Don't even pretend this is about a "respectful quality." That's a crock and the very last thing you care about here. You’re the one who said, “Of course the caricature of the Viking cat-lady is obese.” Why is it “of course” — and how is that the least bit respectful?
It's a fun caricature. If that's not your thing, great - but it doesn't require snarky comments and absurd rationalizations for them after you’ve been called out. You making up stories now to try to cover up your misogyny isn't going to fly. Nobody reading these comments will believe you for a second. Give it a rest.
