Oh, and I love it! How come you hate it?
Well, I hate to get all serious - but that is the type of joke that disgustingly sexist men have used to put down women - presumably for millenia.
I have always taken a strong political stand on those jokes - and I do the same when they are used on men.
I think it is a real put down - and would likely offend a lot of men.
Sorry to raise it on a silly thread...
It's OK, dlowan, I didn't mean to offend anyone. I'm sorry.
I like this joke because jokes that reverse the usual sexist slant are so rare. Or maybe I just haven't heard them, myself?
I also like it because it was Mr. Kitten who told it to me. I love that guy.
