Women In Comedy

Women In Comedy Women in Comedy holds improv comedy shows as well as an annual fundraiser for the SAAFE Center (Bowling Green's Rape crisis center).

Women in Comedy is an all female comedy troupe which raises funds for Wood County's rape crisis center, the SAAFE Center as well as raises awareness for social minority representation in the media, specifically women. The annual fundraiser will incorporate a number of women who will perform in various areas of comedy such as stand up, long or short form improvisation, and sketches. What we hope to

accomplish is bring awareness to our campus of the way in which women are exceedingly marginalized in comedy. As well as raise money for The SAAFE Center, Bowling Green's Rape Crisis Center.

Amen to that!

Love this quote from Joss Whedon, the creator of one of the most famous show’s featuring a strong female protagonist, “Buffy the Vampire Slayer.” Although there has been some progress, the need for prominent female characters in TV and films is still huge. According to a study by the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media of 122 films, of the 5,554 speaking characters, only 29.2% were female.

Kudos to Joss Whedon for featuring so many strong female characters in his shows, a tendency he contributes to his mother’s influence over his worldview!

If you’re a fan of Buffy or other female superheroes, check out our new “Superhero Character Collection” for an assortment of superhero-related books, toys, action figures, and games at http://www.amightygirl.com/character-collection/superhero-characters
