This is a feminist bookstore. There is no humor section.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The humor section is the last place an author wants to be. They put your stuff next to collections of Cathy cartoons.
Who laughs less than feminists?
Feminism is just an idea. It's a philosophy. It's about the equality of women in all realms. It's not about man-hating. It's not about being humorless. We have to let go of these misconceptions that have plagued feminism for 40, 50 years.
If we can't have comedy books written about aspects of womanhood without going into a panic attack about it, then we haven't got very far at being equal.
To me, I've never understood why there is any question about are women as funny as men.
It's easier to sit there and say you don't like feminists because they don't have a sense of humor.
I'm not funny. People assume that because my books are funny, I'll be funny in real life. It's the inevitable disappointment of meeting me.
A book without potty humor is like a banana split without hot fudge. It can still be good, I suppose, but you kinda get the feeling that something is missing.
There's always an article coming out, saying, 'The new thing is funny women!'
I can't not put humor in a book.
