John Something I don't know, I generally find that female comedians don't actually know how to tell a joke. You are supposed to set up a premise, and then turn that premise on its head with the punchline. For instance: *Three blondes walk into a bar* *You'd think one of them would have seen it* Whereas female comedians just try and explain why the joke is funny: *Three blondes walk into a bar, but it wasn't the type of bar you drink in, it was an iron bar, so that must have hurt, ouch!*
@@axldave9843 A lot of men have that attitude - that female comedians "don't know how to tell a joke". It's completely bizarre because they obviously can; that's why there are tons of female comedians with successful careers. So it leads me to think: do the brains of these men make them genuinely incapable of recognizing a joke when a woman tells it? Or is it just that they're so overwhelmingly insecure at the prospect of a woman being considered funny that they lie about their joke-telling ability and hope the people they're talking to will be too dumb to notice? It's baffling! Perhaps scientists can look into this issue and find the answer. Or better yet: perhaps bigots can grow up into adulthood at some point.

Pro tip folks - keep your hands and your opinions about people's appearance to yourself when at work. Your colleagues are not waiting around with bated breath hoping that you will validate them by providing unsolicited sexualized attention and comments. Honestly, don't hug your work colleagues unless you are actually friends with them. It's weird.
Andrew Smith I am a pro I because I manage a lot of people, and yes, it is I’ll advised to comment on anyone’s appearance when the only context of your relationship is work related. You are getting it, good job.
Andrew Smith I seem to fair quite well finding partners outside the workplace, it has never been a problem honestly. I have certainly worked with women I find attractive, but there are beautiful women everywhere, so I have never dates a colleague while we were still working together. I did end up marrying a woman who I worked with but we didn’t start dating until a year after I left that place. I have never had a colleague ask me to comment on her attire, so not sure what I would say. I would find it odd though and if it happened on the regular I would probably have a quick aside to find out why she kept asking me. Again, it has never so I am not sure. I don’t know what environment you work in but I am in a government ministry and we don’t really have a lot of time to sit around discussing each other’s clothes.
Andrew Smith Dude, you do whatever you want. You don’t work for me. Just don’t be surprised when things go sideways and you find yourself wrapped up in a harassment complaint.

@Hugh Jones That's a weird claim. Although I think I see what you're trying to say. Not going to challenge you on it as we'd only end up agreeing to disagree, but it might be helpful to clarify the meaning of a few things. Rachel:users her the phrase ironically to mock terms like alpha/beta and friendzone. People do actually use those terms and thing they are a thing. "Friendzone" is well-chosen because that phrase is only insulting if you ascribe to the belief that this reductionist way of viewing female personality and male-female relationships is holds practical weight (it doesn't).. "Beta" only works as an insult if you ascribe to the "real man" fallacy, which falls flat on its face if you make a more nuanced study of masculine personality in context with the *real world*.. When people talk about misogyny, it's very often about this extremely reductive view which reduces women, and male relationships down to simple algorithms which place you in, say, a "friendzone" or "potential lover" category. That's insulting to women, because women aren't, in actual fact, objects, or simple algorithms to be "solved". Women are actually living, breathing people with hopes, dreams, personalities, personal preferences... The real genus behind the phrasing is that it turns the tables by applying the same reductive reasoning on the alpha male red pill folks. It offends because because it oversimplifies them and strips them of identity and exposes the core hypocrisy: that it's okay to reduce women and strip them of their identity, but not self-identified "alpha" men.

