Ahhhahahahah I love joking about how it's funny to infantalise women and ensure they have no real political or social power...gosh...I don't get why people get all uptight about this I mean if I were to say the same about men I'm sure everyone would laugh!

Isn't that always the accusation?

I'd like to point out that even when people make sexist jokes about women, I do not respond with sexist jokes about men. I think it is counter-productive and plays too well into the hands of anti-feminists. Nonetheless, there is this underlying assumption that as a feminist I must belittle and think poorly of men when that is not at all true or supportable.
