I thought it was funny. You have any suggestions? Maybe go with Me: trying to impress her "So what you're saying is you need a strong man to provide for you?"
Me: "That's interesting. Personally, I try to avoid politics so I don't get caught up being a pawn for some oligarchs plan to divide my country in order to further enhance their wealth and power."
Good effort, but the joke doesn't land. It's a little too on the nose. The punch line should be more surprising rather than rude.

Ya that's a little better. Although strong man meaning communism or dictatorship doesn't connect with the vegan bit.
Maybe something like, trying to impress her, "I love reading fiction too"
Not so punchy but getting closer.

Lol, exactly.
