Okay...da film. Listen up.
Two guys headin' to some fuggin' Fellini with Dante world o' bends.
Is it hell? Dunno...seems plenty nice ta me.
These two fellas just be trying to bone and get their groove on.
Ya know what I'm sayin'.

Turns out though that da man we be callin' HERO,
ain't nothin' but a low-down lady beatin' mutha' fuggah.
Da man we usually be laffin' at á là Walter Brennan be da real man.
He be lookin fo' da love like Chef, not Ike.
Ya know what I'm sayin'.

Man who be treatin' da ladies right get himself some love and some bustin'.

'Gain not sure what da problem is.
Some dancing women.
Some chicks waxin' on each other messin' with da tongues.
A chick munching anuther.
Why sex be sexism?
Merely a view within the minds of two lost souls.
Ya know what I'm sayin'.

Ya all need to open up...
Some pages of dat dead bald French guy's book The History of Sexuality.
No pictures. Won't be gettin' ya off.
But damn if it don't help all ya repressed folks understand da ways of sexuality.
Ya know what I'm saying.

If sexism be defined as the objectification or oppression of a gender by another gender,
then don't see how these 2 films fit.
If anyone bein' objects it's da crackers.
They ill defined, fugged up creatures.
Sure...the waitress, egg and elevator button be re/op-pressed
But shit, if ya axe me, everyone be messed up.

Ya know what I'm sayin'?
