female comdians

Women are prohibited from being funny. It's just an inherent flaw that they all must deal with.

Women never have been funny, and never will be funny.

Totally agree with ya. I know of one male comedian that would agree with me 100% and thats Andrew Dice Clay. In one of his standups he criticized all female comedians, saying they just wasting their time. I couldnt agree more - they just got better things to do!
I never said I hated women. I love a womans kindness, their beauty, their intuition, their caring nature - but defnitely not their sense of humor. So all their comedians should stop trying to be funny!

wtf joo talkin' bowt? Women ain't funny?

Mrs Doubtfire had me roflmaoirl!

Alright, let's make a deal. I will stroke your ego and agree with you that women have an "inherent flaw" that prevents us from being funny if you agree that men like you are nothing but egotistical meatheads.

Like someone said earlier in the thread, this is all subjective. You are posting your opinion just as I am. Stop acting as if what you are saying is 100% fact.

Your answere to what I think about my ego can be found here...

Meathead, not so much. I may have more then the average amount of fast twitch muscle fibers in me, but I don't know any meatheads that go to Wharton.

There is nothing subjective about this. Women are not funny. That is a fact. It is as true and certain as death and taxes.

The only thing funny about female comedians is that they think they are funny. Thus, you can laugh at them...and even then, it's more of a sad, pathetic humor.

I think the issue here is that men do not get our jokes.

Well at least you admit being an egomaniac.

You know, the whole theme of this website is "Deny Ignorance" and that has to be the most ignorant statement I have seen. The fact that there are different opinions voiced on the subject in this thread, and neither opinion can be proven right or wrong because different people find different things funny, makes this all subjective.

So go ahead and continue being a comedic mysoginist, and i will continue to laugh at you in the same manner that you laugh at female comedians.

Example "A" of why women are not funny and can not be comedians...

The "issue" is that women are telling jokes, but they aren't funny.

How is that an example? I wasn't trying to be funny when i said that, I was posting an observation.

Or is it because I don't find your "fact finding" humorous?

No, it's because women have no sense of humor, as this thread clearly demonstrates.

As I have said earlier in this thread, I am not taking this too seriously. It is merely a discussion. Of course I know in your mind this friendly debate wouldn't be complete without a raging fem-nazi and you're just imagining me getting all huffy puffy over the issue. LOL!

Oh, the irony!! Please stop!!! Please stop!!!!

Lily Tomlin comes to mind as a funny comedian. Minnie Pearl was funny, as was Gracie Allen.

The thread originator might be too young to remember comedy before vulgarity and profanity were de rigeur. Vulgarity and profanity are often substituted for humor and such is even less appealing from women. Perhaps that's what's at issue here.

The only funny female comedian is Ellen, but she isn't funny Haha she is funny the other way.

Come on men, female comedians have been keeping us down far to long!

Oh sure we get one in every now and then, like Lenny Bruce, George Carlin, Jerry Seinfeld, Drew Carey, Lewis Black, Denis Leary, Eddie Murphy, Chris Rock, Red Fox, Steve Smith, Jon Stewart, Leslie Neilson, Adam Sandler, Jim Carey, Carlos Menica, Cheech and Chong, Andrew Dice Clay, Donny Baker, Tim Wilson, Weird Al, George Lopez, Kevin Pollack, Robin Williams, Stephen Lynch, Bernie Mac, Jeff Foxworthy, ROn White, Bill Engvail, Larry the Cable Guy, Kevin Smith, Trey Parker, Matt Stone, and Tim Allen, but that isn't enough!

BTW: I am joking, being sarcastic, why I listed as many male comedians I could think of at the time.

Edit, more male comedians...

I concur. Vulgarity seems to be the standard to meet for comedy these days. It is truly pathetic.

also this has been burning in my mind for quite some time and finally i feel the need to get it off my chest.



When I first saw this thread I read the title was female condems. Thats the only reason I even clicked it. Ad now the world knows. lawl funny how intarnet works dyslexia 4tehwinz

Grady,

I'm somewhat surprised you didn't mention Phyllis Diller, well respected in her day.

You make a good point as to the acceptance of vulgarity from female comedians, for that matter male as well. While the trend seems to be based on an injection of such with every third or fourth word out of their mouth, it loses even more comedic appeal coming from the ladies.

I can't say I have truly been humored, by actual comedy, in quite sometime. In my opinion, there's more comedic value in some of the old black and white slapsticks than most on stage performances today. Fortunately, they're available on cable and DVD when true abdominal exercise is required.

Good point.

I like vulgarity in female comedy when it's done in moderation. I agree that it can be way overdone from both men and women. However it seems the male comedians get applauded when they are overly vulgar, and I personally don't think its funny when either gender overdoes it.
