This chap is from my neck of the woods and I've seen him perform on stage before, although not this particular piece.




He puts another face on the whole "rape culture" thing that's going on now, and made me question my assumptions about how I would act/feel in his shoes.

I got through about 30 seconds before I had to turn it off it's not the subject matter that bothers it's that he delivers it in a manner I find obnoxious. This is a much better rape joke imo.

Hm, I didn't expect that video to end up like that. Interesting point.

If you had watched the rest of the video you'd have known that it really, really wasn't a rape joke.

I love Louie C.K, easily one of my favorites.

While I can see why someone might not care for the delivery, the first video isn't really a joke.

Yeah watched it a second time (this time all the way though) he starts if off as though he's doing a joke but it seems it's to be more about the consequences of people treating rape with a callous attitude as the video progresses which seems like an OK message to me.

Following representations from users I am re-opening the thread for comment.

I always assumed that if I had been statutorily raped as a young teen by my sexy teacher I would be totally stoked.

Maybe not.

I'm glad you reopened this, KK, as it really tells the story most guys don't expect to see-a young boy gets violated by his assumed attractive teacher and all his buddies slap his back and tell him good job, he's a hero. That's what we expect. Seeing it isn't the case for him...it's surprising. And perhaps it's not as awesome as we all thought it would be when we were teens. Are you feeling a bit different from your original disgusted attitude, seeing as you were willing to reopen? I'm not being snarky, I'm genuinely curious. Text doesn't really allow for good tone, and I realize that's a sentence that could have gone either way, so I wanted to clarify to head off any questions.
