Synopsis

A modern, feminist take on the classic joke book to amuse and empower readers who are tired of being the punchline.

A man walks into a bar. It’s a low one, so he gets a promotion within his first six months on the job.
 
Four comedy writers transform classic joke setups into sharp commentary about the everyday and structural sexism that pervades all facets of life. Jokes to Offend Men arms readers with humorous quips to shut down workplace underminers, condescending uncles, and dismissive doctors, or to share with their exhausted friends at the end of a long day. 

A cutting, cathartic spin on the old-fashioned joke book, Jokes to Offend Menis a refreshing reclamation of a tired form for anyone who's ever been told to “lighten up, it's just a joke!”
