This ‘South Park’ Episode Made A Fan Rethink His Relationship With Women

It took a gender-swapped ‘Terrance and Phillip’ replacement to make one fan confront his gender bias

Thanks to South Park, some men have come to realize that equality means queefs and farts coexisting.

When Trey Parker and Matt Stone wrote the South Park Season 13 episode “Eat, Pray, Queef,” they intended the April 1, 2009 show to be a parody of their most enraging April Fool’s Day prank from exactly 11 years earlier. Back in the Season Two premiere, “Terrance and Phillip in Not Without My Anus,” the South Park writers entirely ignored the cliffhanger that they established in the previous episode “Cartman’s Mom Is a Dirty Slut,” wherein they teased the identity of Eric Cartman’s father, instead choosing to make an entire episode out of their Canadian, fart-friendly show-within-a-show Terrance and Phillip

In “Eat, Pray, Queef,” Cartman and his friends anxiously await an equally important second-part episode of their favorite cartoon, only to find that Terrance and Phillip have been replaced by “The Queef Sisters,” who swap fart jokes for queef cracks.

That, somehow, is exactly how one South Park fan realized that his attitude toward women was immature and slightly sexist. In a post from the South Park subreddit, titled, “The Queef Sisters Exposed My Misogyny,” a married man learns to respect women, one queef at a time.

“After eight years of marriage, I finally convinced my wife to watch all of South Park with me from episode one,” user thechoochlyman began. “We got to the ‘Queef Sisters’ episode, and I decided to just skip it. I didnt remember it being that good from watching it previously, it had a lot of bad reviews, and to be honest I dont enjoy the T&P episodes much anyway.” 

Thankfully, thechoochlywoman set him straight: “That very night, my wife watched a TikTok that was giving an in-depth explanation of how good of an episode it is, pointing out the obvious sexism and overall message that women should be allowed to have fun too. I told my wife the next day that I skipped that episode on purpose, but that wed definitely go back for it. (And I promised to never skip more episodes!).” Thechoochlyman admitted that, despite his distaste for farts and queefs alike, “it was a much better episode than I remembered, and Id like to formally apologize to my wife, the Queef Sisters, Shelley, Sharon, and to the feminist community at large because I clearly havent overcome all my misogyny yet.”

Ultimately, “Eat, Pray, Queef” is about exactly what thechoochlyman experienced — allowing women the personhood to be as gross and as funny as they want, just as we automatically do for men and their endless fart jokes. Thankfully, thechoochlyman understood the message much quicker than the men of South Park, who went so far as to ban queefs in retaliation to women like the Queef Sisters giving the guys a taste of their own medicine.

However, there are certainly still holdouts who refuse to accept the egalitarian themes of “Eat, Pray, Queef.” As the top comment on thechoochlymans post reads, “It’s still gross. Baby’s come out of there…”
