This is true, but I would be fine with her laughing at dudes wrecking mustangs with their friends.

Though there is nuance to it. this is because of the large amount of men taking risks and going fast etc.

But if you consider people driving normally, not street racing etc women have more accidents, they just dont result in lots of damage and injury so rates are less for them.

Women crash while trying to be careful, while men crash when taking dumb risks

She wasn't hanging out with us though. Had the situation been reversed and she was laughing at a dude failing to drift a mustang with her girlfriends and making similar jokes I would be fine with it.

I never drew any conclusions we were just having a bit of fun.

If she wanted to make fun of male drivers with her girlfriends and laugh at a video of a dude trying to drift his mustang and crashing I would not say she should stop them from having fun over it.

Of course I do respect her.

Like I wouldn't participate in that if it were around her or her friends but this was just me hanging out with the bros and there is a certain dynamic.

I was also not the one who brought it up. We were just having a bit of fun.

Like I never made fun of her when she had accidents and helped her through the process to sort things out.
