Comedy can be, especially in a writers room, really aggressive, kind of a very male-dominated room, and it would be hard for women. Its not a nurturing place. Its not like a lot of women are going to say, I cant wait to live that lifestyle and be in a writers room until 2 or 3 a.m. – Ellen DeGeneres

Even before I knew I was gay, I knew I didnt want to have a child. I knew I didnt want to have one. I never want to have to release it from me. Listen, I love babies. I love children. And I melt when Im around them. I also love my freedom and I love that I can sleep at night. – Ellen DeGeneres

Most comedy is based on getting a laugh at somebody elses expense. And I find that thats just a form of bullying in a major way. So I want to be an example that you can be funny and be kind, and make people laugh without hurting somebody elses feelings. – Ellen DeGeneres
