I don't think people are implying that. They're just pointing out the hypocrisy. An ugly man wouldn't like it if people judged him solely by his looks yet he feels the need to do it to women. You would think he would be the most empathetic. It's like being surprised if a black person says something racist or a women…

Why is it always the woman's job to be nice a.k.a. give a man what he wants? Never is it the man's responsibility to be nice a.k.a. give a woman what she wants which is to be left alone.

You just reminded me that I forgot to mention my mom handles all money matters similar to your mom. My mom's a better communicator than my 'man of few words-type' dad. So, she's better at dealing with bills and handling business over the phone. However, my dad is very dependable. He's more about action than talking…

Of course. Everyone deserves to be a main character in their own life instead of always being in the supporter role.

My grandma had the same experience. Despite the stereotype, it seems like men flourish more inside traditional marriage while women flourish more outside traditional marriage. No wonder conservative old men yearn for the good old days.

I mean, she played Joan Jett which earned her cool points in my book. I'd like to think Joan Jett and Kristen Stewart were having feminist conversations during breaks on the set of The Runaways.

Is it really that hard for some guys to figure out that it's painful? All it takes is common sense and empathy to imagine why you shouldn't just shove your way into a woman's anus. Women get bombarded with the important message all the time that men's penises and balls are sensitive so FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DON'T USE…

Good for you. It must have been refreshing for the sexy dudes to just have you speak to them like a person instead of a potential sex toy. I'd imagine being a super hottie who's constantly sexually desired can be great sometimes but it can be frustrating when you just want people to see you as more than a pretty face.…

Recently? Well, he agreed to the Monty Python reunion in order to pay his third wife's alimony, and has complained about it incessantly... but that's not very funny, is it?

Straight white dudes are nowhere near as harshly lambasted as minorities in jokes and it's because historically, they aren't the group that's easiest to call inferior. I have no power to take away his right to say things no matter how ignorant his statements but smart comedians don't go for the cheap laughs. A a…

Besides, John Cleese is a reactionary fossil. We've known this for years. He's grumpy and sexist and conservative and deeply unpleasant, but gets a pass for having been a Python and a Fawlty - he's a brilliant comedian, but that doesn't mean he has to be an admirable human being.

It's not on me. I have a right to dislike a joke that's only purpose is to make me feel bad about being a woman as if I don't have enough stuff around me reminding me I'm inferior. The lack of creativity is why the joke is sexist. The punchline is women. If he wanted to be creative, he should have made the punchline…

Right, but let a female comedian 'joke' about men (white men, specifically) being 'privileged, entitled, narcissistic, chemically unbalanced due to testosterone, emotionally-stunted, dangerous, prone to violence, etc" and see how thick-skinned these guys are.

If a woman doesn't laugh at a sexist joke then she's humorless. Yet if a black person doesn't laugh at a racist joke or a gay person doesn't laugh at a homophobic joke, are they also humorless?

People, feminist or not, don't find every joke a person says funny. Comedy is subjective and just because people don't laugh at one kind of joke doesn't mean they never laugh every at jokes. "Feminist are humorless" is just another charge made by people who never believed in equality to begin with, similar to…

On top of that, giving the condescending explanation of what a comedian is as if people don't know what comedians do. Just because someone's a comedian does mean all their jokes are winners. Even the best comedians have clunkers especially if they get lazy and resort to scraping the bottom of the barrel.

You're right. Women get deluded into thinking that a bad man is better than no man and a bad marriage is better than being single. Look at the way George Clooney's single life was viewed compared to Jennifer Aniston's single life. We celebrate men being bachelors but we lament women being single. As if men can't get…

This is exactly what I mean. This type of talk is just a backhanded compliment. The power behind the throne or being the backbone is the usual compliment given to women. Notice how it always stresses women being behind or in the back. Yet I'm supposed to see this as the better position? I don't see men envying this…

A lot of truth is said in jest. It's hard to laugh at a joke that's just reminding you of your inferior status. This 'joke' doesn't make me laugh. It does the opposite; it depresses me because it reminds me of the reality of gender politics. So, let me get this straight: not only do I as a woman make less than a man…

Yeah. Sounds like she set the bar too high. That dude is going to have a hard time finding a woman like that. Even though women are pressured to be perfect, most of us fall short of it. I hope he doesn't give into the temptation of demanding too much of his partner. As a girl, I feel like my dad set a realistic…
