Comedians are meant to make us laugh, but sometimes they can get offensive by being sexist, or by criticising other religions, cultures or ways of living. I think this kind of comedy needs to be done carefully and in proportion, or it can create a great deal of fuss over something you thought would be interpreted as a joke. Sacha Baron Cohen (opposite left), caused a lot of controversy with his comedy, as to some he overstepped the line. Overall it's probably best to steer clear of these kinds of jokes, as even if their innocently done, if they go wrong, they could cost you a lot more than what they were worth.
