"Sexism, feminism and normal life?" #jimmycarr #crowdwork #hecklers #standupcomedy

"That's not what I asked," an audience member tells Jimmy Carr. His washing-up routine has earned him a follow-up rather than settled the question.

The exchange begins with a shout from the crowd asking for the difference between sexism, feminism and normal life. Carr responds with a series of definitions built around who does the dishes, but the woman interrupts to bring him back to feminism specifically.

That sends the clip from a joke into a statement of his views. Carr praises feminism up to its second wave, then criticises its turn towards intersectionality. He finishes by arguing for equality alongside recognition of differences between men and women, receiving applause.

The Short reached about 310,000 views in eight hours, already more than six times the audience a typical Carr Short gets across its whole first day. The comments also passed his usual first-day total several times over.

Viewers are picking over the correction: some discuss whether his first response answered the actual question, while another wonders whether the opening question was meant to set up a joke. The distinction matters in this particular exchange: Carr begins with a comic definition and ends by giving an opinion.
