      In this our year of the Lord 2018 we're still having conversations about whether women are funny or not? 🤦🏻‍♀️https://www.thecut.com/2018/05/david-letterman-netflix-tina-fey-interview.html …

      If your comedy show doesn't have a significant percentage of marginalized voices, not only people of colour and women and women of colour but queer folks, disabled folks etc, then you are missing out on incredibly rich, complex perspectives that would only make it better.

          Too many shows bring on token hires: just one woman or one person of colour on a team of otherwise white dudes and feel satisfied like they've fulfilled their "diversity quota" or whatever. And TBH those tend to be the most boring and unimaginative shows.

          To still hold the painfully false stance that women just aren't really that funny is biological determinism, the belief that men and women are born with different intellectual capacities, in this case humour, well, then, you are most definitely a moron.

          you're literally saying "how can i relate to someone who doesn't look like me". Who even cares about skin colour or gender. Martin Luther King would be disappointed.

          If your comedy prioritises identity politics over humour then it's not going to be a very good comedy.

          newsflash: you're either funny or you're not. Maybe the best writers they found weren't women or minorities at the time.pic.twitter.com/fUZdbO7f70

          As long as every joke isn’t centered around their disability (Kathy Buckley), their vagina (Amy Schumer), skin color (Leslie Jones), or weight (Melissa McCarthy), then you’re right. But so many female comedians are one trick ponies. Thing about men doing that, they fade fast.

          Within a group of able bodied white men there are many rich, complex perspectives. You make it sound like the only way to get different perspectives is to have different races, genders, & orientations. There’s more diversity within groups then there is between groups.

          Im not saying only to hire men. I just think you should always hire the most qualified people, without giving attention to their physical characteristics.
