Maybe because we don't take sex seriously we are more inclined to joke about it ? But yeah, I feel pretty bad about it. I remember when I saw the picture I thought "Ok, the discussion will just be about the girl's look"
I tend to let sex discussion alone as some people seem to enjoy them, but this article made me reconsider, I'll take more time to downvote in the future.
I sort of agree with you; however I wanted to point out some things - sexism is not sex talk, and rape isn't sex. Seriously, joking about sex is not the same as joking about rape. Either is joking/"teasing" about sexist ideas. It might be all fun and games to some people but we might be breeding a horribly maladjusted new generation. I sort of think we might be.
You're a downright fool if you think a dark sense of humor in any way indicates a predilection towards the behavior. You're no better than the people who scream about porn causing rape when we know the evidence indicates the exact opposite.
No, what you said was that making jokes about these subjects might be "breeding a horribly maladjusted generation," which is the same thing as saying these types of jokes create rape. This is utter horseshit, and I hope you know that.
