47. I understood and didn't find it funny

Partially without context clues it reads poorly, but also it's still something way too many people in our society believe. While it's often true that tragedy plus time equals comedy, time is an important aspect because right now, it still hurts so many people.

Not speaking for anyone else, but I wasn't offended because it was an attempt at being funny, and it wasn't punching down more trying to demonstrate the absurdity of people who think Trump is a resolute leader and paragon of masculinity and think women are too emotional as you said. But many of those people will just twist themselves into a pretzel to just take a position against their dear leader.
