It's not a very humorous joke.
It's cutting off half of the population.
Inforcing stupid gender stereotypes and gender roles.
I'll laugh at it once it starts being funny.
As in never.

No actually
It's a marketing decision based on most men's opinion that drinking Diet Soda is a feminine thing. It should be pretty obvious that their target audience wasn't women at all. After all they can't appeal to everyone.
Also it's kinda like those comedy movies that are completely sexist but no one calls them sexist because they are funny.

All I want is a frosty and some French fries....

IS THAT SO MUCH TO ASK?! I'M SITTING HERE ON THE COUCH HALF-DEAD AND I CAN'T EVEN HAVE TWO LITTLE THINGS!

After everything I've done for you, parents!?

The couch is the only one who loves me...

Honestly, men are still going to think it's a feminine thing because they're still being forcefed the idiotic views by the marketing systems. Light beer ads? All men in them havin' a ball. In real life? "light beer is gay/for ladies/something to that effect".
The comedy movies that are completely sexist but no one calls them sexist because they're funny... Still sexist, you just said so yourself.

They're never going to accept.

It's so unfair.

Why would they.

You're not helping my stressed-out-ed-ness.

*headdesk* Missed the pound... .-.
I am quitting Chicken Smoothie.
I will only be on for the pets and roleplays with close friends.


I can be found off-site for roleplaying. If you need to contact me, do so here, and I may grant you my information.

Can you post a link? I may or may not be interested. I'm not much of a wolf person, but you never know.
Yeah, couches, pillows, and other inanimate objects are very understanding. And I want Starbucks and now I want fries. I just ate dinner.
I'm a little pessimistic and sarcastic. I don't like talking. Why do you try to make me talk? I act social pretty decently.
