I like all the comments saying she's sexist lol

You guys know she isn't saying ALL women are bad comedians right? 😂

Just the comedians THEY'VE seen...😏

@lehcar Don't know why some people are mad at you. lol.

@lehcar I like looking at the information that's currently being argued instead of forming words out of thin air 😌
@Fangirlsarah1996 Because [b]she[/b] is sexist, it's her viewpoint being discussed.
Fangirlsarah1996 · 26-30, F
@bijouxbroussard We're discussing the facts.

Fact: Of the women comedians she's seen (Not ones she hasn't) she hasn't found funny.
@Fangirlsarah1996 Because [b]she[/b] is sexist. Understood.

@bijouxbroussard You're the only person calling her sexist...she hasn't said all women are bad comedians...she could've seen 6 comedians, 3 men 3 women...and the 3 women could've just been terrible comedians.

It doesn't make her sexist.

How am I sexist though
@Fangirlsarah1996 Yet she felt the need to make the point, based upon gender. That's sexist, "genderist ", if you like.

It would be sexist if I said all female comedians aren't funny
Fangirlsarah1996 · 26-30, F
@bijouxbroussard Because it makes it easier to classify honestly.

If I made a post like this I probably word it the same way instead of making a long-winded post listing all of the comedians who I don't like...who would probably just happen to be female.

Then someone will come along in the comments asking why there's just women in this list and then I'd respond with "Because I don't really find the female comedians I've seen funny"

And in an effort to try catering to your "needs" we'll be in the exact same place.

Over-complicating matters like that gets nobody anywhere in the end...her opinion would remain the same and someone would complain about it regardless.

@lehcar you said "I've never found a female comedian to be funny" how many have you seen then? My annoyance with this whole thing is I have been a huge fan of funny women since Martha Raye..google her...and I know how hard it has always been for funny women to make it in the business because ...like most things it's all about the boys. Go on Netflix to the stand-up section and MAYBE there will be one woman comedian..so, not only are you a woman...but Lesbian and you so far have not come across one funny woman...I find that amazing and think there must be more to it
@Fangirlsarah1996 It's not at all complicated. It's misogyny, because people expect women to [b]be[/b] a certain way and don't appreciate their irreverence or humor. And lesbians are just as susceptible as [b]anyone else[/b]. 🤷🏽‍♀️

@bijouxbroussard Since when was anyone sexist?

I explained it plain as day.

I'll explain it again.

I see three male comedians, the best of the best, for examples sake.

Then I see three female comedians...they use the same jokes and otherwise don't play the crowd very well, but it's not exactly their fault as they've only been doing it for around a year each.

Would it be sexist to say that I didn't find the women funny?

@Fernie I never said I've seen them all
Fangirlsarah1996 · 26-30, F
@lehcar This is the root of the discussion that nobody seems to be understanding, for whatever reason.
lehcar · 22-25, F
@Fangirlsarah1996 This is craaazy. These people have to bring up misogyny a certain number of times per day or else they go even more insane
Fangirlsarah1996 · 26-30, F
@lehcar I'm fighting the urge to block her honestly 🤦

Though blocking just because I don't like someone is against my morals.
