This video is meant to allow the viewer to analyze how comedy and sexism effect each other. What comedy crosses the line? Where is that line? When does it become okay or necessary to cross that line?

Comedy is just as sexist as most of society. But I don't really understand the thesis of this video since most of these clips aren't comedy but dumb reality shows and news commentary.

You also only seem to include clips that have the women themselves as the butt of the joke, rather than comedy that mocks sexism.

@zammmerjammer This is simply meant to be representative of a media representation of women through humor. I would categorize it as asking the question: What are told to laugh at women for?

It's funny cause it's true!
