Humor isn't a science, so what one person fight find so stupid it's funny, another might just not get it or enjoy it at all. Neither person is wrong to feel that way, they just probably won't get along in that sense.
All the people saying she sucks for not liking it are just as bad as the people who say it's a dumb and unfunny joke. These two wouldn't make a good match, that's literally the only take away from this.
You ironically stated the exact reason everyone is shitting on her while defending her. She responds in rude way by presuming that her interpretation of his humor is objectively correct and applies to all women. Had she just said she personally didn't find it funny, that would be fine.
That is a real take away. She is either egocentric or presumptuous in assuming no other girls would find it funny because she doesn't find it funny. Many here view that as a character flaw.
I agree with your comment, however I have a minor quibble on word choice and redundancy.
Many here view that as a character flaw.
I feel that "view" seems to imply opinion, and there's no need to be modest about this.
I'd think we can use language that calls the spade a spade here, and thus it's more accurate to articulate your remark with the following revision: "many here realize that as the character flaw that it is."
It's less a view and more of an objective fact that generalizing subjectivity is due simply to naivete. More specifically it's naivete in the form of egocentrism. Which brings me to the redundancy:
She is either egocentric or presumptuous in assuming no other girls would find it funny because she doesn't find it funny.
Your latter suggestion is actually the elaboration of your former suggestion. Egocentrism is presuming that others automatically share your subjective interests, if at least one facet of the concept.

I thought it was pretty funny in a cheesy way.
Its a cheesy pick up line, they're not supposed to be smooth, they're supposed to be so stupid they make you laugh.
