What was she supposed to say? Sometimes you try a collaborative joke and the other person doesn’t want to. Why is his making the joke more important than her refusal? She didn’t ask for a ticket to lame-o-ville.
If you try a tired joke, and it doesn’t work, you don’t get to complain. He also DIDN’T complain, he completed the joke. So you’re what? complaining on his behalf? Why would you do that? Unnecessary.
If you read it where they both have equal footing, you might have found it funny. But since you don’t think she’s equal, you got offended and called names. ....Good call. Super interesting and helpful to everyone. Definitely makes you look awesome.
You realize you're literally attacking grim by doing the exact thing you're accusing him of? Complaining on behalf of someone else. And he never said she wasn't equal, he was calling out her shitty attitude. No need to start burning bras and waving pitchforks.
.
I'd wager his statement isn't about her "rejection" of the joke. Not a single person on the planet likely gives a damn if she likes the joke. O.o it was about her bitchy response. She easily could have left it at "wtf" if she didn't understand, or told him she wasn't interested in a MUCH milder manner. Instead she implied a guy never gets laid and instead engages in bestiality. All because she was offended.

Weird the way some people freak out on others when they're offended. Definitely makes them look awesome.
I....don’t burn expensive underwear. That’s - just...yikes to that comment.
Anyway, he and you indicate you see her “attitude” as “shitty” as opposed to a legitimate response. To me, the whole thing reads like a bit (short formulaic comedy skit). There’s no proof it’s even real as opposed to a joke post. It’s funnier than the original joke if you read it that way.
Regardless, the response grim reaper and you had was that she should just react in a positive or neutral way; there’s no acknowledgement that she gets to steer the conversation and say whatever she wants. But the whole thing is contingent on him doing exactly that. If it is real, maybe she’s just tired of f*ckbois and he got crossfire from the frustration. Either way, he seems unruffled or accepting of her getting to steer the conversation. To me, it seems like grim reaper is not giving this female the same leeway.
Look, fair. I see my perspective and yours - and stand down.
You made it about equality. Bra-burning is a reference to a movement dealing with equality. Didn't think that needed clarifying. I really have no interest in what you do with your own undergarments.
.
A legitimate response to what? Grim said she has a shitty attitude in response to... her having a shitty attitude. Grim at the very least never gave any indication how she SHOULD act. He simply gave his opinion on how she chose to act. I added onto this by saying she could have reacted differently. Which, in turn, would have altered the reactions we had to her response.
.
The guy in question was given the same assessment by me at the very least.
If he had responded to the girl saying "huh" by saying "listen here you ugly witch, it's a joke, and you damn well should have laughed. No wonder no one wants to sleep with you but your cousins, ignorant whore." I would have said he's an asshole. But he didn't say anything remotely like that. He said "updog." She's the only one who took it anywhere near that level.
.
Maybe she is tired of dealing with "fuckbois" but we have no evidence that this guy is anything but a guy making a fairly tame joke. So her taking her anger out on him because of other peoples' behavior is hardly fair. Either way we don't have that history so speculating on it seems a bit moot.

We're all entitled to our own perceptions I guess.
