Would feminists approve of a woman becoming a clown?

Question

Or would this be considered degrading?

Answer 1

If that's what she wants, why not?

Answer 2

Maybe, but I certainly think feminists would approve of other feminists becoming clowns - that what feminism is a heart - an evil joke.  

Answer 3

No.  Being a clown is a perfectly respectable job.

Answer 4

Personally, I don't approve of anyone becoming a clown.  I find them deeply and profoundly unfunny.  However, I don't mind other people being clowns so long as I don't have to watch them.

Answer 5

Approve

Answer 6

If that's what she wants to do.

I don't see how it'd be degrading.

Answer 7

I don’t know Rollie, why don’t you tell us, what is it like being a clown?  

Answer 8

Clowns scare the h**l out of me and I have no idea why anyone would want to become one, but that's their business.

Answer 9

Only if they don't bite and have an equal opportunity at "clowning" around!  :D  

Answer 10

The Harlequin is a very old and respected profession.

Answer 11

Wow - Naturally... I've been censored. I left my answer about 1/2 hour ago and when I tried to check back... they pulled my answer... I didn't use any profanity or anything obscene, I only used history as a marker and they took off my response... WOW! This is the last time I am using yahoo answer. They censored what I had to say.

I checked answer list in my profile and the question didn't even show up on my account, I had to do a search for this question just to get back to it. I should have known better than to believe that a Giant corporation as such would be interested in free speech.

Answer 12

s*x change operations are fine with us.

Answer 13

hey dude.   i actually knew some chicks that worked as clowns.  i knew dudes too that did it.  they entertained kids.  there's nothing wrong with clowns.  it's an honest profession.  don't disrespect them.

Answer 14

it's obvious you have absolutely no understanding of feminisim and to answer your ahem, question, feminists couldn't care less what women choose to be or do, as long as it's their choice.

Answer 15

If you mean professional entertainers who wear clown costumes, many women already do this type of work.

Cheers :-)

Answer 16

  No. If you enjoy this position and are doing with integrity, I'm sure it'll be fine.

Good luck in any future clowning escapades!
