Wait a minute, so...

1. If he makes a dick joke, women drop out of engineering teams.

2. If he makes a breasts joke, women drop out of engineering teams.

So basically women in general prefer that human parts not be mentioned in jokes, but men like human parts. Interesting. I'm taking notes.

Nah. The point is, don't make your argument in obnoxious, off-putting, offensive terms.

[Supermancho]

What was offensive about it?

[jmull]

The challenge is to be able to understand how a particular post would appear to various other people who are unlike yourself. So I think you should answer that question yourself. Expend some effort or imagination, or else there’s no point.

Thank you, but there’s hardly any point in arguing with a rock. You might be making great points, but at the end of the day, observers see a man talking to a rock. The rock may roll at some point, through forces beyond yourself

Your comments aren't offensive, but they seem like externalizing your own issues. Asking someone to consider what's offensive isn't constructive, when you aren't able to describe what you think is offensive and why.

I just imagined what if we have to consider other civilizations for our posts and what they might be offended by.

For example, the civilization of Dune is offended by any mention of complex "thinking machines", so any programming topic to them would be like an article full of dick jokes.

Imagine we get visited by aliens, but no matter what we do, they get gravely offended, and we can't understand why.

The joke denies that the reader may be not male. It also shows women where their place is: near the man’s genitals. I can’t see how this is not offensive.
