Rape joke?
Oh good grief, Ms. Price, you've gone wayyyy overboard here. How is what he wrote a rape joke? She referred to the staff as "emasculated" (obviously in the metaphorical sense) and he responded with a joke by using the word in its literal sense and pointing out that half the staff is female, and that the male half would be willing to drop trou for her in private to prove that they're still "intact". He certainly wasn't saying, "Well, we could all just take you to a room and gang rape you, if you'd like" or whatever the hell else you thought he was implying.
Yeah, it was a lame joke. So? It wasn't about rape.
And perhaps she opened the door to it in the first place by using a word that means "castrated" to describe his staff? If one uses terms that reference sexual matters and genitalia in a broadside, perhaps one should expect a retort that employs some suggestive language too?
Anyway, is there something actually important and meaningful to talk about, or are you content to "entertain" us with a silly rant about trivial bullshit?
