I'm older and more experienced than Sunil too and I thought it was funny. I didn't think he was serious and wasn't threatened by his remark at all.

Eggs. The living legend needs eggs. Or maybe another milk.

Me, either. I think of long-term male 'Ffistas as friends who have naughty joke privileges.
Although I appreciate Karl's protectiveness, I honestly didn't see anything offensive in it at all.
God knows, I am a crass chick. And dude, we objectify men here! A lot! Sometimes. Ok, a lot.

My favorite time to objectify Dean is when he is breaking the windows out of the Impala with that crowbar/tire iron thingy. The t shirt, the sweat, the arms. He is objectified.

Compassionately intolerant
I didn't give that comment much brain space but what did cross my mind was, "Nah. Don't."
Which tangentially reminded me of a conversation with male co-workers about some trashy line they'd heard another guy use. I made some offhanded snark like, "Shuh! That would never work on a woman!" They all turned toward me with apologetic looks, "Um. Well. Yeah. Pretty much every time." I despaired for my kind.

Because books.
OMG I am never going away from my internets again. I missed all the spicy brain talk! Woe!
Wow, I have a lot to think about now. Including, apparently, Dean breaking the Impala's back window. Which is not quite when I objectify, but more when I want to cuddle him and make him tea.

Thanks. I do apologize if my joke caused offense. I did consider whether or not to post it, but, like Erin said, I figured I had naughty joke privileges.
Which is not quite when I objectify, but more when I want to cuddle him and make him tea.
And we're back to the tea again!

Seriously. Maybe I'm a Sensitive New Age Gal!
I objectify Dean most when he's fixing the car. Or wearing a tux. Or being compassionate to a little boy who's been traumatized. Or smirking. Or chewing on a pen.
Um.

Exactly.
