What's even more hilarious is that a cartoon boob has been whited out!

OMGosh, i just noticed that.. Hahahaha. Funny thing about that cartoon is that several of my guy friends have emailed that one to me to chide me about my obvious condition thinking they were being cute. Nothing bothers me about that, but I do take note of their motives which don't get past me.

I can understand that Shan.. I never post things like that when I think it might be taken the wrong way. In a topic made for it though seemed fine.?
There's just not many to choose from??

No I like it because it is hilariously funny and not all that improbable. It's just that the guys I know had a different reason for sending it to me, trying to get a rise out of me though I thought it was hilariously funny then too and since I knew their motives I just had to consider the source and realize it was just the dorks being smart asses as usual.

I think the "oh my god, I accidentally slept with a leper transexual" joke isn't funny and one of those 'innocent' jokes that quietly and insidiously feeds transphobia.

Yeah I know. But the way acceptable language has changed with regards to racism has changed gives me hope that it does change, regardless of how deep-seated it is, and the general change in perceptions and acceptability of racism, shows me that making things unacceptable to say, and think, has a positive effect.
You know I find some of them a little funny too, like ... 'I like my women like I like my coffee... without a penis', but I accept that its not acceptable, just like when my grandparents make jokes about 'the darkies', they find them funny, but have learnt that they are not acceptable now, and should not be said out loud or endorsed in public. Like rape or abuse jokes, they are just bad bad taste and I am far too much of a lady to have such bad taste! lol :-)

Picky, picky, you're probably right but it isn't going to go away as long as humans are human. The best thing to do is this: instead of letting someone's shoddy sense of humor get you upset, laugh at it, too. Turn the joke around on them, even. Lots of men joke about their pals ending up meeting a "tranny" (and, yes, that's such a trashy term) at a bar, so we draw up our own tongue-in-cheek comic about that happening where she ends up being way hotter, doing more things together, and getting married while his friend is completely befuddled. Love comes in many forms, and that little comic would tell that tale. Two can play at this game, even if the point is completely missed. So we eventually reach a touché of sorts. The more upset we get, the more power we give them.

There's a book out entitled "Verbal Judo" it's an excellent read, especially for us.
