So it's completely fine to make offensive jokes about religion, politics, etc.

No its not. People should call out all offensive jokes, but they don't.

Well, its not quite so black and white as you seem to think it is, but I imagine discussing the shades of grey in between wouldn't work well over the internet.

Some people just have their sticks, far too deep...

Damn it, now all I can think of is what would happen if that wall came down and the stores were merged.

It'd probably look something like this:

One of the kids that plays here asked if it was bad that the lovely ladys kept trying to avoid us and not be noticed and I promptly responded "dont worry it doesnt matter if they dont want to be around you right now, because later in life they'll have to because you'll be their boss" (he's a smart kid, he got the joke)

Nothing like a little sexism to spice up the thread.

Or a little white knighting?

It's something worth "white knighting" for. Misogyny has no place in the hobby.

Oh brother, you have to be kidding. light-heartedly suggesting a kid will be the workplace boss of women shopping for lingerie is not mysogyny. If anything, the undertone of that joke is that the kid is a 'nerd'. I bet youre a ton of fun to hang out with irl. btw, my wife does all the lsundry, vleaning, dishes, etc. I do all the yardwork, maintenance, repairs, etc. OMG typical gender roles - its sexism lol.

Just to widen that perceived gap between socially inept nerdy lad gamers and 'normal' people a teeny bit

what do you mean "perceived"? There really is a gap, and it happens to be called "social ineptness", just that is not the sole province of geeks.
