I'll agree, I'm not saying women arent capable, and there arent funny women out there, but there are just more funny men IMO

Funny women - and I mean TRULY funny women - are very rare. I don't know why that is. But it is.

Men by far, no offense to any female crappers out there (how you doin?) but that's just a fact.

Not meaning to sound Sexist but all Women ever joke about is either Tampons or Men
Yes we know we leave the Toilet seat up, Yes we know our idea of Work is lifting our feet up when the Hoover comes buy.. SHUT UP.
One of the very few Women who is just Naturally funny is Dawn French.

The other one that comes to mind is Mo Gaffney, who I've always liked.

People take shit way too seriously nowadays, men AND women.

That's true.
I do think there tends to be more funny men though, because boys are more encouraged to be witty and funny.

My other half is a hilarious, and I mean hilarious person. But men are just funnier in general. I've seen female comedians and they fall flat. Jokes about periods aren't funny.

See a female standup comic then see a male one The female one just seems to consist of talking about their period. I forgot when periods were funny :\ Not meaning to sound Sexist but all Women ever joke about is either Tampons or Men Yes we know we leave the Toilet seat up, Yes we know our idea of Work is lifting our feet up when the Hoover comes buy.. SHUT UP. One of the very few Women who is just Naturally funny is Dawn French. Sarah Silverman is funny though. As for regular, everyday women? I don't meet many funny ones.

Men.. you ever see a woman get a laugh outta people by doing a fart joke ? I don't think so ! for whatever reason, it's funny when men discuss BM's, erections, missing the toilet .. when women discuss their bathroom habits.. tampons, PMS, bleeding like a slaughtered pig.. it's just not funny.

I don't know what a gendar is but I do know what a gender is. I've about had it with the blatant lack of common sense when it comes to spelling. Is everybody here from Louisiana or something? And I'm from Louisiana! Am I the only person who can read, write, and spell correctly in this place? I'm pissed now!

The laughter in the women comedian video sounded forced.

I just think that too many women choose to take the easy way out in comedy and just do period or sex humor ad nauseum to the point where it's no longer funny. When I went to go see Dave Attell last year, Chelsea Handler opened for him. I can sum her whole routine up in two sentences: "I'm a drunk whore who sleeps with anyone. Isn't that funny?"
The few women that do try to do something different are really funny i.e. Ellen and some of the other names mentioned.
I also think part of the problem is the ratio to men & women comics. I think that there the same percentage of male comics who rely on the sex, member & poop jokes, but they get weeded out faster since there are more good male comics . With females, there's just not a lot of them so even the bad ones get lots of airtime.
