People will scoff at "no" and he isn't sexist so he obviously can't say "yes."

The question was asked in a "do you beat your wife" kind of way. It wasn't a legitimate question, in that the question-asker did not really expect an answer, or care what the answer was.

Bernie laughingly dismisses sexism. Which will then be shown by Rachel, all pop-eyed and faux-indignant.
