3. Amy Schumer This comedienne took on slut-shaming in a whole new way by devoting an entire show to the subject, starring in Comedy Central’s Inside Amy Schumer. It was a feminist’s take on how the media critiques what women are wearing and the constant pressure to look like a million dollars. It even mocked how some women try and look better than other women. Once, Schumer posed for a photo with a 17-year-old boy who later posted it on Twitter with the caption, “Spent the night with @amyschumer. Certainly not the first guy to write that.” Not noting the irony that her show is called Inside Amy Schumer, the actress fired back, “I get it. Cause I’m a whore? Glad I took a photo with you. Hi to your dad.”
