Can you explain why that's funny?

Not the person that made the joke, but…

Calling her a dishwasher is based on attitudes where women are the homeworkers. I see the joke as taking the piss out of people with that attitude, not the woman herself. We all know that she is a human being with thoughts and feelings like the rest of us and no one ever thought otherwise.

Tell me there's a switcheroo community/magazine

I'm not sure, but feel free to link to my previous comment whever you next see an oppertunity for a lemmy switcheroo. It's not really my cup of tea, but it's good to start something.
