Why are sexual jokes wrong?

This sounds a lot like the oppressive sexual taboos of the Dark Ages (i.e.
before 1964), that we've supposedly evolved away from, rearing its ugly head
again ... to claim that it is self-evidently wrong.  Not just wrong, but
self-evidently wrong.

Next, we'll be hearing that saying "thigh" and "breast" (even in reference to
chicken) shall be immoral...
