      I say this to myself so much lately. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills with the number of garbage comics. Then I get downvoted into oblivion for questioning it - “You just don’t understand humor.”

        I think the joke is that one would expect premarital sex to be between partners in a relationship, but technically any sex between two unmarried persons fits the definition? It’s extremely forced, to say the least

      I think part of the joke is that it seems to me that some people think that even if someone is in a committed romantic relationship, it’s okay to sleep with others until they’re married because a committed romantic relationship is not official; it’s informal. In other words, it’s only cheating if they’re married. Otherwise, it’s fair game because it’s not official.

    Maybe it’s funny to a certain demographic of hardcore Christian incels? Not sure.
