    [synopsis] => From dour old women to buzzkills who can't take a joke, the stereotype of the humorless feminist has repeatedly been deployed to derail and delegitimize the women's rights movement. This collection skips the tired debates that ask whether feminists can be funny, we know the answer to this already to, instead investigate contemporary expressions and functions of humor within international feminist movements and communities. This interdisciplinary volume showcases critical analyses of cultural texts and events, personal accounts of producing and encountering feminist humor, and creative interruptions that pair laughter with insight. As a whole, this work seeks to sideline caricatures of the humorless feminist by promoting a vision of a diverse movement vibrant with innovative, generous, threatening, and, ultimately, triumphant laughter.
