Comedy creator Ilana Glazer recently opened up about their evolving understanding of gender. In a recent interview, Glazer said their pregnancy experience shed light on both their masculine and feminine sides. This realization has prompted Glazer to use they/she pronouns and feel more authentic in how they present themselves.

Glazer co-created and starred in the Comedy Central series “Broad City” from 2014 to 2019. In the interview, Glazer reflected on how viewers saw feminist themes in the show, which surprised them. Glazer said they “hadn’t even thought about it like that” when learning it was viewed as feminist.

An episode from 2016 featured a cameo from then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton during the heated race against Donald Trump. Glazer acknowledged mixed reactions but wanted Clinton to win. While not friends with Clinton, Glazer said she sits “somewhere in the middle” of liking and disliking her as a person.

Comedy is central to Glazer’s work.
