9 colossal Amy Schumer quotes that will make you laugh and think

Amy Schumer is mostly known for her comedy and movies. She also uses her popularity to fight the rape culture in America. The number of rapes in American colleges is through the roof and the latest developments around President Trump in the lead up to his election raise more eyebrows around this topic. In Friday Night Lights Amy makes a mockery of the male culture in America. She has also been featured in Time, Salon & Variety and won Glamour's Trailblazer of the year award. Hereby you find nine of her quotes to make you laugh and think.

1. I feel very comfortable in my own skin. When someone makes jokes about me being heavy, it makes me mad. It's not true. I'm right where I should be.
2. I think you can go from being not very funny to working really hard for 10 years and figuring out how to make a living on the road, but I don't think you can rise much above that.
3. I'll never forget the day I realised I wasn't quite the Ford model I thought I was.
4. I tend to eat pretty healthily, though, and I work out - I work out hard.
5. I just say what I think is the funniest thing I could say. I'm not trying to make headlines. I'm just trying to say the stuff that I think is funny and will make people laugh.
6. The last couple of roles I missed out on went to Jennifer Hudson, Jessica Biel and Olivia Wilde.
7. I think of myself as a fairly attractive girl and always have, thanks to my mum. I was brought into this world thinking I was gorgeous because my mother was extremely devoted to this notion.
8. I like to create stuff. I like to express myself through jokes.
9. I've always been really dark and drawn to darker humour. Nothing has been forced, and I don't say anything for shock value.

Conclusion

I personally have seen Amy Schumer on stage and in movies. Her style is provocative to my taste even though she denies it in these quotes. Taking sexuality straight on like she does and how women are perceived and behave shines a clear light on the oversexed culture that we are living in. The fact that she is standing up for college student which have been raped makes her even more likeable and I hope some women find inspiration in her to believe that they are beautiful, say no and go out there and do something great.
