Women aren’t funny, that’s the parrot stereotype for women trying to be funny. The exact origin and reason for this belief is unknown and we’re sure there are researchers stuck under a desk somewhere working on it, but we’re willing to toss our hats in the ring and say that’s just it another part of the misogynist circle is of things women supposedly can’t do because men simply said they could. Iliza Shlesinger is one of many comedians to prove this stereotype incredibly wrong.
Over the years, the above stereotype has created an atmosphere of blatant discrimination against emerging female comics, making it a male-dominated profession. Because of this reality, a casual look would suggest that women are indeed not funny.
But even gender discrimination aside, a professional comedian has some job demands that are horribly inconsistent with traditional female gender roles, from touring to late-night club gigs. This was a discouragement to aspiring female comics who want it all. However, some women have chosen to brave the odds and serve as inspiration for other emerging comics. One of these women is Iliza Shlesinger.
