Are you in the mood for a funny-haha? Particularly of the lesbian variety? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered here at AfterEllen. There are a ton of lesbian comedians out there who never get their due (shocking, right?) From Wanda Sykes to Hannah Gadsby, we have carefully curated our top five favorite lesbian comedians, just for you! Scroll through this list if you are looking to laugh, cry, and then cry from how much you’re laughing. Trust.
Fortune Feimster
Fortune Feimster is one of the sweetest humans alive, we swear. Check out her comedy specials on Netflix to have your heart filled with love, joy, and a little sadness there too. We love you, Fortune!
Hannah Gadsby
Speaking of new Netflix specials, you have to check out Hannah Gadsby’s latest work. You will giggle along with her stories, and feel like you have entered an under the sea adventure, all at once. We love a mermaid lesbian!
Wanda Sykes
Wanda Sykes is back in the standup world! Or… maybe she never left? Her latest special is as funny as ever, and a wonderful reminder of her growth and how far we’ve truly come in the standup world. Show Wanda a little love, she deserves it!
Mae Martin
We truly love Mae Martin. She came up out of nowhere it feels like, and if you have seen Feel Good, you will definitely love this special. Mae hits on some things people have taught her, her sexuality, and more in a charmingly witty way. Underdogs rise!
Lily Tomlin
The one, the only… Lily Tomlin herself! Miss Lily is one of the best humans, and if you have loved her for a long time as we have, seeing her standup is a must. There are several specials on Netflix where Tomlin guest stars (and Grace & Frankie, too.) Run, don’t walk!
