(but they also do sensitive and thoughtful and beautiful material) : Jane Cornes and Margie Hanley (and yes, I think they have a CD out) ... Cheers! R-J |

11 Aug 05 - 08:38 PM (#1540696) Subject: RE: Feminist Comedy Music From: GUEST,Female comedy writer Comedy rules! more women should get into it. Its still a bit of a boys club im afraid. Men often say that they like funny women but what they often mean is...'as long as they're not funnier than me'. A bit like David Brent from The Office : 'I'd like a woman who is as intelligent as me...or maybe a bit less intelligent'. |

11 Aug 05 - 08:46 PM (#1540708) Subject: RE: Feminist Comedy Music From: GUEST,Female comedy writer I think i know what you're getting at, you mean the man hating Jo Brand variety of comedy. I think that can be too destructive. I am a woman and I write comedy but I wouldn't describe it as feminist. Its mainly satire, taking the piss. |

12 Aug 05 - 05:42 PM (#1541312) Subject: RE: Feminist Comedy Music From: PoppaGator Good one, Greg... And don't even suggest that a feminist might not be ABLE to change a light bulb without a man's help! |

12 Aug 05 - 08:24 PM (#1541406) Subject: RE: Feminist Comedy Music From: GUEST,Grateful Fred If you are of the Judeo-Christian persuasion, or are just open-minded about religion, check out the Book of Judith in the Bible. (The Apocrypha if your Bible is based on the KJV.) Judith is just one of the most bodacious kick-ass heroes in history. And she's a woman in what is usually regarded as a "male dominated religion." I think maybe the awareness of Judith was suppressed by a lot of church bureaucrats for a long time. But check it out, you won't be sorry. |
