I get told offensive jokes all the time! I was told an amazing one just yesterday;

What would the Flintstones be called if they were black?

.....actually, forget I said anything.

Bananna slices with my egg salad. GET IT RIGhT.

Oh, now that's just wrong...it might offend some newcomer who's easily offended by offensive offensiveness...kind of like 40yr old men in skimpy clothes reminding them of women's nipples...or something...

Gender Harassment: I like to harass Asexuals

Told offensive jokes: Always!

Made offensive sexual remarks: Bewbs

Made remarks about your body or sexual activities: I'm a human tripod!

Displayed or distributed sexist materials:


Made sexist remarks: Get back in da' kitchen & make me a sammich!!!

Publish pictures, videos and movies online: YES- my recent title: "I Love Ewe" and "Barnyard Shenanigans". Projects are on hold for now as the pig squeeled.

Unwanted sexual attention: Yep! All women want me!

Attempted to discuss sexual matters: Sex DOES matter!!

Gave unwanted sexual attention:


Attempted to establish a romantic or sexual relationship: Does with myself count??

Continued to ask for dates, drinks, touching: All women in SL feel like a monitor screen.

Impose sex-related sounds or images on a message: You're reading this, right?

Sexual coercion: Bags of candy usually work.

Trailing your records: I've switched to CDs long ago.

Sexual insinuations:


Bribes and seductions to achieve sexual aims: Does tipping your Alt count??

I can't go to that website while I am at work. I'll just assume it is something very very naughty and giggle behind my company created shelter.

From: Urban Dictionary

Giraffe
a large necked animal that lives primarily in africa. It preys on eagles, hawks, parrots, and other birds. A common misconception is that giraffes use their long necks to eat leaves. However they actually use them to scope out birds nests in the tops of trees. Their horns are used for stabbing hawks out of the air (they are often worn down to stumps from killing hundreds of hawks/eagles.) They are responsible for the endangerment of many birds (most notably bald eagles and the california condors).`


This one is true - I've seen it done.

"giraffe: Cockney rhyming slang for 'laugh'."

Oddly enough.... I dont think it means anything.

Just one of those jokes without a sensible ending. :D

Or a paper for a Womyn's Studies class. "Evil Male Oppression In Virtual Worlds"
Hmm, I'd just like to state unequivically that whilst I am a strong instigator of Oppression in Evil form, I am in no way sexist in my choice of those oppressed, it is pure coincidence all the collared Neko's in the lower levels of the Mini-Fortress of Doom are female. there are many males tolling 16hour shifts in prim mines and my camper waste management division who will vouch for my even handed oppression policies.

Are you Frickin Serious???And what is the purpose of this "Survey"? Are you one of the new "Pragmatics" that we've been told are coming? As others have said, there is no sexual harrasment. If someone says or does something you don't like...Mute, TP Away, LogOff, Ban, Eject, Set On Fire....."
I smell a scandal mongering "journalist" here.

I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness. You are an enigma - on the one hand a sweet, gentle, intelligent woman who we would like to wrap up in our arms and protect, and on the other, a temptress to whom we would like to do all sorts of unmentionable things.

Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut.

seriously

when i joined SL the female population out weighed the male population 10 to 1, no thats not official, and yes that just a guess but still

now most "dudes" are saying HELL YEA OSGELD!!!!! GET THAT TANG, and i dont think you mean the orange flavored nasa endorsed beverage

but it really became a issue

when i was a teacher, i could not get 3 words out before getting "your cute lets go over to the corner and fu..." 2 times a week, with atleast 2 different people every time

or id be totally alone in my skybox working on projects, projects that at that time were paying my bills, and some flyby would start up with "your a dude lets cyber"

then there were the others, those people who think "he is being a friend to me so that automatically means he is romantically interested" had a few of those too, regret loosing a friend but ...

me personally i have never had a real life level of desperation that required me to walk around with my 1L$ junk hanging out bumping into any av that had her "extra polygons" inflated and i personally despise anyone who harasses another individual in any form

but in my experience the "ladies" are much more prevalent than the "dudes"

hah even when i have had "dudes" hit on me they did not do in in a constant harassing manner, simple explanation, and our conversation went on like normal

Seeing this picture made me feel like I had been sexually harassed.

You rule, Tegg-I just voted for it.... :D


And this thread has taught me naughty things about giraffes. Not many threads can say that.

Trout, I think there are 150 space bucks directed your way. I have always wanted to be harassed by a professional.
