An offensive term is offensive no matter who uses it. I would never imagine that it's ok to use words offensive to women as long as it's to another woman or part of "comedy" because I'm a woman. Either the terms are offensive or they aren't regardless of who uses them, and they aren't ever funny. The only time it's ever acceptable to use offensive terms are for identification of those terms and to condemn them.
