You get off it! I did not say that jokes are automatically
demaning and degrading. I said the jokes Gordon posted and
particpated in with others were demeaning and degrading to
women, including a dead Nun, soon to be Saint. And any jokes
that make light of rape, make rape a joke are demeaning and
degrading!

See above and FUCK OFF! Men demeaning and degrading women with humor
is not a healing activity.
