Can Women Be Funny?

BTown · 03-14-2011, 12:21 AM

I think what makes people funny is their personality they have established. Kind of like in Will Ferrel movies where he is usually portraying some obvious idiot, the reason the things he does are funny is because he doesn't know of the consequences or no any better. I think anyone can be a funny person given they have a unique or even laughable personality.

I guess the person I am describing kind of sound slike one who may not be respected but that is not what I'm getting at. I guess a better explaination is anyone can be funny given a suitable personality..

Women can be funny, but usually just to other women. I don't think that men are their target audience anyhow. The content is just hard to relate to. Guys don't think it's funny if you started your period in an akward location, or if you went out of the house with lipstick on your teeth and everyone stared at you. We just can't relate. I'm not trying to be sexist, that's just how it comes across to me.

It's just like women's MMA and boxing. I can't watch. I can't stand to see two women getting beat up. I just want to run into the ring and save them. I know that may seem sexist or something, but I was always raised to respect and protect women.

And how I don't like to think about women taking a poop or farting. I know that they do it, but I prefer to think of my women as these divine, perfect creatures. I know, I'm in a dream world. But I just love women.

I'm not nitpicking but I wouldn't tell my friends any of those and expect to create laughter, it would be more of an "omg, that would be ****in embarrassing" reaction. I have quite a sick sense of humour so I usually find peoples misfortune funny. As bad as it sounds, it's true. My best friend is as sick too, but he's a guy.

lawl. this entire post is hilarious well more so the last part than anything else

sounds like you put the pussy up on a pedestal. I don't mind women farting or pooping around me because I know they are human and they HAVE to do that stuff. they are basically just like me but with tits and a pussy oh and this weird way of thinking that I'll never understand or try to.

I love to watch women's MMA. I like to see females throw down, especially if they are good at it.

you are right with the first one but I was watching the Whitney Cummings comedy special I have saved on my DVR and maaan I love her to death. I feel like everything she says is true to a degree and I'm consistently laughing throughout the whole hour.

there was only one girl's comedy that appealed to me and that was this English girl called Beth - all her jokes were toilet humour, riddled with knob cheese, gash juice whatnots

I'm funny, but I think it's because I relate everything to sex. That and I do stupid things. I know making parents laugh doesn't count but I swear I have them in stitches with my impersonations/mimicking of people and singing Disney theme songs.

I think it's because you are funny looking that is what makes people laugh not really the content that you are working with.
