In this episode of How I Met Your Mother Barney talks to the gang about how he has been having trouble picking up women with his crazy stories and somehow things just turn sour suddenly. Turns out a girl comes out as barney steps away for a minute to expose him for the man he really is and destroys his chances with them. Barney suspects that it is a woman that he has slept with and makes a fantasy football bracket of the women he has slept with and done the worst. This itself is very objectifying and they often have a laugh about how Barney has done women so badly and often treat the women as players that are tradable. The premise of the episode objectifies women as objects who are also dumb for believing his outlandish lies.
