But the fact is a lot of time when people are using it in the non-comedy/hilarious sense it *is* directed at women. You rarely get people calling men 'hysterical' if it's not referring to humor. However still when you get women getting upset or something commenters or people will still pull out the "she's hysterical" line.

I agree it's not hte same level of "whore" or "bitch" but it still is often used in gendered situations in a negative light.

I just asked my bf who has no idea about the origins and he said he'd expect it to refer to irrational women more than men, so I guess I was being overly optimistic...
I still feel like trying to shame people for using it in the comedy sense isn't worth it though.
