It’s an old Polish form of comedy called “Halyna, ja nie moge, chłop sie za babe przebrał!”

Because it’s absurd. Also an easy way to show a female character is an ugly cunt without calling an actual woman ugly.
In the last it’s a woman that just wants to make it as a taxi driver so a field almost exclusively of men. It’s a story.

It was used as others said “haha ‘le funny man dressed as a woman”. I never thought it was that funny, it was annoying at best because the man was usually a stereotypical woman.

Maybe it’s just a thing people want to do, if they’re adults they should be able to do want they want without judgment.

It’s not a Polish-specific type of humour, in Czechia we have a lot of examples of that, too, as do other cultures.

Because chłop co się za babę przebrał is the peak of Polish humor
Because of the percentage of femboys in Poland. Around 50% males between 19 and 35 years old are femboys. In Wrocław and Poznań it’s 90%.

my Polish father saw a pantomime for the first time in the UK during WWII and was totally bemused that the principal boy was a girl and the ugly sisters were two men

It isn’t really Poland specific. 20th century was when gender reafirming surgery was first inveted and legalised. Many western cultures have been making jokes about it to cope with this radical shift in understanding of human body and mind

Can anyone tell me what movie is the 4th picture? It is so familiar to me. I think I’ve seen it when I was a child (early 90s).

First actor was killed in Soviet camp in 1943 after 2 years of imprisonment because Russian orcs claimed he was a spy. Until 1990 it was widely unknown.
