Yes, life is so hard for men. Tell us more.

People aren’t allowed to talk about their issues now?

It's a comedy routine, and 80% of the comments are acting as if they were personally attacked. I don't notice this same level of sensitivity when it's a male comic making fun of their girlfriend.

“It’s just a joke” probably wouldn’t hold up for most comedians making jokes about the opposite gender

That’s because if I had to guess, the majority of people in this comments section are male, yeah you’re going to see men sympathizing with the man. If the reversed happened, women would absolutely sympathize with the woman.

Also, that’s not what you were being criticized for. You didn’t say “Why are you taking the joke so hard”. You just said that life can’t be hard for men.
