A woman in the office raged at me for makin one yesterday, wondering how people feel about them in general.

I usually find them fairly funny, but in an OMG thats so wrong sort of way, but I still laugh.

I think they're funny if it's clear the joke is light-hearted.

As long as they're done in moderation and it's clear that the person is joking, I think they can be very funny. However, there are way too many people that say them way too often and then start treating women poorly.

A woman goes into a library and says, "I..." The librarian interrupts and says, "Shouldn't you be in the kitchen?"

Gets me everytime

On-topic, I see no harm in them, just a light jab at a sterotype.

I think while they are light hearted to type on a message board, they aren't funny to say to someone you aren't close with in real life.

I mean, I couldn't care less about jokes on the internet. And I don't mind if my brother or close friends make "in the kitchen" jokes to me. But I would not like someone I barely know to make jokes like that in real life.

Why do most homes have a window above the kitchen sink?

It gives women a point of view. :P

So long as they aren't used excessively I don't mind them.

I don't think twice about making them, nobody is ever around to be offended since I never say them near the kitchen.

What's the worst thing about catching your wife in bed with another woman?
Who's in the kitchen?

I use them all the time, because the only people who would be offended by them are in the kitchen anyways.
