“Two women walk into a bar and talk about the Bechdel test…” (bar joke)

“A guy walks into a bar…” is a typical form of what has been called the “bar joke.” A joke about the Bechdel test is:
 
“Two women walk into a bar, and talk about the Bechdel test.”
 
The Bechdel test asks if a work of fiction (such as a movie or a novel) that features at least two women talking to each other has them discuss something other than a man. The two women walk into a bar and discuss the Bechdel test, so they pass the test.
 
“Two women walk into a bar and discuss the Bechdel Test” was cited on Twitter on February 26, 2013.
 
   
Wikipedia: Bechdel test
The Bechdel test (/ˈbɛkdəl/ bek-dəl) asks whether a work of fiction features at least two women who talk to each other about something other than a man. The requirement that the two women must be named is sometimes added.
 
Only about half of all films meet these requirements, according to user-edited databases and the media industry press. The test is used as an indicator for the active presence of women in films and other fiction, and to call attention to gender inequality in fiction due to sexism.
 
Also known as the Bechdel-Wallace test, the test is named after the American cartoonist Alison Bechdel, in whose comic strip Dykes to Watch Out For it first appeared in 1985. Bechdel credited the idea to a friend, Liz Wallace, and to the writings of Virginia Woolf. After the test became more widely discussed in the 2000s, a number of variants and tests inspired by it have been introduced.

Two women walk into a bar and talk about the Bechdel test.
It’s funny because: The Bechdel test is a measure of gender equality in the media. A piece of media is considered to pass the test if it includes at least two women who talk to each other about something besides men. This joke passes the test.
It’s on this list because:  The media is self-referential.
