It just seems to me that there are wide differences in personality that apply in pretty much the same way to either men or women. It's true men have historically been known for sexual humor, but most men leave that behind as they grow older, and you don't hear those kind of raucous jokes much anymore in either the workplace or in places where men hang out without women around. When I think of all the men in my immediate present experience -- brother, brothers-in-laws, close friends, associates at work, and so on -- I can't think of any of them who would make such jokes. The modern sensibility just doesn't allow it anymore or even regard such humor as funny anymore. I do at times joke in this way with my 21-year-old son, however; he sees sexual nuance in everything, and the joke, really, in his case, is in pretending to be a person who would tell such a joke. It has that extra layer of social awareness that my male friends didn't have at the same age.Roland Mengehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01866575867901176557noreply@blogger.com
