Neil Cavuto Responds to Sexism Claims: “Calm Down, Toots”

6:01 pm, December 22nd | by Amy Tennery

A couple days ago Fox News’ Neil Cavuto shared with us a list of Christmas Shopping Tips For Men. It contained the kind of axioms your half-drunk, wildly out of touch uncle might offer over the turkey dinner.

In it, Cavuto called women “snide,” yucked it up over how much gosh-darn money we ladyfolk spend and, well, you get the idea.

Today, Cavuto penned a follow up to his original opus, lamenting how he’d been treated after spewing women-jokes that haven’t been en vogue since “The Honeymooners:”

I’m getting a lot of criticism from women about my shopping tips for men. Sexist. Crude. Dopy. One woman even wrote, misogynistic.

Unfair. Untrue. But this holiday season, I’m a giver, I’m not a hater.

So if I’ve offended some ladies, first off, calm down, Toots.

“One woman even wrote, misogynistic.” Well, shut the front door! Cavuto? You’re really listening to us? This is great! And I see you’ve written a list of “Shopping Tips For Women!” Let’s take a lo–… oh. No.

Tip 4– Don’t worry about getting too big a size. Most men will eventually fit into it anyway. And we, unlike you, aren’t the least bit offended by 2X, 3X.

You were so close. Toots, over and out.

I read his article and -”Tip 7– No tools. Many of us may be handy, but don’t confuse that with us wanting to do chores for you around the house. And nothing screams chore, like a sprocket set (whatever that is).”

This idiot is a promoter of stereotypes and 1950′s ideals, but he concedes that a modern man such as himself doesn’t know his way around a sprocket set…

Also, we’re all selfish, lazy d-bags that have NO desire to help you around the house. None.

I am. Enraged. And yet. He’s an idiot. He’s so clearly a massive idiot that I shouldn’t be angry. I pity his family.

Neal don’t take no lip off no skirt. He’s the king of his castle, and Mrs.C does what she’s told.

This is adorable–people getting so worked up over an obviously facetious segment that not even the men watching take seriously.

“Mrs. C” being Neal’s right hand. And she doesn’t stop shaking when she’s told.

You get blasted when you tell the truth about women. There is so much damn PC in regards to women. Pretty soon we’ll be talking about should a broad take of her own panties are do we have to do it for her. What is the better way to go to make her not look like a slut.

I saw the original segment and it was all tongue in cheek fun. To get your bloomers in a twist about it is ridiculous.

Do you really think that he’s REALLY advising men to get their women, ‘processed meat products’? Really? REALLY?

I’m a woman and I laughed through the entire thing. And getting pissed off about it is well, frankly, stupid.
get real

It was tongue-in -cheek. Obviously, this author has an agenda……say “anti-conservative” !
