With my boyfriend, we can make sexist jokes to each other because we know it's absolutely not true. If I get home from a long day and he says: 'Go on, get in the kitchen,' it's funny because we know it's not our lives.

There are some professions that culturally and sociologically take a long time to change, and because of that, there's still sexism in comedy audiences. We shouldn't blame them: I do it too. A woman comes on, and I feel slightly anxious. I'm a woman in comedy, and I do that; I think everyone does.

I'm beginning to think I have two years encountering sexism without really realising it.

I certainly don't recognise myself as the horrible sexist portrayed in media reports, and I don't think the women who have worked with me throughout my career do either.

Men, who certainly possess not only the savvy but also the know-how to be funny, for some reason, are just not. I began to notice this at a pretty young age, and unfortunately, a lifetime of living - and not a little bit of regret - hasn't done much to convince me otherwise.

I do earnestly wish to see the distinction of sex confounded in society, unless where love animates the behaviour.

I'm not sexist in any way - sexism is another form of violence, and there are many great men in this world.

I'm a woman, but I've been a sexist, too.

There's something about dinosaurs that should be very humbling to human beings.

The world is still sexist.
