Abstract:
Analyzes sexist Jewish jokes directed against women and compares them with antisemitic jokes - usually directed against Jewish men. Argues that Jewish jokes tend to transfer antisemitic stereotypes onto Jewish women, especially wives or "JAP"s, such as the Jews' unrestrained passion for money. Obscene jokes which are told in all-male groups, or by men to women, are meant to dominate and humiliate women, while women who tell such jokes are expressing self-defense in the same way that Jews will tell antisemitic jokes.
