Mindy Kaling addresses the question of whether women are funny in her book "Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?" She expresses a reluctance to engage in this discussion, as she views it as an invalid topic. Kaling believes that taking part in this debate would suggest that it is a question worth considering, which it is not.
By sidestepping the conversation, Kaling emphasizes that such stereotypes should not be legitimized or accepted. Instead, she reinforces the notion that the idea of women lacking humor is outdated and unworthy of serious discussion.
