Looking For Humor In The Feminine World

pdb's favorite feminist joke:

Q:  How many feminists does it take to screw in a light bulb?
A:  That's not funny!

At a family dinner this Sunday, my blog came up in conversation, and my Mom expressed a level of distaste for a throwaway line in this post, having just (in my head) berated a youth for scratching up a game and bringing it back late, I close with:

Oh, and can you ask your mom to stop by?  Ask her to wear that yellow low-cut sundress.

Personally, I thought it was a good joke, and like all good jokes, had an element of truth to it.  His mom is hot, does have a habit of wearing skimpy clothes, and you can't blame me for that.  A quick poll around the table revealed that most females and my Dad disapproved.  Mrs pdb and mathman thought it was pretty funny.

So, I'm asking you, fair readership, what's your take?  I've whipped up a poll to your left there with I think the most likely objections.  If you have no opinion on the joke, just mark it as "Funny", since blog-city's cheap ass poll widget only allows for four responses.

Additional comments in the comments would be welcome.

I'm just trying to gather some data on the female sense of humor.
