoric and politically correct asinine horseshit

Like you're objectifying all men as tyrants who are out to hurt and rape everyone?

Pretty much.

Your war on men only serves to hurt women in the long run FYI, why not fight for actual equality and raise everyone up instead of trying to knock groups down.

More like "not racist because I legitimately do not care about what color a person's skin is, which means if I enjoy a person's company I will be friends with them regardless of their skin color." Or, in this case, "not a rapist because I don't rape and I always make sure to protect other people from people who do." But that's ok, you tried real hard.
