      We’re making fun of conservatives being hypocrites and idiots. Like, how it’s not racist to make fun of MAGA immigrants voting for Trump and then being deported.

        Making fun of them based on the appearance of their wives/the women in this picture

        Look, I dont like them. I am not defending them. But reducing them to their looks just because theyre pieces of shit and implying they’re turning men gay. I think it’s shitty, because it doesnt hurt only them.

        Do make fun of them. Make fun of their garbage opinions, make fun of their terrible choices (like those awful pearl necklaces lol)

          So is a woman insulting a man by saying he’s ugly also sexist? I’m struggling to see how it’s misogyny, honestly. Like I’m not trying to fight or anything, I just don’t get how insulting physical appearance can be misogynistic when men can be ugly too. It doesn’t seem to be attacking them because they’re women, but because their appearance seems to reflect their souls. Ugly. What am I missing?

            Fracture has already made some very good points.

            But yes, it can be sexist. If the woman’s insults specifically target his worth as a man.

            The meme is attacking their appearance, and only their appearance, because they are women. I dont really believe in this “looks reflect the soul” stuff. Some people are the absolute sweetest, yet dont meet societal beauty standards. Some people are shit, yet are considered attractive.

            I dont know if you’ve read some comments in this thread, but there’s multiple calling them men. Since they aren’t beautiful, they have their womanhood stripped away from them.

            They aren’t beautiful, so they aren’t women. Because to be a woman is to be beautiful.

            I dont know how much more obvious beauty being tied to a woman’s worth as a woman can get.

              But they’re ugly because of specific choices they made to wear what ends up looking like a fascist clown costume. They chose this look. They’re not being made fun of for things outside their control.

              The vitriol and anger that led to those aesthetic choices also led to unhappy marriages. That’s the joke as I saw it.

                Most people in this comment section are mocking their physical attributes, not their clothes or hair or anything they might have control over.

                This meme is directly implying that their husbands would rather sleep with other men, rather than with their wives, because they find them so unattractive.

                If thats not your interpretation, then thats not your interpretation, but a lot of other people here read it differently.

                I do agree that they make awful fashion choices though
