Dear hot women: Amy Schumer feels bad for you!

The 'I Feel Pretty' star recently appeared on an episode of Dax Shepard's podcast 'Armchair Expert,' and spoke frankly about why being a woman sucks. 

Starting with how women's appearances are constantly sexualized, "even when it seems crazy," Schumer said, "I feel really bad for these girls who are so hot because guys can’t handle it. You can’t have a conversation. Everything’s gonna skew sexual and you’re gonna be treated differently. And honestly, I actually feel really bad for them.”

The comedian has been a huge advocate for self-confidence, women's rights, and self-love, but even she squirms at the idea of being sexualized without her permission, adding that she wouldn’t want to be any more attractive than she is for that very reason. “That’s the truth. Not an ounce."

To really emphasize the inherited difficulties of living in a female body, Shepard and Schumer dove into the other side of the conversation: the women who don't feel attractive at all, to the point where they feel invisible. They agreed that it was a lose-lose situation. 

Schumer, however, continues to set an amazing example for women. “I would not change a f***** thing,” she repeats.

The actors went on to discuss other light-hearted issues such as women's unfailing fear of being sexually assaulted, and how it seems as though it's no longer a question of if it will happen, but rather when. 

If you want to see an actual light-hearted take on the issue of women's body image, watch her film 'I Feel Pretty' which tells a story of an insecure woman who suffers an injury and suddenly believes she's the most beautiful person in the world.
