Futurama has aged quite well, until you get to the episode where bender changes gender to win in the women’s robot Olympics.

It’s such a bizarre experience because you almost can’t view it through the lense of that era given how the topic has exploded, and even trying it’s still really hard to tell if it’s genuinely making fun of women, or making fun of the perception of women being weak.

At least when South Park did it with the special Olympics episode Cartman gets stomped by the actual athletes.
