Jo Brand Men Quotations

Some men are deeply likable but have attitudes I don't like. Does that mean I should completely dismiss them? It's like saying: if someone votes Tory can you like them? And, yes, I can. I have friends who vote Tory, and I'm appalled, but that's not to say they're not great people in so many other ways. We have a tendency to oversimplify things.

I've always liked to think I could do anything I wished as well as - if not better than - a man. But I wasn't very good at rally driving.

My dad's a very sensitive man, but as the archetypal rebellious teenager, I didn't realise that.

You look across the board at comedy quiz shows, and they are mainly hosted by men.

I find it difficult to judge myself, but people say that I have become a bit more socially acceptable over the years in terms of my material; which apparently at the beginning - though I never really intended it to be - was man hating and now is just a bit more cuddly.

I still get blokes who say, 'Oh you hate men, don't you?' And I say, 'No, I just hate you.' I really love doing that, just to see the look on their faces.

My mum always felt that women deserved as much as men, and should have as much power, so I suppose I opted to go into a very male-dominated arena to try and prove that.

Wild men are so enormously attractive.

I like men. They are hugely entertaining, but they have a lot of shortcomings and you just have to bear those in mind.

Men are fantastic - as a concept.

I've never, ever had people being aggressive to me in public or abusing me, and actually quite a lot of men do say to me, 'You're quite good' - though they can't bear to go, 'You're great.'
