  • I remember one comic of hers was pretty tone deaf and caused a bit of a stir:

    Not sure how to find it, but it was supposed to be a “imagine if women acted like this to men” as a way to point out problematic behaviors men have, but instead of picking things that never happen to men for the point to land she used things that actually already happen to men. This showed she was apparently unaware the reversal was true instead of ridiculous which, yikes.

    That’s the only thing I’m aware of though so not sure about “well documented”. Maybe there’s some social media posts that people didn’t like or something? That’s as much light as I can shed on the situation.

    ‘Man’ is often used in the same way as ‘mankind’

    Yes, which is why without the “a” it doesn’t work. “A small step for mankind, one giant leap for mankind” is nonsensical.

    He was saying he (a man) was literally taking a step with his leg, but it was a figuratively large step for the species because of where/how he was taking that step.
