boys are stupid we should all just have sex with them then bite their heads off like praying mantises

This is something that I really have a problem with. I understand that it is supposed to be a joke, but could you imagine a gender reversal? Can imagine how fast the shit would go down if a guy said the same thing about women? I have a huge issue when people throw around genocide jokes. And yes, this counts, seeing as the person writing this is joking about killing men because they are men.

And yes, I do advocate for people joking about what they find funny, but at the same time, you don’t call a group of people stupid, and then talk about decapitation/cannibalism of said group. This illustrates a massive double standard in the empathy gap between men and women. It is like, as a species, we do not care what happens to me. We are allowed to joke about their deaths because their lives do not matter to us.

In this post, the person is saying that men should be used solely for pleasure, and then disposed of. Or, to put it another way, that men’s lives only have worth when they are of use. That they have no inherent value. Something about that just doesn’t sit well with me. 

Remember, jokes like OP’s are okay, but the comedian Tosh making a rape joke when a woman heckles him while he’s on stage is cause for outrage. Double standards are fun.
