The problem with the sexist first Doctor jokes is that while that’s true of the era those episodes came from, the show has been pushing extremely hard to create this idea that timelords are above gender roles. So you have this weird juxtaposition of the Moffat wanting to make jokes at the expense of the 60s and tearing down the gateway toward a female Doctor he’s helped to create. It was jarring and didn’t work.

One joke would have been fine. But then they kept hammering it home.
