Skepchicks warring with Louis CK and Joe Rogan

Comedians, not making properly respectful jokes. Rape culture.

Joe Rogan fans, known for their sophistication, make dopey comments on Twitter. O' the Huge Manatee!

The Louis CK stuff isn't new-- he got lumped in with the Daniel Tosh rape joke debacle a while back.

I don't know. Anyone who actually listens to Louis CK's standup should know that he is a progressive with strong opinions about how to be a good father, how some men act like douchebags sometimes, about valuing women as being more than sex objects, etc., etc.

It's frustrating that all of that gets tossed aside because some women find a handful of his jokes not funny.

Joe Rogan hits on a great point in the rant in the youtube video above. I never found Rogan funny at all, but he is spot on when he talks about the lady trying to tell him what to do. She tells him where he's supposed to look, and he stands up for himself and refuses to be told where he's allowed to look. That's a common feminist (of the ApeLust/Skepcherk/FtB sorrt) thing to do -- they want to tell guys what they're allowed to say, how you should think and where guys can direct your eyes.

^^ This. Like any comedian, some of his material falls flat and is lame. Big whoop. But he's in the firing line now so anything he mentions in a routine about men or women will be picked apart now and taken out of the larger context of what he believes.
