Gross Things That Happened To Me: Harassment, Sexism, and Assault of Women In Comedy

I posted up an anonymous form allowing the women of our comedy community to share some of their experiences of harassment, sexism, and/or assault within our community. Within just a few hours, I had over 70 submissions from several different cities and countries. More are still coming in.

Update as of 1/27/16 - We now have 330 submissions and counting...

This is some of what was shared. Part One. We will be putting on an event in Chicago, Grand Rapids, Miami and Boston Valentine's week to stand up for women in our community. To attend the event in Chicago at the Laugh Factory - click here for more info or for tickets.
