In my opinion, which is as humble as it can be (but that might not
mean much), I fail to see Joss' post as sexist. From its first line it
is a parody, something that very clearly should not be taken
seriously. Not that I like it - I'd really very very much prefer if we
all took d-d-a as something serious, and not a proper place to post
jokes of any kind.
_Of course_ that Joss' post mentions sexist situations and points of
view. But I don't think there is a single comma in his message meant
to be taken seriously.
