As long as somebody complains, no matter how unreasonable it is, or how few the complaints are, we have to do something to satisfy those people, or risk damaging our job or business. Martin made fun of the backlash in Funk It, by asking why so many women (or so they said) got offended by him telling them to “wash yo’ ass” and “douche”, and concluded that the main reason those protesters got offended was because they didn’t douche.

It took years for this to finally hit the net. Considered lost media for a long time!

But you see, this was 1994. At that time, those crude sexist jokes he was making about feminine hygiene were considered very shocking for television. By today's standards, those types of jokes may be something he could be capable of getting away with since boundaries have been pushed, but for this time, that kind of raunchy humor was just not acceptable for television. ~Dutch

So I saw this live as a kid and it was a moment. But the show went on.

Martin brought the provocative Def Jam energy to a white institution. That explains the ban. This was in the era of "You So Crazy", which got an NC-17 rating upon release. His material was hard-core compared to the typically light fluff of that show's history. Even though SNL has had plenty of blue comics host the show, they usually water down their act for network TV. Martin simply did a joke with some X-rated subject matter, which automatically makes it dangerous even without the curse words. That's all. A few prudes in the audience clutched their pearls at a fearless black man, and Lorne Michaels tried to make an example out of him. As we can see, Martin's star still shined and his career prevailed.

And, believe me when I say that his jokes on feminine hygiene were, even in 1994 and 2023 standards, fucking take and really diluted to the point he's used the word "damn" to empathize other vulgar words he couldn't say on NBC( i.e. fuck, shit, MFer, dick, pussy, etc.)

Is this really what SNL banned him for? I mean, Martin Lawrence was and still is very well known for this kind of material. They want adult comedians hosting, just as long as they don't do any of the material that made them so popular to begin with.

I remember this

He told the truth

Before the modern day comedy shows came, the only ones were SNL, In Living Color, and last but, not least, Def Comedy Jam. Now, SNL runs their show almost like a regular TV show, in which they have the sketches, special guest hosts, and musical guests already in place for the next season. So, before anything was shot for this specific episode, the SNL staff would have been smart to go and watch one of Martin's monologue on Def Comedy Jam to see his style of telling jokes because if they did, they wouldn't have let him be the host that night or any other night lol... He was TOO RAUNCHY for network TV, even with his own show on FOX, I'm pretty sure the network was on his ass as far as what he could and couldn't say. The best night of my life watching this 😅😂😅😂

He was BANNED for this? smh. We think ppl are soft today. He didn't even say anything wild...

Before I found this clip, I expected way worse. His story is relevant to recent events at that time, and he gives his opinion about women's hygiene. The audience seems to take it well and there are some cheers during his monologue. I enjoyed it and thought it was funny.
