"Duck Dynasty" patriarch Phil Robertson does not shy away from dishing out one controversial comment after another. He already got removed from the show after he made some derogatory statements against the LGBT community, and now he has made some feminists upset during a recent episode of the show.

According to Western Journalism, the husbands and wives of the Robertson family had a friendly frog-hunting competition in the episode. Phil wasn't pleased with the women's frog-hunting skills, prompting him to say, "These are subdivision girls. They aren't country girls. Seems to be the way America is going these days."

People weren't sure what Phil meant by "subdivision girls," but his statement delivery proved that it was anything but a compliment.

"He wasn't saying they were outstanding businesswomen, supportive mothers or adoring wives. He decided their value as human beings was determined solely by their ability to catch frogs at night," Mckenna Bailey wrote on She Knows. "Of course, he didn't make his condescending comment in front of the women. He waited until he was in the safety of his solo interview, because that's the best way to make completely absurd comments."

Bailey slammed the show's producers for not monitoring Phil's comments better, because they crossed the fine line between funny and sexist.

"I know that he's from an older generation and probably isn't interested in expanding his mind to consider the feelings of people other than fellow straight men, but it seems like A&E could take some accountability here and edit out these offensive comments," she said.

Of course, there were others who thought that Bailey was simply "making a HUGE issue out of nothing," and that there was nothing wrong with Phil's comments.

"Guess what? People who reside and grow up in rural areas are different from those who reside and grow up in metropolitan areas. Men or women... They are different. How you read 'offense' into that is beyond me," another stated.
