Recently, I've well and truly fallen in love with Ani Difranco :D
She's amazing. I just love her lyrics.
And, over here, in comedy corner... (to make this an even more pointless post yay)
The thing is, a lot of the comedy I love features penis-owners. But, ya gotta love classics such as Blackadder, Only Fools and Horses, and films such as Life Of Brian and The Holy Grail. My favourite comedian is Bill Bailey. I like to watch the Best of the Comedy Store on paramount, but they hardly ever feature female comedians. Women feature less often in comedy - especially as innovators - than positive, alternative, even feminist-ic women do in the music industry. Although, ya gotta love Dawn French, especially in Vicar of Dibley, and Ronnie Ancona is a brilliant impressionist. Etc.
But, here's a bit of Bl'adders, cos I feel like it :)
About Me
- Amy
- Constantly to be found eating or laughing, or even doing both at the same time - only to choke as a result. ...On the flip side... With something of a "fuck you" attitude, and general grr-ness, mixed with my beloved feminism, things can get a tad bit heated. Please note: this is a largely feminist blog, and, not meant to be an idiots guide to feminism. It should probably be mentioned, that I do tend to swear "like a sailor".

I think Bill Bailey is an absolute genius! I love his stand up shows!
Its a shame we dont see as many female comedians too, since I think its got something do with the idea that its not as attractive for a women to be funny. Or perhaps the idea that bloke’s prefer to be the ones to make everyone laugh, and their pride cant take it if a woman does it in stead. Or something like that.
Shame really, cause I would love a woman who could make me laugh. I most certainly wouldnt find it off putting for sure.
