Not to you. And that's ok.
I see that this joke is satire, making fun of those people now. Which is fine, just not my cup of tea since I grew up with people who actually believed that and weren't using it sarcastically.
I think it would only be funny to other abuse-condoning misogynists
You would be wrong. It's making fun of those type of people.
It's not in your lane, that's fine. Not a big deal to miss a dumb joke.
With the feedback you're getting it seems to be falling flat then - a joke that's more easily interpreted as perpetuating the issue is not going to have that intended outcome
Gee I didn't notice, thanks?
Going by the popular votes, no, actually.
