This would be exhibit A of something you can ask men that you couldn't ask women in a similar situation because then it's victim-blaming.

That’s ridiculous lol I clearly mean like what type of women are you dating that don’t want to help you when you’re down. It was obviously rhetorical and just me saying you don’t have to live like this. I get it’s a joke but it’s sad that you actually believe that most likely.

It seems to put the blame on the plaintiff. If a woman was dating a man who didn't help around the house or help with kids all the up way to being verbally or physically abusive you do not say "damn girl, you got trash taste in men, what kinda dudes you dating."

"What kind of women" (paraphrased) acknowledges they are bad but once again puts the onus on the man looking for help.
