I always wondered where the whole "women aren't funny" thing came from, and then I realised that males consider peak humour to be rape jokes at the expense of women and penis jokes.

Ex narcissist’s favorite joke involved doing an impersonation of a prostitute eating a banana. (Normal). Then a second impression of a “housewife” eating a banana. (Forces his own head down onto the banana with his hand on the back of his head) 😦 He would get so mad when I wouldan’ t laugh at his rape-y misogynistic jokes.

Men will say women aren’t funny and then go watch episodes of The Office written by Mindy Kaling.

Anyone that thinks girls aren't funny has never actually listened to women talk.

Back when I was "not like other girls, I only hang out with guys" girl, I had a friend who had the same interests as me- books, we played clash of clans, liked watching cricket etc. So we were bros. One day this dude goes "my gf is coming to visit me in college. I want you to meet her. But don't judge, she's kinda boring, but very pretty hahahahaha... " Even then I felt weird about why would he be in a relationship with a girl he found boring. So she comes around, we are having food in the college cafe and me and the gf get to talking, and guess what? She has the exact same interests as me too- down to being a tomboy and hating to wax hair. So this girl had so much in common with her bf but he didn't know fuckall about it because he just wouldn't listen to her. I didn't figure it out that time but it sort of clicked when they broke up.

We became friends after that. She's still my friend today and I distanced myself from the dude after they broke up.

.....anyways the F in men stands for funny

Dunning Kruger effect, a classic.

It’s because our jokes go over their heads, they just can’t grasp it or even know they were jokes. Our humour is a lot more dry and satirical.

Remember that women are more socially complex lol. There are a lot of things we see that they don’t see or understand.

We’re “not funny” because we need to explain the joke to them, which makes all jokes unfunny.

Not helpful that feminist comedians only joke about “muh vagina” and try to be as crude as male comedians. They are just lowering themselves to speak their language.

TLDR: they are not the target audience of our humour, they are usually the target lmao! The jokes not funny if it’s about you. Women usually make jokes for other women not men lol.

Edit: Also I want to add, two women could be absolutely brutal and cutting with each other in a group setting and no one would be the wiser and think they are just having a pleasant conversation. We’re just on a different frequency honestly.

Honestly I bust a gut and nearly spit out my morning coffee every single time I come to read my daily dose of FDS and self worth positivity because y’all are some funny af women! If I can burst out laughing just by reading comments! Most of the time men have terrible grammar and spelling that I sometimes wonder if they need to go back to elementary school.

The funniest people I've ever met have been women 💁‍♀️

helppleasekk · 2020-10-07T14:54:31+00:00

Women aren't funny since when? Every woman I've ever met is a comedian. Men laugh at farts.

AnAllegedHumanBeing · 2020-10-07T14:33:36+00:00

The difference is that one of the statements is true and the other one isn’t

MagnfiqueMaleficent · 2020-10-07T16:05:41+00:00

If it’s not a poop or fart joke, it can’t be funny. And if you have to think about it... forget it. They wont do that.

finalbosskitten · 2020-10-07T17:03:04+00:00

Hmm...does anyone else get the feel that it's also a situation where guys find exactly what they see and look for? There's a lot of weird men that can't at all perceive women's agency/character at all (imagine the guy that doesn't at all perceive a woman having a job and/or doing stuff at home and childcare as "work" or "effort", and he only counts it when he himself does it) in the way he feels it's a fact.

So basically you have a ton of men having no standards or looking primarily for whether or not a woman seems cute/easy, then 5 years of dating her later he's whining about her lack of humor, not at all conceiving that this was the woman he picked...and even if she had humor, it'd be likely he doesn't even see it.

sunbathingpug · 2020-10-07T19:18:22+00:00

Girls/women are funnier than men. Men think they’re funny but if you listen closely, they’re not. They’re rude. There aren’t a lot of funny men, but there are a lot of funny women who are just too shy or quiet so we hardly ever get to know the real them.

This dude seems to make and then disprove his own statement.

Ridiculous.

My ex narc basically stole all of his misogynistic jokes from standup comedians. No jokes he ever made were original. I found it interesting that he would laugh the hardest whenever a comedian would talk about cheating and how all men do it and if they say they don't they're lying. I asked him why that was so funny to him...he of course gave me the iTs jUsT a jOkE lighten up line. So I said if a comedian was joking about being a pedophile would that be funny too? He literally just turned it around and made me feel like I was crazy because I couldn't take a joke. I told him if u think something is funny that means you agree with it to some degree. Turns out I was right. He was a cheater. Ladies, if your man thinks misogynistic humor is funny...he's showing who he really is and you better believe him.

akashyaboa · 2020-10-07T17:02:33+00:00

Ok but the first statement is clearly wrong and is only fueled by misogyny when the second one is a statistical truth.

Easymodelife · 2020-10-07T14:32:16+00:00

The smartass retorts on this sub crack me up every day, but I'm guessing they wouldn't see the funny side to a joke that is, for once, at men's expense.

icanpaywithpubes · 2020-10-07T20:04:15+00:00

All the guys I work with only joke about how gay each other are. It’s boring and repetitive. It’s like listening to a parrot, but at least parrots are cute.

eveninghope · 2020-10-07T13:48:15+00:00

SAY IT LOUDER.

Solaresa · 2020-10-07T21:39:22+00:00

In a group of men: "Hilarious" banter, rape jokes, sexist jokes, gay jokes.
In a group of women: Actual relevant social commentary and references.

This whole "women aren't funny this" has to be purely driven by the male ego, because it's not real life at all. I've never been in a group of men who have made me laugh harder than my female friend group regularly does.

Ded 🤣🤣🤣

Kate makes me laugh, I'm going to keep her.

Almost spit my coffee out! Clever clever queen material.

2020-10-08T10:03:35+00:00

Oooooof right where it hurts 🤣
