no, a fucking idiot would assume that someone's gender can affect how funny they are

I make no assumptions; I have yet to see a funny female comic

The seat of all comedic thinking is obviously the nutsack.
Whereas in women, all the funny just falls out the growler.

To expand:
Comedy is a resource. It is heavier than air. It falls from space and lands on people, filtering down through their bodies. In men, the ballbag acts like a funny pouch, or bib. It collects the comedy and allows the man to utilise it.

Women just drop it all out their snatch, like a period.

which is why they do so many period jokes

This is absolutely perfect!

Well I've yet to encounter a genuinely funny woman, so perhaps it's just a massive coincidence?
But presumably what you're also saying is that people, let's call them 'women', who say that "men can't multi-task" are also fucking idiots?

i would think it's safe to say that men "don't want to" multi-task
my dad is perfectly capable of listening to me, cleaning the lounge AND watching the football/golf. he just chooses not to.

It does.

more likely it is that the men listening to it aren't capable of understanding it
if the woman presenting said comedy doesn't look a certain way, because after all, that's all that really matters.

See below.
SCIENCE tells us you are wrong.

Actually, she might not be.
I remember seeing an Australian female comic and she actually was pretty funny. She was also pretty hot. I think she's got it right, you have to be hot to be a funny woman. Once again hotness proves itself the most important attribute in a woman.

It's because of the space comedy nutsack collector, I've already explained this.

( Kroney, Mon 19 May 2014, 12:30, Reply)

this needed a study???
"Our findings suggest that men's view that men are funnier could be a result of their actually finding the humor they produce funnier"

there isn't a dude on the planet who doesn't find himself hilARious, even though society seldom agrees with him.

that's not science
if miranda and jo brand were a pair of six 6 blonde 17 year old twins with a predilection for threesomes with fat internet geeks, you'd all think they were HILARIOUS.

Sorry I got bored towards the end of that sentence.
Something about getting the kettle on?

miranda is a good example
oh look, she isn't funny, because she's a woman. but........ nearly all the scripts are WRITTEN BY MEN. 80% of the writers for that show are men.

www.comedy.co.uk/guide/tv/miranda/details/

it's nothing more than male stereotyping. oh it's a woman, i can't laugh at that.
( rachelswipe with a fork, Mon 19 May 2014, 12:33, Reply)

well, that and the fact that the miranda show isn't actually that funny

( rachelswipe with a fork, Mon 19 May 2014, 12:35, Reply)

the show actually that
( Peej, Mon 19 May 2014, 12:38, Reply)

this may or may not be true
i kind of agree with you. lots of people don't. but it's not because she's a woman, as her writing team clearly shows.
( rachelswipe with a fork, Mon 19 May 2014, 12:40, Reply)

I'm not denying there are unfunny men.
I'm one of them.

But in general men are combative about comedy, and so up the stakes whenever someone else is funny, and this leads to an escalation of comedy. Women are more likely to laugh at the jokes, but are less combative, and so the level remains low.
( Je suis un vagabond is an unfunny, up your own arse middle class knob, Mon 19 May 2014, 12:47, Reply)

men just assume, it's a woman, she won't be funny
the dude on this page have just proven exactly that!
