In what society is this an appropriate joke, to the point where grandma would forward it to you?

Lets reverse the genders. A wife tries to comically seduce her husband and gets beaten for it.

Why is that any different from this?

Pecker... Yep, this is a joke that grandma would send.

meh if this was a similar joke that was about two friends than there'd be nothing wrong. I find this joke funny, and I know I've found jokes about wives having panda eyes funny too

guess it's all about the double standards...

In a society where violence against one gender is normalized and even encouraged.

Did this actually happen? Because if not this it is not a mens right issue. I have seen jokes being forwarded around involving violence towards women. This comic was created for the soul purpose of the punchline...

Can I repost this to /r/funny? I think they will enjoy it more. People get way to serious...

Shit, chill, that's actually pretty funny.

There are a lot of "jokes" that are misandric (take the comic about the "uses of men" for example) but this isn't one of them.

A very sick one.

Punchline: "So I hit him in the face so hard that he bruised his eye socket! Don't believe me? Check out this picture of his cowering in fear after I hit him with a blunt object for telling a joke in poor taste... badum bump ching... VIOLENCE!"

Did you tell her off?

Why are people such killjoys?

I will downvote any "offensive jokes" unless they're actually not funny. Not funny is a bigger crime than offensive. Give me nigger jokes, cracker jokes, yeller jokes, pussy jokes, dead baby jokes, and any other meriad of offensive jokes and I will laugh because they're fucking jokes. Why can't a man get beaten in a joke? Are we to the point where we gather together and circle-jerk about how offensive something is? Are we the new SRS? Do we have to be offended by everything even slightly anti-male?

Grow a sense of humor, and stop being such a bleeding heart.
