I get exactly what it is saying and so do my coworkers, all of whom are female. The state sends people who have never worked in dialysis to survey us on rules that are 10x more strict than any hospital, clinic, or doctor's office, put in place by people who have never set foot in a dialysis clinic.

He stumbles upon the show "Sister Wives", and figures he'd stop there for a few minutes to humor the wife.

After a few minutes pass, the man grows bored, so he decides to strike up some conversation. He says "Honey, you know this show would make a great model for us to pattern our life after".

Quickly annoyed, the wife retorted "Hmph, you can hardly handle the one wife that you already have.."

After thinking for a moment, the man responded with "You can never underestimate the effects that fresh ***** can have on a man".

...THAT'S when the fight started

I must be missing something...Why is the highlighted a punchline?

The fact that you have to point out that "even the women" get it proves my point.

I get it. It is probably more funny to some people than it is to others. It all depends on what kind of jobs you have had in the past.

When I was a young 'shavetail' second lieutenant (called 'shavetail' because in the cavalry days, they used to assign them to shave the horses tails), I was that theoretical person with the book in hand trying to tell everyone how to do their jobs. Fortunately, I had some good superior officers who set me straight and explained what my job actually was.

And I didn't see it as sexist. You could just as easily have put a young guy in the picture with a book and the meaning would have been to same.
