Anyone notice how easily "fun" is made out of the topic of male erections? Countless comedies, and even nightly sitcoms there are constant innuendos and graphic images of males getting erections but you never hear anything about females getting wet?? I'm personally sick of all the movies such as Something about Mary, American Pie, Austin Powers, etc. filled with erection jokes, images, etc. NEVER do you see or hear about female excitement. Double standard to me.

Yeah, well I'd rather have jokes about women getting "wet" than get paid less for the same exact job, getting passed over for promotions to a guy who has less education, less experience, and was at the job less time just because he HAS a d!ck between his legs.

First, its not Reverse Double Standard. A double standard is when two things that should be equal are treated with different sets of circumstances. You can see the other side of a double standard, but reversing it does nothing.
Second, you're right. Its because females are executive producers for EVERYTHING now. Look at commercials, you ever notice how stupid they make men look? That fast food commercial "Without us, some guys would starve."? They'd never put up a commercial "Without us, women would starve." You will simply never see it. Furthermore I love how its okay when women can tackle men and its funny, but you can't even show a woman getting hit in the face with a stray football because that's "insensitive." Also, the engagement ring commercials during football, I can promise you that no man came up with that advertising scheme.
I rarely watch TV anymore because I'm sick of the propaganda. Long have I said that if I had the time and money, a men's rights advocacy group is what this country needs.

Those things which get the biggest reaction out of people are their weakest links. Go with the flow and find a quiet place in your mind to visit when you feel stressed over something or other.

well men are built to take it too aren't they?
there probably aren't any jokes like that because you can't SEE a woman becoming aroused, but you can see a man.
and anyway, men probably wouldn't laugh, it would turn them on.
just like the person said above me about sleeping around, there's a lot of double standards, don't be such a wuss, get over it.

Well, that double standard works both ways. If a guy has a lot of girls, he's a stud or a player, if a girl has a lot of guys, she's a tramp or a slut.