@Z Shehzadi Humor is subjective. I like dark humor , not washed up scripted garbage that keeps repeating terrible arguments that are either taken severely out of context or already disproved. Not to mention the insanely terrible acting & fake laugh she puts up the entire time.
Oh thank god someone finally explained it. I was having the worst time pretending that I just couldn't understand what was wrong with hiding under a woman's bed for hours to wait for her to come home then say "HULLO!" when she finally laid down to fall asleep!\ Thanks Nish!
"So I'm afraid that life is going to get harder now that we're not allowed to sexually harrass anyone. Of course it is". That deserved a laugh/applause that her character was being apologetic in that middle class kind of way.
People really be acting like it's hard to not become a sexual predator as if one day they'll just trip or something and suddenly molest somebody whilst aggressively asking for sex
That's what Nish would want you to believe. In truth though if you gave a cheery hello to some people they wouldn't be fine with it at all. This is just a comedy show, of course, but they're skirting the actual issue in exactly the same way that the Daily Mail skirts it, by taking it to an extreme in order to mock it and the implication is that men are stupid for even thinking there are issues here because it should be obvious that saying Hello is fine but grabbing someone isn't. No one thought the latter. Bottom line though is that this men vs women thing is largely a product of the USA - American men and women hate each other over there just as black and white Americans hate each other and - well whatever, America exists for creating division and social media amplifies it. Whether it's democrat vs republican or pro choice vs pro life - it's all dumb American shit. Sadly the shit has started to leak - mostly because of the internet. It's coming to the UK even when the problem doesn't exist here which undoubtedly makes it more confusing for people who have to fret about whether their normal conversation or behaviour is going to trigger the person they're talking to because they read too much reddit - and they imagine someone saying hello is grooming them or whatever. Remember Americans think that wearing certain clothes is 'cultural appropriation' and thus racist. It used to be that you had to gas jews to be "far right" but now people who say they don't like the new Doctor Who are "far right" - these people are trying to make a joke but the reality is much funnier.
@@michael1 I was with you on your first paragraph, but in your second you dismiss the "abortion" debate as "dumb". Truth is it's the UK that is morally bankrupt for not even considering this an issue. You can't abort a person and intentionally killing a human being in a premeditated way is murder. "Abortion" statistics should be crime statistics. You're wrong to find fault with the US when actually the US is a society that fights over issues worth fighting for. In the UK we just wave the white flag and let the left dictate everything.
@@shaunhunterit342 It is dumb. Especially given the large number of people foaming at the mouth about it emotively like yourself here. It exists in the US purely to divide along political grounds. As for killing people. Killing people isn't murder - by far the largest number of people killed deliberately by other people (numbers counting in the hundreds of millions) no one was charged with murder, no one was arrested. Killing people can be murder but only in a limited set of circumstances. Things aren't crimes because you spit the dummy and whine online calling them "murder" - murder is a specific legal thing that, as I said, doesn't apply to the majority of people who are killed by other people. Intentionally killing someone hasn't been classed as murder, statistically speaking, in most of the cases where people have been killed by others. Think about that. There's your flaw. It's the minority of cases where killing people is murder - and there's specific things that make it so. Saying something you don't like is murder is as stupid as saying something you don't like is jumping a stop sign or flying a plane without the correct lighting. The law doesn't work how you think it does. And you're not fighting for anything. Stop deluding yourself. You're typing a youtube comment on a video for a comedy show. You have about as much influence on politics as if you'd taken a dump. Nothing you do or say will ever be of any consequence - get some self awareness.
Really though? Can I ask in all seriousness: are you a real person or a bot? No offense, really, I'm struggling to believe that anyone in this comment section is real. Thanks in advance.
She does an extremely good work by walking on the fine line between pseudofeministic teeth grinding and male supremacist blather and does it in an almost unhinged way. Really superb performance.
3:59 - "Don't worry, Nish. Nish, don't worry. You're a non-threatening beta male who's absolutely tailor made for the Friend Zone." Jokes are great, but that was just straight up savage. lol
there is a very easy was to see if something is sexual harassment ... before you do something just imagine how you would feel if a Homosexual man build like Brock Lesnar would do the same to you.
Mathias B. Why a homosexual man? Are you saying that women are not sexually attracted to men, or do you just need abandon the relevant context in order to equate the male approach to sex with the female approach?
Of course women make men feel uncomfortable. Just like women can and do rape men. One of the issues is that the stats currently say that it's men who do most of the harassing. Especially men in positions of power (ie: at work) and from what I've seen on YT and reddit and almost everywhere, it's men who are also in the majority of getting defensive when they're called out on it. Doing a sketch that points out men harass women does not imply that women do NOT harass men. Nowhere does it imply that. But your knee-jerk reaction is to get defensive and say 'WOMEN DO IT TOO!!1' instead of actually taking the issue onboard and looking at the point the sketch is making. It's the mental equivalent of sticking your head in the sand.
Once I asked for help from a guy, the way I help others. Then he began to pressure me into meeting him for a date, and he already has a wife. It often happens so I learned to be wary of asking for help. Isn't helping other people a natural thing to do if you are capable of it?
I wish more people would take this on board, just because I'm a good looking guy doesn't mean you can give me unbearably long unsolicited hugs, or squeeze me bum.
There is no objective standard. Its entirely based on how someone else feels. The only way to NOT sexually harass a woman is avoid her entirely. Don't talk to her, don't look at her, don't walk past her.
It's almost as if different women are more comfortable with different things and the whole point is to properly read and consider their feelings instead of just acting on your own
I'm so happy hugging is less ok. It is awkward and way too much physical contact. A simple hello is fine. I don't need to make physical contact with people all the bloody time.
It's actually almost funny how some people think it's only to sexually harass people. But this video definitely shows that it can be a hilarious topic by making fun of those people.
Rachel really does prove the idiots that say female comedians arent funny wrong. Her deliver is on par with even someone like James Acaster (the man is all delivery). Good stuff, her sense of irony is amazing
I got sensitivity training at work a while back. We were taught that we CAN say: "Those shoes look nice!" but we can NOT say: "Those shoes look nice on you!" - of course, the next 12 weeks everybody was complimenting EVERYONE: "Those shoes make you look hot af!" Management felt we didn't take them seriously. We replied that we'd really "take them", and "seriously, too", with a wink. We're all unemployed and registered sex offenders now. When the cops came to arrest us they put us in handcuffs, which we all interpreted as sexual assault with a sexual toy (handcuffs), so the police officers are in prison with us. Now we all wear the same sexy shoes. All is well.
As an older guy that's something I find annoying. If young man compliments a random female, many of them appreciate it, if I do it, I am automatically considered an evil old man. Ironically, most older men are more gentlemanly than young guys.
She's trying to make fun of 'obvious crazy complaints' about the metoo-campaign, yet she gives no answers. How is hugging a collegue ok, yet not an arm around the shoulder? How is this not a confusing grey area?
@Sabrina Kall hum. Quite good as a general rule. But there's a problem still. You'll never gona hit on your sister in law, on the other hand you may flirt with your colleague. So, is flirting allowed? Should it be absolutely banned? If it's allowed what is acceptable and what is not? You see, not as obvious as you might think.
Who says women can't be funny? Or as funny as men? Just depends on style and execution. This is absolutely beautiful. A lot of female "comedians" can take note.

