            no i just don’t fucking understand why the naked woman matters here.

            Could be fucking anything, a pile of a billion dollars. Three turtles, or a goat, it’s the same joke.

              I don’t think it’s the same joke when it’s three turtles or a goat, because the joke is “I think I can get close enough…to engage in unspecified sex acts with this woman.”

              You think the same chemicals that turned the frickin frogs gay is responsible for this aversion to sexual thoughts? “Could it not be a naked woman? That clutches my pearls.”

                “I think I can get close enough…to engage in unspecified sex acts with this woman.”

                that’s what i would assume, but then again it never states anything, so this is like walking into a fucking storage shed and seeing a colonoscopy going on. It’s just fucking weird.

              Exactly, it’s the same joke regardless so why get bent out of shape over it?

                i mean yeah, i guess so, but that’s not what im confused over.

                I just want to know why specifically it was written with a nude woman? It never alluded to anything in particular.

                  Is it really that confusing? If it had said there was a pot of gold the implication is clear that the person who reaches it will be rich. You ask “why a nude woman?” and the answer is simply because, just like being rich, desiring a sexual partner is a common desire.

      Only straight men are mathematicians, physicists and engineers. This is why the joke is framed this way.

      See: responses from OP, valiantly defending his choice to “piss people off”, instead of noticing the joke is just yet another reminder that men are default.

      After all, sexism is over, and STEM isn’t hostile to women/non-heteronormative people. It’s all in our head.

        that’s the vibe i’m getting, but it’s a really fucking weird premise for a hypothetical regardless.

        “there are a fisher, a farmer, and a welder in a bar, on the other side is cthulhu” is basically how it’s worded

        Hi there friend, I am here to inform you that many woman also like the titty. Gay girls exist my friend, and the gender of the three professionals is never specified.

        I’ll assume ya ain’t trying to be homophobic my buddy but I hope you keep that in mind for future refference.

        Edit racism comment was another guy, sorry, very tired
