Not to belie your point, but I see a lot of problematic issue behind using 'It's Pat: The Movie' to illustrate anything relating to "comedy".

I have trouble telling if some people are male or female. That can be embarrassing.
that is a sufficiently common meme that comedians make light of it, in a general sense-
I remember a long time ago when lots of men wore their hair down their backs, I had to get around some slowpoking person in the supermarket aisle, and I could only see their back and they were compactly built and their hair went down to the buttocks, and I was being polite by saying "excuse me, ma'am" and the person angrily whipped around and turned out to be a very offended & short-tempered man who yelled at me, "WHAT THE @#$% YOU MEAN 'MA'AM'?!"
When I taught at one collete, I had a student who I would have sworn was male dressing as a female. There was nothing about her that made me think female.

Life is about nothing, if it's not about something.
Or vice versa?

Do you have trouble in general telling some males from females. I'm hopeless. My ex-partner used to range from extremely amused to extremely annoyed when I screwed up, depending on what mood she was in at the time that I screwed up!

Never had a problem before, that I know of.
About a year later, one of the students in the class mentioned her to me. It turned out that he really had no idea either.

You've got some nerve!
