Back in the '50s and '60s, when I was growing up,

ื‘ืฉื ื•ืช ื”50 ื•ื”60, ื›ืฉื’ื“ืœืชื™,

ื•ื™ืคื•ืช ื•ืขื“ื™ื ื•ืช ื•ืจื›ื•ืช.
00:46
and we were supposed to fit into roles

2000
ืฉื”ื™ื• ื“ื™ ืžืขื•ืจืคืœื•ืช.
00:50
really not quite clear what we were supposed to be.

There were plenty of role models all around us.

ื”ื™ื• ืœื ื• ืืžื”ื•ืช, ื“ื•ื“ื•ืช, ื‘ื ื•ืช ื“ื•ื“ื”, ืื—ื™ื•ืช,

and of course, the ever-present media

ื•ื›ืžื•ื‘ืŸ, ื”ืžื“ื™ื” ื”ื ื•ื›ื—ืช ืชืžื™ื“.
01:03
bombarding us with images and words,

ืื•ืžืจืช ืœื ื• ืื™ืš ืœื”ื™ื•ืช.

She was a homemaker,

2000
ื”ื™ื ื”ื™ื™ืชื” ืขืงืจืช ื‘ื™ืช,
01:13
but she and I didn't go out and do girlie things together,

Instead, she knew what I needed, and she bought me a book of cartoons.

ื•ืื ื™ ืคืฉื•ื˜ ื‘ืœืขืชื™ ืื•ืชื•.

I drew, and I drew,

82260
2000
ืื ื™ ืฆื™ื™ืจืชื™, ื•ืฆื™ื™ืจืชื™,
01:24
and since I knew that humor was acceptable in my family,

ื•ืœื ื”ื™ื™ืชื™ ืฆืจื™ื›ื” ืœื”ื•ืคื™ืข, ืœื ื”ื™ื™ืชื™ ืฆืจื™ื›ื” ืœื ืื•ื --

I was very shy --

91260
2000
ื”ื™ื™ืชื™ ืžืื•ื“ ื‘ื™ื™ืฉื ื™ืช --
01:33
and I could still get approval.

ื•ืขื“ื™ื™ืŸ ืœืงื‘ืœ ืืช ื”ื”ืกื›ืžื” ืฉืœื”ื.

I was launched as a cartoonist.

ื”ืชื—ืœืชื™ ืืช ื—ื™ื™ ื›ืงืจื™ืงื˜ื•ืจื™ืกื˜ื™ืช.
01:40
Now when we're young,
33

2000
ืขื›ืฉื™ื• ื›ืฉืื ื—ื ื• ืฆืขื™ืจื™ื,

105260
2000
ืื‘ืœ ืœื ืชืžื™ื“ ื™ื•ื“ืขื™ื --

ืื ื—ื ื• ืœื ืžื‘ืฆืขื™ื ืื•ืชื ื ื›ื•ืŸ,

even though we are imprinted at birth

ืืคื™ืœื• ืฉืื ื—ื ื• ืžื•ื˜ื‘ืขื™ื ื‘ืœื™ื“ื”

with these things,
38
111260
3000
ื‘ื—ื•ืงื™ื ื”ืืœื”,
01:54
and we're told
39

what the most important color in the world is.

02:02
(Laughter)
42
122260
3000
(ืฆื—ื•ืง)
02:05
We're told what to wear --
43
125260
2000
ืื•ืžืจื ืœื ื• ืžื” ืœืœื‘ื•ืฉ --
02:07
(Laughter)
44
127260
2000
(ืฆื—ื•ืง)

-- and how to do our hair --

-- ื•ืื™ืš ืœืขืฆื‘ ืืช ื”ืฉื™ืขืจ ืฉืœื ื• --

02:16
-- and how to behave.
47
136260
3000
-- ื•ืื™ืš ืœื”ืชื ื”ื’.
02:19
Now the rules that I'm talking about
48
139260
2000
ืขื›ืฉื™ื• ื”ื—ื•ืงื™ื ืฉืื ื™ ืžื“ื‘ืจืช ืขืœื™ื”ื

02:23
We're being corrected,
50
143260
2000
ืžืชืงื ื™ื ืื•ืชื ื•.
02:25
and the primary policemen are women,

145260
3000
ื•ื”ืฉื•ื˜ืจื•ืช ื”ืขื™ืงืจื™ื•ืช ื”ืŸ ื ืฉื™ื,
02:28
because we are the carriers of the tradition.
52

2000
ืžืคื ื™ ืฉืื ื—ื ื• ื ื•ืฉืื•ืช ื”ืžืกื•ืจืช.
02:30
We pass it down from generation to generation.

