A Survivor's Perspective on Humor as a Coping Mechanism

This isn't a joke, but I'm a survivor and use humor to cope. I find these extremely funny, so please leave the people writing these alone šŸ˜­

Alright, listen up, you're not the sharpest tool in the shed, I can tell. The author here is saying they are a survivor, meaning theyā€™ve been through something really rough. Now, instead of being sad all the time, they use humor to help them feel better. They also find other people's jokes funny, so they are telling everyone to leave those people alone. Get it?

I second this I was sexually abused by my childminder for a few months when I was around 5 or 6 and I still don't get why people get pressed about rape jokes their literally just jokes

Yup me too. For some reason it's a way we cope. My sense of humour is next level now. Might buy the kiddy fucker a small kid for xmas.

I'm against sexual abuse but when I hear someone say the word rape I just think they are joking

Iā€™m here with you I use it to cope

Ok I'm sorry for what you've been through but it's the fact that there are people here literally saying rape is good and there is someone named killer of women so there's that

I think rape is something to joke about because women shout 'rape' all the time when they are not in any danger of being raped

it's only meant to be funny for the rapist. you should feel shame and humiliation

Way ro take one for the team!!
