...but female comedians have used the stage to attack males, as well. Comedy is what it is --usually somebody making a joke at somebody else's expense.

I'm a woman. Bill Maher doesn't offend me. Sometimes I roll my eyes, like I do with many comedians when they go "over the top," or I say out loud, "Bill!" in a disapproving mother voice, but then I forget about it.
