This joke seems to imply that mostly women are feminists. As a man who is also a staunch feminist, the joke really didn't land for me.
Isn't that implication correct though? No ragebait here, but aren't feminists mostly women?
Can't be bothered to dig up data, but it seems like it's a reasonable assumption to make.
According to this article, about 40% of men and 60% of women identify as feminist. That means only about 60% of feminists are women, at least in the States.
