If only you could use a remote control
To get a woman to stop saying feminism and say fuck me. Yeah right, so not cute. Everybody knows, feminists do it better.
Thanks to Jo for the link. And no I don't have a sense of humor.

if only women had a remote that kept men from make sexist cartoons.. sigh...
Like trying to eat soup with a fork, somedays.
And no I don't have a sense of humor.
What?! You don't think forcing a woman to do things she doesn't want to do for someone that doesn't consider her basic human rights is funny?
Lighten up and get over yourselves and stop making everything a crime against women.

and i love how the couples in stupid things like this are always barbie-like females and flabby unattractive males.

What the Hell is this?! Who had enough time to make this thing? and I agree with nconfai, the women are always the Western ideal and the men are disgusting.
I want a remote that makes men see women as human beings. I suppose it's equally possible.
ahh! sorry about the triple post! :(
I apparently don't have a sense of humor either! Well said, Samhita.
Not very original... Can you say Stepford Wives? Lovely. Just lovely.
This not only makes the man unusually unattractive, but also makes him (and presumably all men?) out to be a complete moron. Maybe I'm just privileged to know a lot of decent guys, but the men I know might just be smart enough to realize that if they don't spend all day ordering their s.o. to shut up and be their personal maid/waitress/prostitute, she maybe just maybe might be -voluntarily- interested in sex.
Ah, misogynist jokes and their offensive views of men -and- women. Hi-fuckin-larious.
Dear Feministing Folks,
I can't thank you enough for posting all of these gender stereo-typed videos, cartoons, etc. Seriously, about 10% of my lectures each week are drawn straight from feministing.com archives - they are great materials for getting students fired up and interested in how beliefs about men and women impact their lives.
Sincerely,
Dave

Well said! Treat me like a human, and maybe I'll like you. What's so hard to understand about that?
What's more is that there is a cartoon called "Woman translator." Yeah... apparently when women ask questions they're always disguising their true money-hungry, image-obsessed, sexually-repressed ways.
Maybe I should pull out my "moron" decoder ring.
Even if you can jump back in the matrix for a minute and ignore the fact that it's sexist and offensive, it's STILL not funny. It's been done. Where was the alleged joke supposed to BE?
Arg. Not funny. Just not funny. Completely unfunny, in fact. It makes my brain hurt. Who would laugh at this? And who would love someone who would laugh at this? I just don't understand...
My problem with this is it is pure objectification.
It is clearly communicated that the woman's thoughts or desires are unimportant. Rather, she's an to be (remote) controlled by someone else. She's an object not a person.

Wow, this is bad.
But come on, why would I want to trouble my pretty little head with reading when I could be satisfying my man's every whim? It's not like he married me for my brains!
What I love most is that both pre- and post-remote girlfriend has improbably huge tatas. Because even if she is a righteous feminist, she should at least be stereotypically hot. Am I right or am I right?
oh barf
