I was reading an article in GQ(the comedy issue, July 2010)about funny men(paul rudd, zach galifinakis, tracy morgan featured) and there's a spread of a lot of different funny people this year and people too look out for. Few women were recognized (some none the less), but what I did notice was how they were portrayed. Yes, its a men's magazine and I'm all for women being sexy and funny, BUT the article on Emma Stone was 1/4 about her career and 3/4 about her practically being jailbait and how great her ass was. Does it matter how women are portrayed to the comedy world? This question brings me back to the Marie Claire article, about women not being "too sexy" for comedy. Does it really matter? If so, why?
hmmm....
