Claire Hodgson, Cosmopolitan, 3rd December 2014Chris Dangerfield on Dapper Laughs: victim of jealousy?
"Look, I don't give a shit about the bullshit personal private greedy agendas of these liberal f***s who draw arbitrary lines to serve their own agendas - and that's what they've done. That's why they're not talking about Russell Brand, Doug Stanhope, Bill Burr. But Dapper Laughs - some working class shitbag from nowhere who has said a couple of pretty unfunny things - he's a target. He hasn't said anything anywhere near as 'bad' as any of that other lot. I don't care what they say, myself. I love it. But, if you look at the criteria these people have used when talking about Dapper Laughs, then these people - Brand, Stanhope, Burr - are far 'worse'. It's all bullshit."

We're good at selective outrage in this country, aren't we? I'm just as glad as you are that Dapper Laughs is off the TV, but it's hardly the moral victory we're making it out to be.
Sean O'Meara, The Huffington Post, 17th November 2014Dissecting misogyny in comedy
To me, as pleased as I am that some good has been done to remove Dapper Laughs from the limelight, the whole process is only a small victory of under-the-carpet sweeping that still, unfortunately, does little to tackle the very real existence of parodied misogyny in both comedy, and in everyday life.
