Offensive Jokes. More Than A Joke?

I understand men see things from a different point of view, and do not see the history full of struggle. But to just blatantly refuse to see the offense in the jokes of many other tv shows and movies, and of late Seth MacFarlane, or even refuse to admit that when women are getting offended it might be legitimate.

Why must a women that is upset at being publicly degraded for over 3hrs be considered over sensitive or a "Femi-Nazi". Why can't it just be that seeing only our bodies and nothing more is offensive and/or hurts?

Is it too hard to want to be able to get a job without the manager considering if I'm hot enough or beautiful enough? But of course I can't be too "slutty". We walk such a fine line, but can never win.
We are sought after for our looks but not our brains, but when it comes down to it we must also exceed the intelligence of a man in the same field. We must be attractive, sexual but not overly, and smart. But of course only consider our body or only consider it first. If we never stand up for it then nothing will ever change.
