People use the phrase “boys will be boys” to normalize extremely toxic and abusive behaviour, if such behaviour is what you mean by no one being allowed to be boys, then damn right.

If being a boy involves rape jokes then yes, society in general has decided that being a boy is shitty.

Society in general isn’t against dark jokes. But sometimes are too uptight for them, it’s true. Why they can’t just be “I didn’t enjoy that but it’s okay”, who knows.

Obviously, it’s because anyone who finds a rape joke funny is a bit creepy and rapey.

Sometimes jokes are a bit dark. Dark jokes even

What’s the humor, honestly? That the woman gets raped? That’s what’s funny to you?

The absurdism of the situation. You don’t typically reverse abortion if someone’s card is declined.
Do you really not get what’s supposed to be the joke or do you not find it funny? Because those are two very different things.
