A Day in the Life of a Real Live Female Comedian! [Video]

by Jamie Frevele | 11:29 am, September 18th, 2011


You ever hear stupid men say that female comedians aren’t funny? It’s because they aren’t following the strict regimen that is followed by Successful Female Comedian Amy Schumer, who has been kind enough to share all of her secrets with us! Skip lunch! Tampons! Shoulder pads! All those things, ladies, amirite? Don’t get me started!

    Sorry, was I supposed to laugh? I didn’t even crack a smile. :(

    I hate to say it, but it is really, really true. I’ve never seen an entertaining female comedian, I don’t know what it is, it just…isn’t done. Ever.

    And no, this isn’t a “stupid man” saying female comedians aren’t funny. Just a girl recognizing the truth. :(

    Comedy is subjective.  Not every female comedian will make me laugh, and certainly not every male comedian will make me laugh.  To me, when people say female comedians aren’t funny, it just doesn’t make sense.  It sounds like every prejudicial statement I’ve ever heard.  Though, of course, if a female comedian has never made you laugh, there’s nothing wrong with that, but does that have to mean none of them ever will?

    That is what I think the video is about, the stereotypical view of what a woman’s comedy routine is in the eyes of society.  I thought it was cute, but Maria Bamford always cracks me up and she’s what made this video funny to me.   Female comedian doesn’t mean one thing, and Maria is great evidence of that.

    Your truth. Your perspective is not the world’s, don’t forget it.

    Seriously?  People are still saying stuff like this non-ironically?  In today’s world this is exactly  like saying, “I’ve never heard a talented female vocalist”.  Given the wide range of talent and the breadth of styles, the only legitimate explanation is that you just don’t watch very much comedy.  In which case, why make the comment?

    Well, I’d say vocal talent is slightly less subjective than comedic talent, but yeah, this is pretty ridiculous.

    I like when she’s talking into a chocolate bar.
