Well that's me out, damn this curse of being a young handsome strapping lad, with my square jaw and washboard abs.

And I am a 25 year old brunette heiress ;)

Someone told me gullible wasn't in the dictionary, but enough digression, do you want to go out sometime? :D

As much I would love this topic buried as it gives me a headache now, I thought I'd post up the link cause

a) It might interest some of you. It was a good dicussion.

b) Cause it's a link from THAT SITE, it will wind up a few bods! ;)

It's not much to do with the lack of women but it might prove interesting.

I think it's more important to be a comic who just happens to be female that a female comic. In an ideal world, there shouldn't be that divide. I rarely rely on gender stereotypes as I find this boring and over done. I do write a lot of stuff with both male and female parts (giggle and smirk) but my focus is humour and surrealism, not gender. It's only when you focus on being a woman struggling in a man's world that you become one.

Nothing is sadder that a woman who has to rely constantly on stereotypical sexual roles to be funny. Just be you! Gender is at the bottom of the list, having fun and doing what you love is the first.

I'd love to - can you pick me up outside my sheltered housing accomodation at about 3? We could go to the Tea Dance in the village hall. I'll make sure I put my teeth in because their scones are a bit hard.

Wow, rich and modest, it's a win, win situation.
