"If Joy Behar or Sherri Shepherd was a dude, they’d be off TV."

As supporting evidence for this statement i would like to point out that i didn't even know Joy Behar was trying to be funny.

As for the whole argument about women and funniness, the answer is that they are not as funny as men, or even as often as men. Damned if i know why, but that's how it is.

First of all, Adam clearly has a problem with affirmative action and the sexual harassment culture that feminists have created, not women specifically.

Second, I think he has a point about women not being as funny as men, but that he didn't phrase it correctly. It's not exactly that women are inherently less funny than men, but that they are clearly conditioned to be be that way. The reasons for this is because 1. they don't have to, and 2. because most comedy revolves around complaining, and people are much less likely to appreciate nagging from women (since women are primary caretakers of children, which feminists advocated for, not because of patriarchy).

I find it weird that we are taking sexism advice from Adam Carolla a man who is arguably the most sexist comic around.
