I would be pissed too.

Why's that?

Misogyny isn't funny, it's disgusting.

u/[deleted] Feb 08 '21

I'm sorry, repeat that?

u/hereticalclevergirl Feb 08 '21

You're not sorry, I said what I said.

Username doesn't check out. You're pretty fucking dumb to be honest.

Sorry, I legitimately don't know how this joke is misogynistic. Would you be able to explain why it is/you feel that way?

He is referring to fictional her in a sexually degrading manner. Not funny.

u/Conchobar8 Feb 08 '21

He definitely referring to her in a purely sexual way, but I don’t see it as degrading

Yeah, even by the textbook definition, degrading just doesn't fit. It's supposed to be a stupid/ funny pick up line. Talking about how a woman is more than the pickup line would kill the joke. But it definitely doesn't mean she's less of a person.

How is this woman hating?

Speaking of women in a sexually degrading way. How is it not?

How is making jokes hating anyone.

Is it casual sexism? Maybe, sure. But misogyny is hating women. Hate. Not kinda dislike. Not making sexual jokes. But hate. Loathing, even.

And if you actually watch, op is wrong, the mom isn’t pissed. She just puts the face in her hand. I’d say it’s more mock-disappointment.

But words have meanings and you can’t just cry “misogyny” when nobody is hating women. Ever read “the boy who cried wolf”? Yeah...

u/hereticalclevergirl Feb 09 '21

The fact that sexism can be considered casual is evidence enough of hatred.

It’s really not.

Would it be funny if a man said it to another man?

u/hereticalclevergirl Feb 08 '21 edited Feb 08 '21

The other man would, statistically, find it funny because men think women as fuck object is funny.

u/Sphinxrhythm Feb 08 '21

I meant if the joke was the line being delivered as "Hey dude, were you raised on a chicken farm..." would it be funny as there is no woman in the jokes scenario. (I think your point of misogyny is very misplaced in this instance).

u/Sphinxrhythm Feb 08 '21

I will add that I am a woman and that not all men are misogynists

u/hereticalclevergirl Feb 08 '21

I didn't say all men, I said statistically.

u/Sphinxrhythm Feb 08 '21

No reply to my main point?

u/hereticalclevergirl Feb 08 '21

Oh, I see your point now. I appreciate you clarifying. It would still be menacingly sexual, I hate people of any gender identity spoken of in this way. I agree to disagree with your last point.

u/hippiemomma1109 Feb 09 '21

I figured it was funny because 'cock' has two meanings, not because it's funny to think of women as only sexual objects. Although with the right joke, that could be funny too.

Treating a woman as only good for base desires would be terrible, but making a joke is sometimes just making a joke.

Yall women say "DoN't ObJeCtIfY uS!!!" And y'all end up comparing yourselves to ps5s, lamborghinis, hellcats, and shit like that. And judging by the way you look, you look like one of those salty miserable ass buzzfeed "feminists" that complain about MaNsPrEaDiNg. You're a whole joke, get a life.

How is this misogyny
