You know, those two words are the rarest combination of words that ive ever assembled in my 29 years of my life.

A few female comics or comedic actors have their moments but as far as having a long standing tradition of being funny, that just doesn’t exist. I mean Joan Rivers pretty much s~~~s all over them and she was washed up years before she finally bought the farm.

The reason Male comics are better is because most jokes are a slight exaggeration of the world as it is(or no exaggeration at all). Since most women dont have a ‘real’ outlook on the world their exaggerations dont connect with people, A man’s view does.

There is a big difference in delivery too. Most Male comics sound like they are having a rant or telling a story they could tell to their friends, most Female comics sound like they are ‘Trying’ to be funny.

And last but not least most women dont have to be funny, they have a vagina and t~~~. A lot of men develop a sense of humor as a way of attracting people, a lot of women dont need that.

Right on, I never looked at it from that angle before!

1. Stand up is quite an aggressive, confrontational art form. Women are more into groupthink and consensus, not standing up and giving your views on life at the risk of being heckled, boo’d etc.

2. A lot of women comedians base their whole act on the fact that they are female. It’s ‘agenda’ comedy, and as unfunny as a comedian basing all his jokes on being black, being short, being fat, whatever.

That said, I do think there are some good female comics, though not many. Off the top of my head I’d say the late Joan Rivers, the late Joyce Grenfell, Victoria Wood, Julie Walters, Ronni Ancona, Sharon Horgan, Julia Davis (these are all British or Irish, I don’t know many US female comics).

And I think there is something to the fact that there’s a LOT of rejection, live and immediate, from the audience. Most the female comedians I’ve seen have kind of a desperation for acceptance about them that’s a major turn-off. The funniest, I think, are the ones who don’t try so damn hard.

The only women I’ve ever seen as “funny” are those that make goofy faces and act sweet/cheerful. This is generally because if they’re distorting their face to be funny, they usually don’t take themselves too seriously.

Not taking yourself TOO seriously is a good trait in men and women. However in women, it’s the only behavior displayed that will actually make me smile, not AT them but with them.

Most of the time I watch female comedians and about 10 seconds in I reverse the sexes.. then I realize if that were a guy saying those things about women, his car would be keyed to s~~~ before he got done with the routine.

This just falls back on the, men should be men and just take it, suck it up.

Women can play victims and get offended easily and are justified when everyone rushes to their side.

Usually a funny comic is some insight into the workings of the world, on a large scale that is “off”. The artist exploits this for comedic value.

Women usually have a hard time with “big picture” which is why their jokes are usually bad… and they ramble on about their periods and man bashing.

It’s whatever. I like Chris Rock, George Carlin and Eddy Izzard personally.

Any that I’ve found funny quickly got stale. Lisa Lampanelli, Amy Schumer…they just don’t make me laugh.

Amy Schumer is a hack. A lot of male comics kiss her ass because she has some pull in the industry as far as developing TV shows. It’s pathetic. Even Nick Dipaolo seems to suck up to her.
