What was said
"GLAAD has me on their website as a homophobe for a joke that I told at Comic View. Dick is like Secret Deodorant. It's strong enough for a man, but it's made for a woman. And that's the punchline."
Underwood reveals she was branded a homophobe by GLAAD for a joke she believed was about civil rights that compared male anatomy to the Secret Deodorant slogan. She says the joke involved comparisons from the Middle Passage forward, and the homophobe designation has remained on their website.