This is absolutely perfect. For women, life is prison rules.
Example:
"Hey I'm headed out for lunch, want anything?" (Friendly, NBD)
"Hey I got your favourite food from XYZ." (If a prior friendship is established and a love for XYZ is known, absolutely fine. But if this is gifted by someone she barely knows, a woman immediately wonders "what ulterior movie do you have? How do you know I like XYZ? And how do you know my favourite food from there?

Pro tip folks - keep your hands and your opinions about people's appearance to yourself when at work. Your colleagues are not waiting around with bated breath hoping that you will validate them by providing unsolicited sexualized attention and comments.
Honestly, don't hug your work colleagues unless you are actually friends with them. It's weird.
Andrew Smith I am a pro I because I manage a lot of people, and yes, it is I’ll advised to comment on anyone’s appearance when the only context of your relationship is work related. You are getting it, good job.
Spike Flea Or gainfully employed and in good standing with my management and employees, you know, like an adult.
Andrew Smith I seem to fair quite well finding partners outside the workplace, it has never been a problem honestly.
I have certainly worked with women I find attractive, but there are beautiful women everywhere, so I have never dates a colleague while we were still working together. I did end up marrying a woman who I worked with but we didn’t start dating until a year after I left that place.
I have never had a colleague ask me to comment on her attire, so not sure what I would say. I would find it odd though and if it happened on the regular I would probably have a quick aside to find out why she kept asking me. Again, it has never so I am not sure.
I don’t know what environment you work in but I am in a government ministry and we don’t really have a lot of time to sit around discussing each other’s clothes.
Andrew Smith ok, let’s imagine you did ignore her. What do you think would happen?
Andrew Smith Dude, you do whatever you want. You don’t work for me. Just don’t be surprised when things go sideways and you find yourself wrapped up in a harassment complaint.

"Tailor made to fit the friendzone" is something I'm adding to my vocabulary whenever I'm uncomfortable with people
Really? It seems like when people are uncomfortable with me they don't add me as a friend at all. I don't know, maybe I've got it wrong, maybe they actually fancy me and they're too afraid to admit it, most probably because they already have partners.
@@AdamButt "maybe they actually fancy me and they're too afraid to admit it, most probably because they already have partners."

