Dirty Knickers Joke? Middle-Aged Bat Goes Bat-Sh#t!
Professor Richard Ned Lebow, 76, of King’s College, London, was in a lift at an academic convention in San Francisco.

Instead of saying a floor, Lebow smiled and asked for the women’s lingerie department “and all his buddies laughed,” whined an uptight bint.
“After they walked out, the woman standing next to me turned to me and said, ‘I wonder if we should have told them that it is no longer acceptable to make these jokes!”
Good belly-laugh stuff, yeah?
Not so much the old guy’s mild jest – and he disputes the accuracy of the story – but the whining bint’s response.
Who the HELL does she think she is, to tell him, or ANYBODY, what we may joke about?
Yes, the humourless shrew may be laughable, to normal human beings….

Simona Sharoni (born 1961) is a feminist scholar and activist who is currently Professor of Women’s and Gender Studies at Merrimack College (wikipedia)

…until we learn she has tried to launch a witch-hunt against Lebow and logically against everybody who doesn’t share the daft middle-aged bat’s inability to crack a smile.
Sourpuss Sharoni was so incensed by the harmless quip that she and some other demented dorkess REPORTED him to the International Studies Association, which was holding the convention.
The ISA referred the whine to their Committee on Professional Rights and Responsibilities.

That crackpot gang determined that Lebow had violated the conduct code.
And worse!
The Naughty Professor had tried to make the Nutty Professor see reason. He chose to reach out to Prof. Sharoni, and termed her complaint ‘frivolous
Prof. Lebow has refused to apologise.
What has the old guy got to apologise for?
Was Nutjob Sharoni put out because she doesn’t believe in wearing underwear and was offended at the implication she does?

So many crazed women in colleges.
No wonder so many millenials are so mixed up.
Sorry, that’s sexist.
There are lots of terrible leftist male professors too.

It might be tempting to scoff at this woman’s intolerance but then you have to think that she wants to shut down our right to make a joke.
Not just this professor man but all of us, and that is what is really UNACCEPTABLE.
We have to clean up the universities and get rid of these self-righteous censorious teachers.
My own kids had a ton of propaganda shovelled into them at their uni but they had a family who knew enough about politics and history to help them fight back in the class-rooms.
I hate to say it but a lot of parents don’t know what goes on and a lot don’t even care.
The problem has to be fixed soon, otherwise my kids’ kids will grow up in something like a twilight zone where they need to look around before they crack a joke incase horrors like Sharoni overhear something that gets up her nose and she runs off to inform on them.

She is an embarrassment to her sex.
Not her ‘gender!’ She is not a page in a grammar textbook. That’s where the word ‘gender’ belongs.
Men and women who are well-balanced human beings are always making jokes based on sex, and the differences between the two sexes.
We women do not throw tantrums when we hear a joke against our sex, not if we are normal.
The same goes for men.
Shroni is very definitely not normal, but then I suppose she would not get a professorial job in an American college if she were.
I regret to add that UK and Canadian and Australasian colleges are as bad as those in the USA.

‘Gender Studies?’
When did universities start creating departments called such silly names?

Very sad woman, I would say, with no sense of humor at all.
