13 Ways Amy Schumer Makes Us Proud To Be Women

This is Amy Schumer’s year.

On her show “Inside Amy Schumer,” the comedienne has made waves in a big way with her take on comedy that’s raunchy, honest, and unapologetically feminist. From parodying pop songs and calling out ridiculous beauty standards to taking on rape culture, Schumer has used her brand of humor to both entertain and enlighten.

Schumer is as frank and outspoken outside of her hit show as she is on it — earlier this month she got attention for her candid and inspiring speech at the 2015 Glamour Women Of The Year Awards, where she accepted an honor for being a trailblazer.

“I’m not going to apologize for who I am and I’m going to love this skin I’m in,” Schumer said to a room full of applause.

In celebration of her refusal to apologize for who she is, here are 13 fearless Amy Schumer quotes that highlight the ways she makes us proud to be women.
