Quote by Ellen DeGeneres

Comedy can be, especially in a writer's room, really aggressive, kind of a very male-dominated room, and it would be hard for women. It's not a nurturing place. It's not like a lot of women are going to say, I can't wait to live that lifestyle and be in a writer's room until 2 or 3 a.m.

Summary

This quote highlights the aggressive and male-dominated nature of comedy in writer's rooms, making it difficult for women to thrive. It depicts the writer's room as an unsupportive and non-nurturing environment, which can discourage women from pursuing careers in comedy. The late-night working hours further add to the challenges faced by women in this field, leading to a lack of female representation.
