About this audiobook
A modern, feminist take on the classic joke book to amuse and empower readers who are tired of being the punchline.
A man walks into a bar. It’s a low one, so he gets a promotion within his first six months on the job.
Four comedy writers transform classic joke setups into sharp commentary about the everyday and structural sexism that pervades all facets of life. Jokes to Offend Men arms readers with humorous quips to shut down workplace underminers, condescending uncles, and dismissive doctors, or to share with their exhausted friends at the end of a long day. A cutting, cathartic spin on the old-fashioned joke book, Jokes to Offend Men is a refreshing reclamation of a tired form for anyone who's ever been told to "lighten up, it's just a joke!"

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Neither amused nor offended by these “jokes”, as mostly were simply unfunny or not surprisingly funny. Better luck next time.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5It has some funny ones, but mostly I felt sad that the things it "joked" about are actually true and not funny.