So you support the rape and harassment of women?
@@kirbyhatesincels917 you really crack me up
what an uncivilised, extreme, and completely idiotic accusation
personally I don't get any of her jokes either, she seems really inconsistent with whom she's parodying, and whether she's even parodying or not
it seriously confused me lol
Salem Gelidi then you’re just slow in your humour development then aren’t you little one.
@@hazelinax2085 if only you could exit your own little communal bubble, you would be able to tell how inconsistent and confusing her tone is
"Non-threatening beta male that is tailor-made for the friend zone." I think I related a bit too much to that.
@Hugh Jones That's a weird claim. Although I think I see what you're trying to say. Not going to challenge you on it as we'd only end up agreeing to disagree, but it might be helpful to clarify the meaning of a few things.
Rachel:users her the phrase ironically to mock terms like alpha/beta and friendzone. People do actually use those terms and thing they are a thing. "Friendzone" is well-chosen because that phrase is only insulting if you ascribe to the belief that this reductionist way of viewing female personality and male-female relationships is holds practical weight (it doesn't).. "Beta" only works as an insult if you ascribe to the "real man" fallacy, which falls flat on its face if you make a more nuanced study of masculine personality in context with the *real world*..
When people talk about misogyny, it's very often about this extremely reductive view which reduces women, and male relationships down to simple algorithms which place you in, say, a "friendzone" or "potential lover" category. That's insulting to women, because women aren't, in actual fact, objects, or simple algorithms to be "solved". Women are actually living, breathing people with hopes, dreams, personalities, personal preferences...
The real genus behind the phrasing is that it turns the tables by applying the same reductive reasoning on the alpha male red pill folks. It offends because because it oversimplifies them and strips them of identity and exposes the core hypocrisy: that it's okay to reduce women and strip them of their identity, but not self-identified "alpha" men.
@@samw1501 Brilliant post. The whole script (whether Nish was 'in' on it or not, as everything can be scripted) was perfectly delivered and works on a few levels
@Andrew Smith and she's not wrong
And she made a hypocrite of herself right there. A man making a similar statement to a woman would be considered harassment.
I already kinda liked Rachel Paris.... But this bit of hers completely blew me off... 😂 Her dilivery is amazing and the timing of nish bashings...gold 🤣
And... She could give Dolores Umbridge a taste of her own medicine! 🤣

@Andrew Smith as if it doesn't happen already or hasn't been the case historically 🙄. Please keep your whataboutism at bay.
Andrew Smith that’s the point, men often say those things to women so it’s funny to have that turned on its head
@Andrew Smith dude you are a special one. Stop fixating on one sentence and taking it out of context. If just that sentence hurt you, now you should be all the more careful when talking to anyone so as to not hurt them. Be it a man or a woman.
@Andrew Smith are you Nish Kumar Advocate? Did he have a problem with that? Why are sure that was an insult? You felt insulted so it makes an insult? What is wrong in being a beta male? Way to miss the point and cry over non issues.
this women > amy schummer
you got something very wrong here
Yeah, I only see a woman
anyone > amy schummer.
Yeah, this woman is actually funny AND attractive.
I laughed more in this five minute video than I have in Amy's entire career.
In my opinion:
Was it a high bar to set? No.
Was it accurate? Very. Like saying who is better at swimming? A fish, or a dead tortoise?
Rachel should have her own show, with Nish as her sidekick.
they both got front kicked OFF , why that you may ask , ... they NO GOOD!!!

I am glad Rachel Parris is getting more time on stage in series 2. This persona is hilarious and she has fantastic delivery.
Damn, this woman would destroy you in a domestic argument with that condescending but lovely smile.
maybe if she also scripted that argument way ahead & practiced it a few times off-screen like they did here or do you honestly not realize she's just following a script, a terrible one at that.
@Z Shehzadi Humor is subjective. I like dark humor , not washed up scripted garbage that keeps repeating terrible arguments that are either taken severely out of context or already disproved. Not to mention the insanely terrible acting & fake laugh she puts up the entire time.

