- Cartoonist Betty Swords spoke about her feminist awakening in the 60s: Suddenly, Swords said, she realized why there were so few women cartoonists…Women cartoonists are discriminated against because of their ideas. ‘Women don’t make jokes,’ she said, ‘because they are the joke.’ What’s funny to a woman doesn’t appeal to male editors, who tend to want women in the jokes to be the butt of the humor.” (via Ladies Making Comics)

In a perfect world, that would make those men MORE sympathetic to women when they talk about objectification of women in media.

Susana Polo
Whenever we bring up objectification of women in modern action movies, people always bring up the one shot of Chris Hemsworth shirtless.
