lol you are stupid

Thankfully your opinion is only your opinion. :/ If I meet mostly men that I think are a waste of time. Are all men a waste of time. No just mine. So no women just aren't funny to you. And dude you have some issues.

Also, what a biased view. What if men aren't the funny ones and women are?

you are just saying that men can make women laugh most of the time is because it is easy to make them laugh...i am a girl and i admit that i laugh at almost anything...but i dont know if i am funny... 😮 😐

Oh hell what the fuck did I do?
Now that I've sobered up and my hangover is starting to clear this is probably the most retarded thread I've seen in a while.
And what was I thinking with those comments next to the choices. F***!! My own entertainment?
Go ahead and do whatever you want with this thread, I'm gonna go crawl in a corner and hide for a while.

I don't think being funny has anything to do with one's gender.

And preference on what's "funny" is not universal.

Your overuse of periods severely irks me.

And this isn't simply me being a grammar Nazi. I have to stop at every period, and now I feel like I'm reading a telegraph.

Agreed.

You can't really classify these things as one gender being better than the other.

You say there are better male comedians than female, well that's probably because there are more male comedians than females in general. It's harder for the females to break into such a male dominated job so to speak. That's pretty much the issue in most jobs these days.

But the problem is that it's easier for a man to make a woman
laugh than vice versa.

When will these boys realize that a lot of women pretend to laugh at a man's joke, even when it's not funny?

I know what the difference between an uncontollable burst
in public and a sneer is.

You'd be amazed at how well girls can fake it 😐

Humour is too varied and personal a thing to be defined by gender

Quote from The Guy

After I came across these two bits from Christopher Hitchens, I began to wonder about this age old question.
Are women really funny?

Hmm i think everyone (males or females) should have a look at the article before giving any judgment (or starting a flame war)

If you don't take the tittle all literally, or if you ever wonder why there is the word "provocation" above it, the main idea in Hitchens' analysis is not that biased.

Quote from The Guy

That is more for my own entertainment.
I just felt like making a poll which insults you for whatever choice you make.

Yeah, it pissed off most of the people that are aimed at as you'd expect. And the result of this psychological experiment, you have just observed how females would react, lol

Quote from The Guy

BTW, has anyone of you even clicked the links I put in my opening post?

I doubt that.

Quote from deathbypenguin

Quote from The Guy

I feel that real humour is universal. If something is funny, it's funny. You may enjoy certain types of humour more than others, but funny is still funny.

Some people enjoy certain types of humor not at all.

Which mean it s not the "real humor" he is talking about

Quote from deathbypenguin

In your opinion, what is the standard for basing humor quality? Well, if you ever read the article, you shouldn't have asked that question. If you don't mind, i will give you a hint : the humor response system is of the same structure for all humans (although some brain regions were activated more in women) which mean, the standard exists theoretically.

Go ahead and do whatever you want with this thread, I'm gonna go crawl in a corner and hide for a while. you really weren't aware of what you did. Well, then that is really bad -_- anyway it's gonna be locked soon, or not.

Quote from Christopher Hitchens

If I am correct about this, which I am, then the explanation for the superior funniness of men is much the same as for the inferior funniness of women. Lol this guy is the real thing.

Well I was to a point. I'll explain how I got the "brilliant" idea to make this thread.
After finishing an experiment in school I went for drinks with my work group since I just quit the school and this was the last time I would work with them.
After a few drinks I brought up the topic of women not being funny and the article by Hitchens.
Of course we had a lots of fun with it and that's where I got those comments by the choice, I think.
When I got home by 11:30 (they still needed to go to class the next morning) I got the brilliant Idea to make this thread.
Now I think that what I did was pretty embarrasing, though I do stand by that opinion. I just think I could have worded it better and a bit more elegant, so to say. And those comments by the choices is not something I would have done if I was trying to provoke a real discussion.

On a note about universal funniness, I got Plato on my side for that.

shoujo readers, which is a
great achievement in all aspects.

Wanna know why most women aren't funny, because there's nothing funny or anecdotal about doing housework, heh. (Waits for the slap.....)

Okay, before this thread degenerates even more, I'm going to lock this thread. I see no point in letting it live any longer.

(Should I petition to make the other mods use this too? haha~)

No Doc.
Unlike you, the rest of us men don't wish to be sexy females.
