Everything in life changes and adapts in order to survive. Women have never been accepted in comedy so they have evolved as comedians. Women are now more aggressive and less worried about looking silly, or being judged; because of these things they have strived in what was once a completely male occupation. There is plenty of evidence to show that females have been making major progress in equality within this career. Although the stereotypes of women and their roles in life have made this a struggle, and are obviously still an issue, I believe women have crafted their own humor over the years in a way that has flourished in today’s society. The old saying’s that women can not be funny just aren’t true anymore, and they have the jokes to prove it.
