Now I second this. As a(n aspiring) comedian, I already feel like jokes about pronouns are only playable in rural shitty areas. Nowhere in the cities does that kind of "silly gay people" humor play. because humor is about punching up, and lgbt individuals are nowhere near being a full accepted part of the human experience. we won't have full acceptance of lgbt people in 20 years, but hey, pronoun jokes will definitely be reserved for shitty old people.

Thank you for not doing them even if you possibly could get away with it at some shows. Larry the Cable Guy is a millionaire but you know his grandchildren are going to be ashamed of him as they go to college using money made by telling jokes about trans people in bathrooms. It’s easy but it’s wrong and we all know it.
