Check out Mina’s excerpts below. But plenty of funny women haven’t seen their careers play out that way. Mina Llona, aka radio host Mina SayWhat on Sirius XM’s The Heat and Boom 103.9, is sure that humor helped her as a Latina working in urban radio. “There’s a stigma that comes with being a woman in a male-dominated field. Sometimes, they think we’re too serious or we’re too focused,” she said. “There’s these stereotypes that come with being that kind of woman. I think that being comical or being witty kind of breaks down some of those stereotypes.” SayWhat said there are pluses to using humor as a woman in radio — using it makes you more likable and brings levity to news or commentary. Still, she’s noticed women can’t seem to use sexual humor the way men can, without risking the consequences or being oversexualized. When she’s discussing R-rated topics on her show, she’s careful about not going too far. Navigating this, she said, is about balance. And learning not to put women in boxes. “God forbid I’m smart and I’m pretty,” she quipped, “and I have a sense of humor.” Best Of Mina SayWhat
