“Being an Asian person on SNL,' when people are like, 'Why did it take so long?' …” — Bowen Yang

After high school, I really learned to love myself. I finally stopped getting bullied by straight people. Then, I pretty much immediately started getting tormented by gay people for my taste in music.

I was fully burnt out - and in some ways I think that was good, because I was just fully numb.

I think there is gay comedy, because I think most gay comics are very very very in touch with that identity.

Margaret Cho is definitely one of the people, like just watching or hearing her stand up back in the days when stand-up albums were pretty prolific. Seeing her in Carnegie Hall was pretty revolutionary for me to be like, 'Oh, this Asian person talking about her sexuality.'
