The joke relies on the widespread belief that feminists have no sense of humor and are especially unamused by jokes about feminism.

The (slightly) better version has the punchline "One - and it's not funny." All lightbulb jokes are the same, though, hence the metajoke:

How many members of a specific minority group does it take to change a lightbulb?

X - one to change the bulb, the rest to behave in a manner stereotypical of their group.

This one was told to me by my Catholic HS Latin teacher

Jesus is standing in the Temple on the Mount of Olives, and a crowd of people brings a woman to him.
"Jesus," they say, "this woman was caught in the midst of committing adultery. By the laws of Moses, she is to be stoned to death, but what do you say we should do?"
Jesus says to them "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."
At this point, a rock flies from the back of the crowd and strikes the woman in the arm. Jesus frowns slightly and says, louder this time, "I say again, let he who is without sin cast the first stone."
Th crowd murmurs softly, and another rock flies from the back of the group, striking the woman in the shoulder and drawing blood. Jesus, at this point visibly annoyed, turns to the crowd and says even louder, "I SAY ONCE MORE, MAY HE WHO IS WITHOUT SIN CAST THE FIRST STONE."
A third rock flies from the back of the crowd and strikes the woman in the head, knocking her unconscious. Jesus, at this point fuming, looks to where the stone came from, and shouts,
"Dammit, Mom, sometimes you REALLY piss me off."

A dad joke from when I was growing up popped into my head yesterday:

Do you know how Staten Island in New York City got it's name?

In the 15th century there was an expedition to the New World that was running low on supplies. Every day they would send their smallest fleetest crew member, a German, to the crow's nest to see if he could see land. After weeks one day he finally shouts out <mock German accent> "IZ ZTAT AN ISLAND!?!?!?"

For this joke we will say the guys names are Bob and Phil.

Bob: "Phil, I have a problem. Every time I am near my girlfriend I become very aroused and get an erection. I am worried she might notice, And I have a date with her tonight!!!"

Phil: "That's an easy solution, Bobby boy! just take some duct tape and tape your dick to the side of your leg. Even if you get a boner, she won't notice!"

Bob: "That's great advice! I'll do that."

The next day Bob comes up to Phil and is really upset.

Bob: "She dumped me, Phil, I'm single now!!!"

Phil: "Why? What happened?"

Bob: "Well, I did what you said and I duct taped my dick to the side of my leg. I went to her house and when she answered the door she had on the sexiest dress I have ever seen!"

Phil: "Yeah, and then what happened?"

Bob: "I kicked her in the head..."
