Sexism, homophobia, transphobia all very present and in no way addressed. It was very much a child of the times. Crazy how far we've come in such a short time.
You can write jokes about those topics without being those things you know? Sometimes the transphobic writing points out the absurdity of holding such a position.
Exactly. Most good comedy uses that at least occasionally. Look at Always Sunny!
For them to not age well because of sexism/etc, it would have to not be comedically poking those topics.
Oh my god... Shut all the way up.
