“The media decides when you’re no longer believably f**kable”: Amy Schumer tears into industry sexism

The Season 3 premiere of Comedy Central’s “Inside Amy Schumer” was full of methodically precise sketches that tackled hot button cultural issues. Perhaps most memorable of the bunch: “Last F**kable Day,” the star-studded sketch featuring Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Tina Fey and Patricia Arquette that shames the media for its perpetuation of industry sexism. While on a jog, Schumer stumbles upon the gang having a picnic in the forest and quickly learns that they’ve convened to celebrate Louis-Dreyfus’ “last fuckable day.” That is, the day the media decides you are no longer “believably fuckable.” They take Schumer — “that girl from the television who talks about her pussy all the time” — under their wing and prepare her for the cruel world of middle-aged acting as a female: Disney stars replace you in the sequel to your Oscar-winning film and you only get signed on to movies with “uplifting yet vague” titles like “Whatever it Takes” or “She Means Well.” Then, you’re pushed off to sea … so you can go home and do laundry.
