It's a cop out. Some people like to keep it PC.

I hope not.

I don't think Vanilla is being sexist for asking the question, being a girl herself. But I am pretty appalled by several of the statements being made, especially by CunningStunt and Crash.

Sometimes and Depends on the woman and situation are basically the same.

The reason for 'Sometimes' = it depends on the woman and situation.

And that isn't the case for men also? As in, people in general?

Yes, of course it is.

I voted 'no', just to be sexist really. I know 2 f*cking hilarious girls.

I genuinely don't think woman in the media are funny, woman stand ups are terrible. I stand by that.

I thought it would be a land slide victory for the 'yes' option..

Then this whole debate is pretty pointless now that we've reached that agreement.

I know several women in the media that are funny and charming, they don't necessarily have to be comics.

But the media isn't really an accurate account of reality now is it? I know plenty of women with a good sense of humor.

Anyone who thinks they just can't full stop are a bit thick, of course they can.

I think as a general rule, men are far funnier than women. But you get the occasional bint that is just f*cking hilarious. And women just aren't funny in the media, if that's really sexist then so be it. But sure, women can be funny. I appreciate it more when I meet a hilarious girl.

Yeah I think you're sexist.

But I'm kinda sexist too, only reversed.

You seem to hate your own sex, why is that?

You should've been born a feminist. VEGANELICA's twin sister perhaps?

I've always felt more accepted by females than males, though only as a friend and not sexually. I used to be bitter about that when sex was all I cared about (and in my bitter teen years I actually was sexist against women, I was a pretty terrible person back then) but I got over that phase. I value friendship more than I value getting laid, don't get me wrong, being a virgin still sucks, but women I can always communicate with better.

I think a combination of an absent father and the way I've been treated by my male peers throughout my lifetime has accumulated into a more negative opinion of males overall. In addition to the lack of interests I share with other males.

I wouldn't want to be put into the radical feminist category. I despise a lot of so called feminists who seem to express more shame in their gender than pride. And I'm certainly nowhere near as hardcore as Vegangelica.
