As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Rape As Comedy--Should it be allowed?

    Well you can lie to them, they are just better trained to detect when you are. Its not a walk in the park, at least.

    Its not easy to lie to psychologists. Seriously, I've tried, it just doesn't work. Its hard faking a polygraph too. But anyway, people can fake material evidence and screw with physical tests results too, so your point is moot.

    What, psychologists and polygraphs aren't able to point to a verdict on these matters anymore or something?

    Rape As Comedy--Should it be allowed?

    Maybe they do it because rape is sad/horrible, and they don't want to live in a world where such horrible things happen to 1/3rd of people potentially. I suppose similar thinking goes into holocaust denial (11-17 million innocent people didn't die due to someone's mad conspiracies! The alleged...

    Was not my intent. I thought it was in a sarcastic manner, I am sorry for misinterpreting you.

    This is what the thread is about, whether this type of comedy should be televised. If I am specifically talking to you about a specific thing, you cannot dodge the question by getting into a semantics debate about the thread title. I am sorry, but debates are not conducted that way. I said I...

    And those boundaries I feel have been crossed. Why do you want people to care less about important issues? I think finding rape justified and funny is a very sick, sick perspective. I can do without the condescending tone, thank you very much. Yes, and...?

    FROM the south, not living in the south, is what I meant. And please address the actual issue.

    Watershed, I was using prayer as an example because Pwnemon cares about prayer and thus would probably be offended by jokes of because they trivialize the matter, trying to draw correlation of the offense by those kinds of jokes to the offense I feel about rape jokes. So far I've only managed to...

    There was a reason I was directing that at Pwnemon and not you, okay?

    No? Anything you can draw humor from you are trivializing. Would you like to make me to make jokes about how Christians are talking into the air when they are praying, and any voices they here are because they are schizophrenic? Of course not, that would be trivializing prayer by making fun of...

    Actually its not. "People condone the holocaust and pedophillia because they aren't affected by it. We can tell that people condone pedophilia and the holocaust because there are pedo and holocaust jokes."

    Fox is a television channel, yes? Which we all condone and trivialize all of those too, but ok, carry on. TV TROPES TO THE RESCUE! http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RapeAsComedy http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RapeIsFunnyWhenItIsMaleOnMale...

    Or most comedic western animation shown on primary stations. I have, and I know this stuff has to get money in order to survive, thus there is people watching it.

    So are we agreed that the public outlook on these matters need changed? Is there anyone who thinks that the way the general public just accepts this kind of humor needs to be changed?

    Rape As Comedy--Should it be allowed?

    Debating whether rape jokes can be allowed in mainstream television under current regulations and audience acceptance. The current answer is, yes, yes they can, and I do wonder why and if that needs to be changed if we had the power to do so.

    You can use the exact same argument by replacing [rape jokes] with [jokes against black people] or [jokes against LGBTQQA people] or [jokes against the entire female gender]. Would you be fine with all of that? Because this isn't just about artistic freedom, it actually makes it harder for real...
