Chelsea Handler got in because she is "attractive," as Nancy Franklin points out in The New Yorker. If she were a dog, then the road would have been much longer.

Uncle Bill's suggestion that the genders use humor differently is right on target, it seems to me. It resonates with a lifetime of observations.
