Women and Comedy: Target Women

Why, you might ask, is February "comedy month" at Leda's Revenge when there are is so much going on right now? Well, I could write every day about some new outrage.

Haskins doesn't get angry, but instead exposes just how ridiculous (and potentially funny) our culture and its media can be. Alas, Haskins left Target Women just last month, but fortunately, she left us with far more youtube-able material than the three examples below. So go ahead and laugh before rolling up your sleeves and getting to work:
