Femapalooza has performed more than 35 shows every of which strictly bans male audience in several cities in India. Jeeya Sethi, the founder, says comedians in the company can take the role never without worrying about the response of men.
AFP: India's women-only comedy show tackles breasts, bras and bias
Indeed, many female comedians are aware of how they are looked at by men. Some of them are actually fun. But others seem not willing to act as so, I often think. It is no good if female comedians would not be successful until delighting men.
In addition, there are several discriminating and violating issue against women's right and safety in India. Such a situation is affecting the rising of Femapalooza, I guess.
However, I believe there are unlimited opportunities for expressing comedies. Women-only events, as well as men-only, should be accepted. I hope the attempt of Femapolooza would not be connected to the conflict between genders.