3000
ืื ื—ื ื• ืžืขื‘ื™ืจื™ื ืื•ืชื” ืžื“ื•ืจ ืœื“ื•ืจ
02:34
Not only that --
54
154260
2000
ืœื ืจืง,
02:36
we always have this vague notion
55
156260
2000
ืชืžื™ื“ ื™ืฉ ืœื ื• ืืช ื”ืจืขื™ื•ืŸ ื”ืžืขื•ืจืคืœ
02:38
that something's expected of us.

158260
2000
ืฉืžืฉื”ื• ืžืฆื•ืคื” ืžืื™ืชื ื•.
02:40
And on top of all off these rules,
57
160260
3000
ื•ื‘ื ื•ืกืฃ ืœื›ืœ ื”ื—ื•ืงื™ื ื”ืืœื”,
02:43
they keep changing.
58

2000
ื”ื ืžืžืฉื™ื›ื™ื ืœื”ืฉืชื ื•ืช.
02:45
(Laughter)
59
165260
4000
(ืฆื—ื•ืง)
02:49
We don't know what's going on half the time,
60
169260
3000
ื—ืฆื™ ืžื”ื–ืžืŸ ืื ื—ื ื• ืœื ื™ื•ื“ืขื•ืช ืžื” ืงื•ืจื”,
02:52
so it puts us in a very tenuous position.

ื•ื–ื” ืฉื ืื•ืชื ื• ื‘ืขืžื“ื” ื—ืœืฉื” ืžืื•ื“.
02:55
(Laughter)
62
175260
2000
(ืฆื—ื•ืง)
02:57
Now if you don't like these rules,
63
177260
2000
ืขื›ืฉื™ื• ืื ืืชืŸ ืœื ืื•ื”ื‘ื•ืช ืืช ื”ื—ื•ืงื™ื ื”ืืœื”,

and many of us don't --
64
179260
2000
ื•ืจื•ื‘ื ื• ืœื --
03:01
I know I didn't, and I still don't,
65

ืื ื™ ื™ื•ื“ืขืช ืฉืื ื™ ืœื ืื”ื‘ืชื™ ื•ืขื“ื™ื™ืŸ ืœื,

even though I follow them half the time,

2000
ืœืžืจื•ืช ืฉืื ื™ ืขื•ืžื“ืช ื‘ื”ืŸ ื—ืฆื™ ืžื”ื–ืžืŸ,

ืœื ืžืžืฉ ืขืจื” ืœืขื•ื‘ื“ื” ืฉืื ื™ ืขื•ืžื“ืช ื‘ื”ืŸ --
03:08
what better way than to change them [than] with humor?
68
188260

ืื™ื–ื” ื“ืจืš ื˜ื•ื‘ื” ื™ื•ืชืจ ืœืฉื ื•ืช ืื•ืชืŸ ืžืืฉืจ ืขื ื”ื•ืžื•ืจ?
03:13
Humor relies on the traditions of a society.

193260
3000
ื”ื•ืžื•ืจ ืžืกืชืžืš ืขืœ ื”ืžืกื•ืจืช ืฉืœ ื”ื—ื‘ืจื”.
03:16
It takes what we know, and it twists it.
70
196260
3000
ื”ื•ื ืœื•ืงื— ืืช ืžื” ืฉืื ื—ื ื• ื™ื•ื“ืขื™ื , ื•ืžืขื•ื•ืช ืืช ื–ื”.
03:19
It takes the codes of behavior and the codes of dress,
71
199260
2000
ื”ื•ื ืœื•ืงื— ืืช ื”ืงื•ื“ื™ื ืฉืœ ื”ื”ืชื ื”ื’ื•ืช ื•ืงื•ื“ื™ ื”ืœื‘ื•ืฉ,
03:21
and it makes it unexpected,
72
201260
2000
ื•ื”ื•ืคืš ืื•ืชื ืœืœื ืฆืคื•ื™ื™ื,
03:23
and that's what elicits a laugh.
73
203260
2000
ื•ื–ื” ืžื” ืฉืžืคื™ืง ืฆื—ื•ืงื™ื.
03:25
Now what if you put together women and humor?
74
205260
3000
ืขื›ืฉื™ื• ืžื” ื™ืงืจื” ืื ืชื—ื‘ืจื• ื ืฉื™ื ื•ื”ื•ืžื•ืจ?
03:28
I think you can get change.

208260
2000
ืื ื™ ื—ื•ืฉื‘ืช ืฉืชื•ื›ืœื• ืœืงื‘ืœ ืฉื™ื ื•ื™.
03:30
Because women are on the ground floor,
76
210260
2000
ืžืคื ื™ ืฉื ืฉื™ื ื”ืŸ ื‘ืงื•ืžืช ื”ืงืจืงืข,

ื•ืื ื—ื ื• ืžื›ื™ืจื™ื ืืช ื”ืžืกื•ืจื•ืช ื›ืœ ื›ืš ื˜ื•ื‘,
03:34
we can bring a different voice to the table.

2000
ืขื›ืฉื™ื• ื”ืชื—ืœืชื™ ืœืฆื™ื™ืจ
