She still got some, but her California is showing
I used to like Shlesinger. Then again, she used to be balanced in her views.
I was probably put off by her investing the first 5 minutes of her routine to berate men for "not realizing women are persons too before having a daughter of their own".
Well, I use routine quite liberally, as it was more preaching than funny.
Also, yeah, maybe. I know for a fact many women can be mothers and grandmothers to males without extending compassion to men, so there's that.
Don't know, maybe it's just me being thin-skinned.
Most of the audience's laughs are at the expense of men. Maybe because most jokes are too.
She has a part about pregnancy shrinking parts of women's brain, and making them unfunny. Even stating she can't afford that, being a comic with two kids.
Yep, agreed.
I was on the fence until she launched into the "real men are like this" tirade.
To echo Palahniuk, not sure one more woman trying to tell me what to do is the solution.
So yeah, she's gone pretty lefty with age. Not full retard, but definitely men=stupid women=victims, and political.
She even states it's the hill she's willing to die on.
Well, it's a free country.
Also, what with the trousers? She used to be hot. Now she's nice-looking for a forty-something.
And, before the cries of 'misogyny' and 'patriarchal male gaze': I remember McDonald, or even Carlin, being somewhat dashing young bucks, but they stopped playing to that at some point.
