If you cross an icy Eskimo with a hot-blooded Latino does the baby have a normal body temperature? ---

> [@](#): > > In extreme cold, some northern people are capable (via the autonomic nervous system) of shunting blood from one artery to another so that temperature can be reduced in the extremities without affecting more important organs. I have Eskimo blood in me and I have that. I think. In my fingers. Sometimes one or more turns completely white in cold weather. It hurts though. It runs in the family, but I always supposed it was a genetic defect. Although perhaps Eskimo chicks can shut off blood to the pussy. That’d make it cold. On the other hand, there are no organ more important that the pussy. ---

You’re a hypersensitive pussy who gets Shocked and Dismayed when someone uses a throwaway line from a movie. The whole thing is absolutely absurd.

It’s a throwaway troll OP from a throwaway joke in a movie that is widely considered a cultural reference point. Nobody’s a bigot here, you stupid, stupid newbs. First of all, I’m a woman, and I have a pussy, I am not one. Second of all, I’ve been here for three years, hardly a newb, though I guess I should be bowing down to your 2000ness. Third of all, clearly some people believe Eskimos or Inuit are, actually, colder than other people; **Tao** is talking about shit that _actually happened to him_. Note I never called you a bigot; you just have bad taste in jokes. What you don’t get is that just because people may not actually think women of a certain ethnicity have genitals of a certain temperature, talking about that shit, particularly in a jocular manner, diminishes women (and exoticizes people of color). It reduces them to holes that men can fuck. I know you don’t believe this because it’s a bit too complex for you to get your little brain around. It’s not just the glass ceiling and less money for the same job that oppress women. It’s being seen merely as objects for male pleasure. I don’t care if it’s from a movie (which I’ve seen, by the way), I don’t care if it’s meant to be funny, I don’t care that real army men have chanted it, I don’t care that the OP was a troll. I care that others responded in kind, and the one person who spoke out against it got warned, and I care that it took “nigger” for someone to actually do something about that thread. I get SHOCKED and DISMAYED when a board that’s supposed to be filled with smart, enlightened people pulls shit like this. ---

Sometimes women are only interested in men for sexual reasons. Sometimes men are only interested in women for sexual reasons. Sometimes they even make jokes with punchlines having to do with genitalia. This diminishes absolutely nobody but it does upset some offenderati. Don’t get your panties in a bunch about it. I’d also point out that scientific backing has been provided for the fact that Eskimos metabolic processes are a bit different from the norm, which might cause different body temperature. So evidently a joke about Eskimos (or, I guess, Alaskans?) having cold vaginas is sexist and just plain wrong as is plays on a false ‘exoticness’, but saying that Eskimos might have warmer genitals than the norm is just plain ol’ deductive reasoning. Blarg. ---

You’re not joking are you. You sure seem to hold men in such low esteem. I’m going to let you in on a secret.In all my 58 years of life, I’ve never been in a social situation involving men only where the cold Eslimo pussy line would have drawn disapproval. Its stupid, its funny and no one believes it.

> [@liberty3701](#): > > First of all, I’m a woman, and I have a pussy She said pussy. hi-hi-hi But I guess that rules out dirty limericks. Damn, I kinda liked those. So what kinda jokes are still ok? People have been making jokes about sex, women, men, shit, piss, farts, the neighbours, the rulers and the bloody rich bastards since at least 4000 years ago, when the oldest know joke was first chiselled into clay tablet - some lame joke about a woman farting. Fucking sexist Sumerians! If this upsets you, you’ve got the whole of human history and the human race to piss you off. Including btw. Eskimos from Greenland, which have many jokes about us innocent and horrible oppressed Danes. ---

It runs in the family, but I always supposed it was a genetic defect. This is most likely primary [Raynaud’s](http://www.nlm.nih.gov/MEDLINEPLUS/ency/article/000412.htm) phenomenon. It can be treated with calcium channel blockers or, (if you have low blood pressure or just like the side effects and have money to burn or really great insurance) lower-than-usual-doses of sildenafil citrate, “VIAGRA®.”[sup]1[/sup] 1 The latter option yielded multiple benefits for me during the past few years’ seal hunts. ---

> [@Diogenes\_the\_Cynic](#): > > I heard the “Eskimo pussy” cadence call in basic training several years before _Full Metal Jacket_ came out, so yeah, it was real. I also learned that a green grasshopper’s got a red asshole, but I never believed the story about the monkey from the coconut grove. Yup, and there were also “two old ladies were lying in bed, one rolled over to the other and said…” And “C-130 rolling down the strip, airborne daddy on a one way trip” “If I should die in a combat zone, box me up and send me home” “I don’t know but I’ve been told, Eskimo pussy is mighty cold” “Jodie’s got your girl and gone” There are many, many examples of this stuff that I mindlessly repeated as I ran my ass off in formation, because I had to. I’m failing to see the outrage with respect to it being some stupid called cadence in a military formation. And no, Asian pussy most definetely does NOT taste like rice, it’s more of a subtle blend of fish, wasabi and pickled ginger, with a slight touch of soy. ---

The chopsticks can be jammed up there, but to type the keys, something would have to come out and press down on them. But hold on! Maybe they could type using the chopsticks. Hmmm. I think I just thought of a suggestion to make to a couple of bars. ---
