平特五不中

Though today鈥檚 female comics are making breakthroughs, stand-up is still very much a men鈥檚 game. In a recent Le Devoir article, Louise Richer (EMBA鈥�16), Director General of Quebec鈥檚 脡cole nationale de l鈥檋umour, points out that humour is seen by many women as an attractive feature in a man, but that the reverse is not often true.

She also mentions how female comics often hear the old clich茅 鈥淵ou鈥檙e good for a girl,鈥� which is a sign that there is still work to be done.

Many women point to Amy Schumer as a whirlwind of change for the industry, though. Her fearless approach, her feminism, and her authenticity are empowering women comics in new and exciting ways.
