Its that we hate women!  Thats much better (btw, the below was snagged from Sadly, No, but its a quote from another article).
the premise: the primary need for marriage is the control of sexual access to women (he actually says this).  So, he wants us to realize that anti-gay marriage people aren’t homophobes or jesus nutjobs.  Instead, they just think women need to be controlled like the pathetic children they are.  The subtext, that all men are rapists and the only thing stopping them is the ‘institution’ of marriage, isn’t particularly complimentary to men either. 

Sadly, No! » A novel objection to gay marriage

Can gay men and women be as generous as we straight men are? Will you consider us as men who love, just as you do, and not merely as homophobes or Baptists? Every day thousands of ordinary heterosexual men surrender the dream of gratifying our immediate erotic desires. Instead, heroically, resignedly, we march up the aisle with our new brides, starting out upon what that cad poet Shelley called the longest journey, attired in the chains of the kinship system–a system from which you have been spared.

So, recently, my wife started making a stink about how rape jokes aren’t funny.
She also showed me a few skits and such (by guys I like) that used rape as a gag.
And, the fact is, she’s right. It’s not cool to make rape jokes.
But I honestly couldn’t tell you why. I mean, if it was a joke about a guy getting raped by a guy, we’d laugh without guilt. Or, say, a guy getting an axe to the head.
Funny stuff, I say!
Hell, I’ll laugh at a good Holocaust joke, and I’m Jewish.
Pretty horrible. So why is it different?
I thought about it, letting it stew in the back of my head for a while.
I think I have two reasons.
1. Ultimately, I’m a white male. That means I default to a higher, more privileged power structure than women, as a rule.
The stronger you are, the more you have to be able to laugh at yourself and take criticism. When push comes to shove, most humor is about taking power away from those that have it (which is why its funny to make jokes about assholes getting beaten, but not about children getting beaten, for example, or funny to make jokes about Christians (in the US) and less so about Hindus). I have power, you wanna make a joke about killing me, ok.

2. Rape, and general violence against women, is a real problem. It goes on every day, and the laws aren’t doing much to protect women. And there are people out there who want to relax even those laws. So, unlike an axe to the head, rape is something that women actually have to deal with and be concerned about. It would be like making that Holocaust joke during World War II.

So, when you make a rape joke, you are bullying someone smaller than you and using threats that very well might become reality.
Not as funny as it might be.

Hey, see, religion takes you to such a wonderful place that women hire men to go rape women so that they’ll become terrorists!

Teh crazy does not discriminate based on gender!

Really? This guy is the face the Republicans want to put out there?

Nugent: I was in Chicago last week I said—Hey Obama, you might want to suck on one of these you punk? Obama, he’s a piece of shit and I told him to suck on one of my machine guns…Let’s hear it for them. I was in NY and I said hey Hillary—you might want to ride one of these into the sunset you worthless bitch…Since I’m in California, I’m gonna find– she might wanna suck on my machine gun! Hey, Dianne Feinstein, ride one of these you worthless whore. Any questions? Freeeeedom!

I’m sorry, why, exactly, do women vote Republican?
(yes, I know he doesn’t actually say ‘rape’, but I’m not sure you can get much closer)

Well, thats got to be very comforting to women. Wear jeans and you can’t possibly be raped.
(quite possibly the most horrible thing to come out of Italy since…)

(edit: sorry, this is actually from 9 years ago, dunno why its making the rounds now.  However, the fact that it was 9 years ago doesn’t diminish how  fucking repulsive this is)

Women in jeans ‘cannot be raped’Women in jeans ‘cannot be raped’
Italy’s highest court has ruled that a woman wearing jeans cannot be raped.

The Supreme Court of Appeal in Rome on Wednesday overturned a rape conviction, saying that the supposed victim must have agreed to sex because her jeans could not have been removed without her consent.

A court in the southern town of Potenza had convicted a driving instructor of raping his 18-year-old pupil.

The instructor, aged 45 and identified only as Carmine, had been sentenced to 34 months’ jail.

His defence had argued that the young woman – identified as Rosa – had consented to sex, a version of events which the woman strongly denied.

The Supreme Court ruled that it was impossible to remove a pair of jeans “without the collaboration of the person wearing them”, and that the young woman must therefore have consented to sex.

In a judgement likely to anger women’s rights organisations, the rape conviction was reversed.

Driving instructors in Italy have a reputation, deserved or undeserved, for molesting young female pupils, and the case appeared at first to be a familiar story of sexual assault on a lonely country road.
