It was meant as a tangential jab, yes. Laugh a little.

To answer seriously, I don't know that I've actually read the actual Grimm tales as written. Can't remember, there's about a billion of them after all. But I know the Mickey Mouse versions, and to call them sexist and misogynistic is just silly and hypersensitive. I know all kinds of women who haven't been psychologically damaged by the supposed bigotry of these stories. Some even enjoy them (the horror!).

But as you say, we're off topic.
