I had a feeling that might be your idea of humour! At least you know to avoid sex jokes around women: if they're misogynistic jokes you're a lost cause anyway, because they indicate a derogatory attitude towards women which isn't usually kept in a neat little box away from actual women.
How bad are your "jokes" if you feel you have to avoid making them around women?
Some might be okay but some definitely are not. Maybe gay jokes are okay. But once a girl from work actually THOUGHT I was gay because I joked about it so much.
If she seems like the type to not be weirded out I might go for it. It depends on the girl and the joke but usually I don't bother unless I know her already. So like with a female coworker I will, and have, made many sex jokes. But if I'm just meeting a girl, I don't think the benefits of trying to make sex jokes outweigh the risks.

That's wrong, but not as wrong as being a pedohpile!
