Ladies, I apologize. For all those men who say, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?", here's an update for you. Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage. Why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire pig just to get a little sausage!

This quip riffs on a long-standing sexist proverb—“Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?”—used to argue against marriage by implying women’s value is primarily sexual access. The “update” flips the metaphor to mock men, suggesting women increasingly see marriage as a bad bargain: too much cost and commitment for too little benefit (“a little sausage”). As a piece of barbed humor, it critiques transactional attitudes toward relationships and exposes how crude economic metaphors can demean both sexes. However, its reliance on animal/food sexual innuendo also perpetuates reductive framing even as it attempts a reversal.
