I have a genuine question, not even trying to be antagonistic or offend anybody so apologies in advance... for the people who say rape jokes aren't funny, how do you feel it differs from jokes about cancer/death or other sensitive subjects and would you have a different opinion if somebody like Frankie Boyle was to joke about it?

Like I say a genuine question.