"non threatening beta male, tailored made for friend zone." I'm dead...😂
I have forwarded this to my HR department as a suggested replacement to the boring video they now use. Fully expect a rejection.
Oh thank god someone finally explained it. I was having the worst time pretending that I just couldn't understand what was wrong with hiding under a woman's bed for hours to wait for her to come home then say "HULLO!" when she finally laid down to fall asleep!\
Thanks Nish!
"So I'm afraid that life is going to get harder now that we're not allowed to sexually harrass anyone. Of course it is".
That deserved a laugh/applause that her character was being apologetic in that middle class kind of way.
Well, women are allowed to do it to men, it seems.
People really be acting like it's hard to not become a sexual predator as if one day they'll just trip or something and suddenly molest somebody whilst aggressively asking for sex
That's what Nish would want you to believe. In truth though if you gave a cheery hello to some people they wouldn't be fine with it at all. This is just a comedy show, of course, but they're skirting the actual issue in exactly the same way that the Daily Mail skirts it, by taking it to an extreme in order to mock it and the implication is that men are stupid for even thinking there are issues here because it should be obvious that saying Hello is fine but grabbing someone isn't. No one thought the latter.
Bottom line though is that this men vs women thing is largely a product of the USA - American men and women hate each other over there just as black and white Americans hate each other and - well whatever, America exists for creating division and social media amplifies it. Whether it's democrat vs republican or pro choice vs pro life - it's all dumb American shit. Sadly the shit has started to leak - mostly because of the internet. It's coming to the UK even when the problem doesn't exist here which undoubtedly makes it more confusing for people who have to fret about whether their normal conversation or behaviour is going to trigger the person they're talking to because they read too much reddit - and they imagine someone saying hello is grooming them or whatever. Remember Americans think that wearing certain clothes is 'cultural appropriation' and thus racist. It used to be that you had to gas jews to be "far right" but now people who say they don't like the new Doctor Who are "far right" - these people are trying to make a joke but the reality is much funnier.
@@michael1 Where the f*** did that racist diatribe come from?
@@michael1 I was with you on your first paragraph, but in your second you dismiss the "abortion" debate as "dumb". Truth is it's the UK that is morally bankrupt for not even considering this an issue. You can't abort a person and intentionally killing a human being in a premeditated way is murder. "Abortion" statistics should be crime statistics. You're wrong to find fault with the US when actually the US is a society that fights over issues worth fighting for. In the UK we just wave the white flag and let the left dictate everything.
@@shaunhunterit342 It is dumb. Especially given the large number of people foaming at the mouth about it emotively like yourself here. It exists in the US purely to divide along political grounds.
As for killing people. Killing people isn't murder - by far the largest number of people killed deliberately by other people (numbers counting in the hundreds of millions) no one was charged with murder, no one was arrested.
Killing people can be murder but only in a limited set of circumstances.
Things aren't crimes because you spit the dummy and whine online calling them "murder" - murder is a specific legal thing that, as I said, doesn't apply to the majority of people who are killed by other people. Intentionally killing someone hasn't been classed as murder, statistically speaking, in most of the cases where people have been killed by others. Think about that.
There's your flaw. It's the minority of cases where killing people is murder - and there's specific things that make it so. Saying something you don't like is murder is as stupid as saying something you don't like is jumping a stop sign or flying a plane without the correct lighting.
The law doesn't work how you think it does.
And you're not fighting for anything. Stop deluding yourself. You're typing a youtube comment on a video for a comedy show. You have about as much influence on politics as if you'd taken a dump. Nothing you do or say will ever be of any consequence - get some self awareness.
They both did so well. This is excellent

I'm sharing this with my Sociology class since we're currently studying sexual harassment 😂
Idk. I just get a John Oliver vibe from her
a condescending puppet posing as a 'comedian' to push an agenda
Now that is just rude, there is no need for personal insults.
Z Zs you're only saying that because she's a woman
yeah, with better delivery too.
Augusto Pinochet - The joke flew right over your head, didn't it? This was more a comment about John Oliver as about her.
She's absolutely hilarious. Delivery, facial expressions, improvised lines. Everything was fucking spot on!

