Sep 15, 2016 at 14:11 comment added rene Mod @KateGregory I do get the notion that I need to be mindful about messages I post and how they are perceived by others. Now for this specific case there is no doubt but let's assume good faith for a moment. How am I going to learn that I crossed a line if I'm only flagged? I'm much more in favor to bring it up and then use the flags when I'm met with resistance. It is not I care much about which body parts we can or can't discuss but I'm more looking for an option where everything is allowed until someone calls it rude. But I'm eager to learn if that approach has been proven to be a failure.
Sep 15, 2016 at 13:36 comment added Kate Gregory Are there words for "elbow" or "toe" that carry a sense of dislike for the person whose elbow or toe it is, or an objectification of the person? If there were, would it be ok to use those words in a joke about elbows or toes? The issue here is more than just the joking, it includes the actual disrespectful words being used. Most posters would not say "tits" to their mother, or religious leader, or some other adult they greatly respect. They know it's not a respectful word. Defending a right to talk that way in the presence of someone who told them it is hurtful seems ... unusual to me.

Sep 15, 2016 at 10:21 comment added anon @ArtOfCode totally agree. I think much of this answer is good, Particularly the explanation about the RO. As if that was misconstrued, it's good to point this out.

Sep 15, 2016 at 10:20 comment added ArtOfCode I'd hesitate to say any jokes about tits are okay, actually, given the quote from Be Nice I picked out. Most body parts, fine, but once you start joking about private body parts, you're seriously toeing the line. Still, I can't fault the rest of this answer.
