    Please don’t make rape ‘jokes’. I’m not a bloke but it’d be no more acceptable if I was.

      Would have never thought this could be remotely connected to a rape joke. I mean your anus is a metaphor for your wallet. Sorry

        I’m not sure if English is your first language (if not, you write it very well). Direct translations can cause all sorts of misunderstandings. For a native English speaker, that is a rape joke.

          Hi, no english is not my first language, thank you for the compliment tho.

          Anyway, another word that I could have used would have been “prepare to get fucked” still sexual; is it still “rapey” ?

          So if someone is eating a really spicy chili and I say “Prepare your anus”.

          Is it a rape joke ?

          Not a native speaker either but I feel presenting the original comment as a rape joke is a stretch.

          Context matters.

          Also breaking news, plenty of Police forces and prison guards are able to kindly ask you to “prepare your anus” and in a very much legal manner. This is how I understood the original comment.
