I don’t think this is hateful. It was recorded at Andrew Doyle’s comedy club.

Elaine Miller at Comedy Unleashed's Scottish Hate Crime Special

On Monday 1st April, the hate speech law came into effect in Scotland. Comedy Unleashed organised a gig in Edinburgh to draw attention to it and puncture its...

But it was very funny!

And despite the merkin (that you can see peeping out of the toolbelt in the photo above) Elaine has confirmed "No hate monsters were harmed in the prop making".

What a great set, so funny.

I adore her.

Loved that. Assigned unimportant at birth!

It's about right though isn't it!

Just realised my post above is missing words it should have said despite the merkin looking like it was cut from the hate monster Elaine has confirmed "No hate monsters were harmed in the prop making".

Brilliant 😂😂😂 thank you OP

fabricstash · 13/04/2024 23:55

😂

That's art, that is.

Philosophy, science, and deadly serious political points wrapped up in comedy.

Elaine’s great. She manages to land so much informative content and bust taboos through her humour. She is a gifted comedienne.

I love Elaine Miller - gussiegrips on twitter.

For anyone not familiar, she works in the NHS with women with sexual disfunction and incontinence issues, a 'fanny physio', and she has lots of powerful things to say about how testosterone is affecting young women directly in that region. She looks at it, literally, every day.

But what I loved about that set is that, with her clip board, she's obviously not a polished stand up comedian with years of training and experience. She's just a very funny, warm, relatable and confident woman, who can make people laugh. No way is she unimportant!

Motorina · 14/04/2024 09:27

That’s absolutely hilarious (and very pointed).

Does anyone know where I can get that tshirt??

Did you spot that she was rubbing the spot where the clitoris is in that image on her tshirt during the bit about her husband listing the EA2010 SSEs? 😄

stealtheatingtunnocks · 14/04/2024 09:58

Lots of respect for Elaine. Funny, courageous, intelligent, informed. She and jkr are doing Stirling work in Scotland 😁
Would love to have seen her elected.

ADoggyDogWorld · 14/04/2024 12:28

yy spurtles really are a thing!

CattyCow · 14/04/2024 16:35

I love her!

SidewaysOtter · 14/04/2024 17:05

Fuck me, that’s brilliant!

Pudmyboy · 14/04/2024 19:21

That was amazing, funny, incisive, and- the audience laughing uproariously at this humour is music to my ears!
Plus: loved this: I was born female so assigned unimportant at birth' hilarious, poignant and with a ring of truth, hence our need to fight! She is brilliant!

FrancescaContini · 15/04/2024 08:47

Love her acerbic wit. The “heteronormative fannies” line is brilliant 🤩

Treaclewell · 15/04/2024 12:12

Wow! Enjoyed that, though some escaped me even with subtitles.
But she's wrong about assigned unimportant at birth. It's more subtle than that. Assigned payer of taxes, provider of unpaid services, for whom services are not provided, sometimes explicitly.
