So it's not OK to laugh at :iconkris-wilson:'s popular Cyanide and Happiness comic; "Building Character"?
If I recall correctly, a lot of those who read the strip said; "I was abused (and raped) but I have a sense of humor; this is funny!!!"

I know this fucker who goes to my library and won't stop talking to me. I can't stand up to him because he's twice my age and twice my size. All he does is bitch about his ex girlfriend doing unrealistic things to stalk him, because he knows he's just that stalkable. Then he expects me to laugh when he says that he'd like to chop her up, cook her in chile, and feed her to her family.

I don't understand how there can even be a middle ground of joking about rape...it's *not* funny. It's an extremely horrifying thing.

Being a victim of it myself, I can't tell you how many times someone has not taken me seriously when I have broken down and told them. Because people already think it's the funniest damn thing they've ever heard...

To me joking about it desensitizes people to the situation and makes them not take it very seriously. But that's just my opinion, and I've been told by many people "it's just sex." or "it's not that big of a deal", so I guess I have different experiences with it. But to me, it's still horrible. It's not making light of a dark situation...it's not taking it for how serious it really is. There's some things you just don't joke about.

I laugh at some pretty fucked up things, but that's pretty fucked up in itself. :\

My girlfriend was raped, she told me, she was only twelve when it happened, and it was at the hands of her 18 y/o cousin. She was in hysterics when she told me this.

Rape is definitely NOT funny. No matter what gender the victim or even the rapist is, it's very serious.
I admit, like a lot of people (you know who you are :lol:) I surf the internet for porn. I look at hentai and read fanfiction with sexual content. But rape does not entertain me. Especially when it's downplayed by having the victim start enjoying it.

I agree completely.
Just because something's a joke doesn't make it okay.
Saying things like "You are a idiot." then saying "Oh I was just joking." doesn't make it any less offensive.
Jokes are fun when they are good and funny. Being an insensitive asshole isn't funny; and saying your were joking doesn't make it okay.
