These are the three steps of a woman changing a flat; 1. Stare blankly at spare tyre for ten minutes. 2. Check glove box for half eaten packet of Doritos. 3. Call Dad, amirite?
What makes the joke amusing is that it's surprisingly accurate for a surprising amount of women. That doesn't make them inferior, but it's a funny realization. Equally a similar joke about men that's equally amusing and insulting should be equally welcomed by the men who enjoyed this post. Sexism isn't funny, humor is.
I get that it's sexist but it's still pretty funny. I know how to change a tire now but this behavior was spot on for me when i didn't a few years ago, which is pretty hilarious.
Tyre?
...British English.
Why does it have to be a woman?
Because it's a stereotypical joke

Can't take a joke can we?
I know a lot of girls that can change tires, not including myself though.
Nailed it

I'd downvote this but that's probably what i'd do
Haha, true for me. I could probably do it if someone talked me through it though.
