Female comic Jen Kirkman on ex-LATE SHOW talent booker and sexism in stand-up biz.

Ms. Kirkman's blog post is well worth reading; kudos to her for jumping hurdles and making a living in a culture where funny women often get told they're "not funny" and/or have to deal with male biases and hangups (presuming a lot of talent bookers/TV execs prefer their female comics "fuckable" and nonscary/nonconfrontational to men).
