There must be a joke/satire about Bubbles McSqueak, and Trump's encounter with her when Melania was pregnant. "Bubbles McSqueak" would attract a male with a 'Bubbles McSqueak type of brain'.

Brigitta- I am going to comment on something other than "jokes" first. When I watch TV at night, there 'seems' to be 99%, murder: strangle them, burn them, chop 'em up with a chain saw- anything a warped mind can think of! Hey, but there ain't none of thet thar "sex"; that might distort someone's thinking. Ya, sure! Talking about jokes, then we have the American sit-com humour. I must wonder why they produce these shows; the whole modus operandi seems to be, the participants say something stupid and the canned-laughter comes on. I do understand that the laughter-bit is for convenience- for the people that are not 'smart' enough to know what was just said was a "joke". And getting to your point: I worked on construction with the hillbillies, and I had to endure every moronic so-called 'sex joke' that their feeble minds could regurgitate. YES, sex is sometimes funny; stupidity never is.

I guess it also brings up the question of what one considers sexual. Is it just 'pee pee' and 'hoo-ha' jokes? Or double entendre (like was so often in the Britcom 'Are You Being Served?' and general word play? Jokes that may sound 'dirty' but actually aren't if you look at them literally.

Sex itself can be funny - just look at the various sounds that bodies make while in 'flagrante delicto'. A healthy sex life is both passionate, serious, silly, with both partners being free to laugh should something strike them as funny during the act. So why not have a joke about it?

Of course, some 'sex jokes' are just mean, sexist, and stupid; they aren't funny at all. It's those kind that I have a problem with

I don't like "Jerry Seinfeld" humor. I think he's grossly overrated and I have no idea why he's as rich as he is.

A lot of men don't think with the head on their shoulders, but with the head in between their legs. It seems many men are just hardwired to think about sex. Kind of like how many male dogs will hump a leg, a tree or anything handy, because many males seem to just be hard wired (driven by animal instinct) that way. So, yeah it comes out in humor.

Personally, I dont' find most of it to be all that funny. Not all men think that way.

I tend to seek out female comedians so I watch about as many women as men and I don't see that difference. Women can tell jokes as well as the men and they can be more effective with them.

I am in a private Facebook group where the idea is outrageous jokes, many of them sexual in nature. The women in the group get into it as much as the men. It seems it's liberating for everyone.

men are very insecure I think. I'm not so much anymore. it's a mans world rightly or wrongly but I know mentally woman are much stronger than men.as a school kid reaching puberty, a cleavage would give me a raging boner. some things don't change I guess. did you hear about the male stripper ran up to 2 old ladies on a bench and flashed them?
one had a stroke
and the other one couldn't reach.

A joke is either funny or not. Some are in bad taste and many ridicule the misfortune of others.

I don't agree with your assertion that 99% are authored by men, as many female comics are as sexually provocative as the men I see on the comedy circuits.

Perhaps your view is slightly skewed by the fact that stand-up is still very much a male dominated area of entertainment - but there are some superb female comics coming through at the minute and it's high time the industry reflected this.

And I disagree with your assertion that it is a male thing too. I work in a predominantly female workplace and a substantial amount of the humour is sexual in content.

It's fine that you don't appreciate the jokes, but trying to tie down a "reason" why other people do is like trying to understand why people don't like your favorite meal. It doesn't matter! Live and let live!

Not all men like sexually suggestive jokes, and not all women are appalled by them.

You'll find that we have sexual jokes here both from men and women. Ignore those posts if they bother you.

Are you so certain that men find it funny?

It's nothing new. It's been going on for as long as humans have been communicating.
Some people's humor never advances past that of a 9 year old.
Humor is one of those highly subjective things. We're not all going to find the same
things funny.
