2. Anti-Male Bigotry
Anti-male bigotry disguised as humor. Can you imagine the uproar if a man were to post anything like this about women?

4. Come on, lighten up
We can't be tight asses all the time can we?

When we stop laughing at ourselves we're doomed.

Create a similar list about women, I need the laughs.

5. Humorous Bigotry
If we're going to have humorous bigotry, we can all lighten up a bit. Heard any good Catholic jokes lately?

11. Actually, I heard a good Italian joke today
How do we know Jesus was Italian?

He was 33, he lived at home, he worked in the building trades, he thought his mother was a virgin and his mother thought he was the Son of God.

Woops, that could be construed as anti-Italian, anti-religious, anti-Italian male (I'm married to one)...lighten up, will ya?

13. I'm working on it!...May be the post that gets me banned...
Post this male-bashing shit, and it's "Aww, c'mon! Can't you thin-skinned cry-babies take a JOKE???"

but let one of us cut loose with the "Cee-Word" and it's "I got dibs on his nuts on a skewer!"

Sorry, but what's good for the Goose is good for the Gander, too.
At least I didn't pop an alert cap on the original post.

3. Two things...
First, I may be the only female on DU that well over half that list could apply to...x(

And second...everytime I see your name I giggle because I inevitably read it as "arsechild". :D (No offense intended. ;))

8. Yeah, a lot of those things work for me too
*looks down shirt* Still a girl here! I personally don't mind mild joking about gender roles and stereotypes, but that's just me.

9. What's with the men not asking for directions meme?
I hear that stupid fucking joke every single day and it just doesn't follow. I once worked a job where I was asked for a lot of directions and the majority of the people asking were men.

And to tell you the truth, having once also worked as a janitor, men are a lot cleaner in the bathroom then women.

12. I'm with ya on both!
I ask directions a lot. I know many men who ask directions.

And I, too, was a janitor in a grocery store. HATED cleaning the women's rooms, because I never knew what kinds of destruction lay in wait for me. Sometimes the women's rooms were positively disgusting. Men's rooms? Only very, very rarely. I was totally shocked at how dirty women are. And this was a grocery store that was open 24 hours a day, and was frequented by people of all income, education, and age brackets.