" there's no blood flowing anywhere" quit lying Nish 😂😂

2:17 - What do you mean, "sorry Nish?" lol
I'm not gonna lie this was helpful

there is a very easy was to see if something is sexual harassment ... before you do something just imagine how you would feel if a Homosexual man build like Brock Lesnar would do the same to you.
Mathias B.
Why a homosexual man? Are you saying that women are not sexually attracted to men, or do you just need abandon the relevant context in order to equate the male approach to sex with the female approach?
Of course women make men feel uncomfortable. Just like women can and do rape men. One of the issues is that the stats currently say that it's men who do most of the harassing. Especially men in positions of power (ie: at work) and from what I've seen on YT and reddit and almost everywhere, it's men who are also in the majority of getting defensive when they're called out on it.
Doing a sketch that points out men harass women does not imply that women do NOT harass men. Nowhere does it imply that. But your knee-jerk reaction is to get defensive and say 'WOMEN DO IT TOO!!1' instead of actually taking the issue onboard and looking at the point the sketch is making. It's the mental equivalent of sticking your head in the sand.
Disclaimer: This was tried and tested on sane women, may not work on feminists.

this video was neither satirical nor surreal. It was torture
"Welcome to womanhood" was spot-on 😅
Once I asked for help from a guy, the way I help others. Then he began to pressure me into meeting him for a date, and he already has a wife. It often happens so I learned to be wary of asking for help. Isn't helping other people a natural thing to do if you are capable of it?
I like how he stares into the camera and challenges you to laugh.
Twist Ending: Nish opens up a sexual harassment file on Rachel.
That would be priceless
I wish more people would take this on board, just because I'm a good looking guy doesn't mean you can give me unbearably long unsolicited hugs, or squeeze me bum.
Came back to this five years later just to rewatch her brilliance, still just as funny 😂 Rachel Parris for supreme overlord of the world plz
There is no objective standard. Its entirely based on how someone else feels. The only way to NOT sexually harass a woman is avoid her entirely. Don't talk to her, don't look at her, don't walk past her.
It's almost as if different women are more comfortable with different things and the whole point is to properly read and consider their feelings instead of just acting on your own
Your last sentence sounds like a good idea for you specifically.
not only very funny, but that sarcastic acting.. that was pretty cool!
Now that's the very definition of sexual harrasement! But he took it like a real man!

Loved that the most, it was perfection.
I know how not to sexually assault someone, by not doing it. Show respect, keep your distance and hands to yourself, simple.
I'm so happy hugging is less ok. It is awkward and way too much physical contact. A simple hello is fine. I don't need to make physical contact with people all the bloody time.
Rob Elliott hey hugs are great!
So... you're a sociopath. Get some help.
"Non threatening beta male tailored for the friend zone"

It's actually almost funny how some people think it's only to sexually harass people. But this video definitely shows that it can be a hilarious topic by making fun of those people.
"Welcome to womanhood."
Rachel really does prove the idiots that say female comedians arent funny wrong. Her deliver is on par with even someone like James Acaster (the man is all delivery). Good stuff, her sense of irony is amazing
This woman is the literal embodiment of the BBC.
Are you dumb?
I got sensitivity training at work a while back. We were taught that we CAN say: "Those shoes look nice!" but we can NOT say: "Those shoes look nice on you!" - of course, the next 12 weeks everybody was complimenting EVERYONE: "Those shoes make you look hot af!"
Management felt we didn't take them seriously. We replied that we'd really "take them", and "seriously, too", with a wink.
We're all unemployed and registered sex offenders now. When the cops came to arrest us they put us in handcuffs, which we all interpreted as sexual assault with a sexual toy (handcuffs), so the police officers are in prison with us. Now we all wear the same sexy shoes. All is well.
Felt every moment of his torture, yet I'm LMAO.
This could be the greatest comedy-news bit ever put together.
Rachel and Nish are such a good combo, she's hilarious and he's just confused and anxious
Im American, but this may be my new favorite show!😂
As an older guy that's something I find annoying. If young man compliments a random female, many of them appreciate it, if I do it, I am automatically considered an evil old man. Ironically, most older men are more gentlemanly than young guys.
Just do what I do and don't get involved.
Some people need to hyperventilate in public for attention.
She's trying to make fun of 'obvious crazy complaints' about the metoo-campaign, yet she gives no answers. How is hugging a collegue ok, yet not an arm around the shoulder? How is this not a confusing grey area?
@Sabrina Kall hum. Quite good as a general rule. But there's a problem still. You'll never gona hit on your sister in law, on the other hand you may flirt with your colleague. So, is flirting allowed? Should it be absolutely banned? If it's allowed what is acceptable and what is not? You see, not as obvious as you might think.
bill clinton still hasn't gotten the memo.

Who says women can't be funny? Or as funny as men? Just depends on style and execution. This is absolutely beautiful. A lot of female "comedians" can take note.
