Is this guy just a sexist mysoginist or does he have a point about pretty girls?

It's like a lot of comedy. It's funny because there is a grain of truth to it, but it's exagerrated to a ridiculous extreme in order to be funny.
Pretty much the epitome of what it means to be able to laugh at yourself.
Consider for example of all the pretty girls that get used up and spit out by the world, or wind up becoming really warped and jaded at an early age because of it. A grain of truth and making fun of one stereotype (stereotypes exist because they are true) does not form the basis of an entire opinion or an actual political statement.

The look on the face of the woman next to the man he was screaming at near the end was prooof enough of how right he was.
Priceless.
Priceless.

Just go to 4:56 and look at the faces of the women. Holy shit...
Offensive but true. I have more respect for a person who tells it like it is, rather than sugarcoating things.

He's a comedian. For a comedian, there's only two ways to become well-known and successful; be really talented and have a killer bit and/or be offensive. He does have a point, though, and you know it. That is how comedians make an impact; they talk about issues that their audience can relate to.
Bout half and half. Of course he's blowing things way out of proportion.
Yes, women will dominate men. I've seen it in my family. But I think women like it better when men can STILL 'handle their business' after getting into a committed relationship.
These kinds of stereotypes exist because there are a lot of examples in the real world. Doesn't mean things HAVE to be that way.
BTW: Did you see how pissed that woman sitting next to that guy was? Holy crap, I hope that wasn't that man's wife. Poor bastard.
BUT NOT FOR LONG!
Basically, the answer is yes. Just think about it. What if you were a not-so-pretty girl, or an ugly girl, and had a few friends who were very pretty?
1. When you go to a social event, all the guys are staring at your pretty friends and ignoring you.
2. When your pretty friends join you and your boyfriend for dinner (or whatever) he's looking at them (and possibly the pretty waitress) a lot more than you.
3. (As Mr. Burns said) Virtually all men are willing to wait on the pretty girls hand and foot, or are at least extra nice to them, while they may hesitate to give you the time of day.
Add to these the fact that women tend to compete socially (whereas men compete physically and economically) and you can see why women who are pretty (and therefore have a huge and often undeserved advantage) would be the object of jealousy and spite.

I knew a girl who was like this. She had a lot of very pretty friends.Nickolai77 said:
