can you all name me any funny girls? comedians, actresses...

i honestly believe that, in my opinion, not a single funny girl exists in the universe- ha. im not tring to be sexist but i discussed this theory with some guys and the funniest humor to a guy is racist/sexist/crass/rude humor. when a guy does it - hilarious. when a girl does it - awkward and unfunny.

margaret cho = not funny.

and im not talking about "cute funny" or laughing at a girl because shes hot and u want to seem interested in her. a good example of a funny cute girl because shes just a goofy character is Erin from the office. that girl can make me laugh because shes so awkwardly funny.

so what do you guys think because im fresh outa girl humor luck.

well obviously a girls opinion on this is going to differ. i dont know if guys will agree with your list. that list = not funny.

i dont think i crack a smile when a woman comedian does stand-up.

chris rock, jamie foxx, etc. make me laugh.

Sorry, I noticed this too. And I'm a girl. And it's not just with comedians either, it's in school for example. What a male classmate says that's funny, people would not laugh if a girl said the same thing.

I LOVE stand up comedy, but I haven't found one female comedian that I find very funny. Maybe crack a smile. Not much more than that though.

Well it's kind of vice versa for us. Some girls don't find guy humor funny at all, just immature. I think it's better put this way guys make guys laugh, girls make girls laugh. But of course there are exceptions too, but I'm talking about rude/sexual humor in general.

Truee i see this in general as well-not just tv and celebrities. If I was in a single-gender classroom, I'll be bored as heck without guys cracking up
the random-est jokes.
Girls--most are awkward but that doesn't mean girls can't be funny.

true, I get what you're going at. I mean there are a lot of things guys can do and it's considered funny but a girl can't do it. It's not funny when a girl does it it's just gross or bad or something

but there are some girls that are funny like Tyra banks is funny.

Mostly it's because a girl has to be aware of how she looks and all that so doing some things don't look pretty so they don't do it so then they're not funny but guys don't really care....not that much at least

men are naturally more charismatic after several millenia of being given more freedom to express themselves. you wouldn't really consciously think it, but more often than not the male making a joke is sorta more inherently socially acceptable so that people would laugh, rather than make an awkward point out of it if it was a girl who'd said it.

and not to be sexist or anything since i'm a girl myself, but guys in general just have way better delivery (:

In my country, a lot of well-known comedians are women.
Not ellen degeneres scripted knock-knock funny, but laugh out loud, not afraid to make fun of themselves, definitely NOt slapstick funny.
I aslo went to an all girls high school, and people there are crazy. Since we're all girls, people didn't care how they look, what they say and how they act, hence everyone is just carefee and fun.
But I agree, in hollywood guys are funnier.
I think it depends on what kind of joke it is though. Some guys are too green, which is not funny at all.

That is actually sexist xD, just cause you don't see them, doesn't mean there aren't funny girls in the world at all.

this topic is totally unnecessary..
at the very least, move this to general discussion instead.

well im glad some of u ladies agree... but its ok, ive got nothing but love for ya.
i like the one theory that its because guys have been socially more free to express themselves and they just have a lot better delivery

ill tell u what though, a girl may not make a guy laugh as much as a guy could but a girl can make a guys heart melt and feel all sappy...
girls have that power over us.

Despite the fact that I'm a girl, I have to agree with you on this. Male comedians have all kinds of things to talk about but female comedians tend to have a very limited amount of subjects. Body image, men, other women are probably it. When a female comedian talks about politics, sex, or make dirty/racist/rude jokes, I'm not sure why, but it's just not funny. But when Chris Rock does it, I fall off my chair laughing. I think it's just the ancient mentality that girls are supposed to be inconspicuous. tongue.gif

But communitychannel on youtube is really funny wink.gif

i admits
iz obsessed with LAWLCATS

when you see a guy cracking up a joke or whatever
it's freakin' funny
but when a girl does it ..
it's not.
