Summary

This quote suggests that female comedians like Joy Behar, Sherri Shepherd, and Roseanne Barr might not receive as much recognition or success if they were men. The quote implies a double standard in the entertainment industry, implying that men are perceived as funnier than women, and therefore female comedians are not given the same opportunities. It invites reflection on the potential gender bias that exists in the field of comedy and highlights the importance of recognizing and challenging such biases.
