That's exactly right. My only point was that Frownland and co are trying to white wash any homophobic or toxic masculinity undertones of the joke since they see those as inherent no nos. It's more honest to just embrace what it is and say it's not meant maliciously. That's why I said I'm not even offended at it but if you wanna argue on technicalities, it does fundamentally perpetuate the same kind of homophobic and masculine tropes that my causal use of the f word does. And I'm fine with that. Long live the patriarchy.
