      I have said that the reason people say you can't make rape jokes isn't that you can't make rape jokes, but that the vast, vast majority of those making rape jokes are so lazy and uninspired and frankly upsetting that you might as well ban people from making them.

          One of the funniest jokes about both rape and toxic masculinity was from Dave Chappelle where he said that if he ever did get raped, he'd just lie and say he was cheating on his girlfriend, because the fallout of that is easier to deal with than the humiliation of rape and that one hit me so hard because it's truer than it is funny.
