Sexist Jokes allowed?

Even though I agree they're just jokes, I was wondering how long it would take for someone to make this thread lol. I wouldn't have been surprised if those kind of threads were closed on this kind of forum but I'm glad the mods don't feel it is necessary. At least Garion is taking it all seriously though :badgrin:

Hmmm, lets hear a Girls Opinion..


Well, I think it is well rude to be posting stereotypes and sexist jokes on the forum. because some people can take them very offensively , Because on that thread that David posted, I being a female think it is very uncalled for, saying ; Why is the forest doing in the kitchen. I understand that it is just a joke. But Some people might take it the wrong way. In Canada their are many Male Chefs. So I think it shouldn't be tolerated, but thats just my opinion.

glad to see no women replied to this thread ;l in the kitchen where they belong


LOL its a joke, you obv targeting scott because you probably have an (Habbo related)issue with him at them moment or something

edit; fgs april ;l get back to the kitchen

i actually got really offended by this and it has upset me in many different ways

graham *** you said you went bed, you didnt even wish me happy birthday
some friend you are, you can forget about being set up with matthew

You can post as many male related jokes as you want, they won't bother me (because I know we're superior).

In all seriousness though, enforcing a rule against such jokes would just be ridiculous. People moan about leniency and then want us to get well strict! People make this jokes all the time, and as long as they are good natured and aimed at having a laugh I don't see what the problem is at all.

Besides, women won't mind... they're too busy in the kitchen and looking after the children to complain about sexist jokes!

I'm not sure if im suppose to get offended by this. but i did , that is very disrespectful , and shouldn't be allowed by even a forum manager...

How many men does it take to open a beer?


None, it should be opened when she brings it to you.



anyways yeh its not srs its just got teh ***** n giggulz

The jokes are there to make people laugh, not at others expense or anything.

They have no point other than to give you a giggle, they aren't serious and they are not making any points about sexism.

It's pretty obvious a lot of guys will disagree with this because the jokes aren't aimed at them. They are rude jokes, they are offending people, such behaviour is beneath Habbox forum users.
