"Women aren't funny" : TwoXChromosomes

I'm just so tired of the army of men who like to camp the videos of female comedians (especially when the joke relates to their experience with men) just to snarkily comment, "Is this supposed to be funny???"

Yes. It's funny. To women. Maybe not to you, but it's funny and relatable to a lot of women. 49.74% of the world population, to be precise. Men probably aren't even the target audience. But as always, if men don't think it's funny, then it isn't funny, and women who think it's funny have a bad sense of humour.

This never works the other way around though. If a woman doesn't think a misogynistic comedian is funny, it's because she doesn't have a sense of humour and "doesn't understand how jokes work". That female comedian making fun of incels though? It doesn't matter if every woman on the planet thinks she's hilarious. If it offends the delicate sensibilities of some insecure men and they don't think it's funny, then it's not funny. Their sense of humour is never the problem. If men don't laugh, it's because women are not funny. If women don't laugh, it's because women lack a sense of humour.

🤷🏻‍♀️

Women are funny, get over it.

It's MENS fault these shows that don't get watched don't get watched. Why won't they engage in something that's actually not for them, sweatie?

And on this note, I'm really tired of shows starring funny women getting canceled because men. Or alternatively just because they are based around the female / non-cis-male experience. It's a real shame, because of lot of great shows have ended this way.

And it's not like Taylor Swift (music and tours) or Barbie movie have shown that you can have massive success by producing for a female audience. Like it's almost like they still believe we don't have our own money and just sit at home cooking for man all day.

Right, no one markets anything to women. Someone should take advantage of this audience.

I'll die on the hill that the all women Ghostbusters movie was effing hilarious. If it had men playing their parts it would have gone on to sequels, but thanks to the butthole men whining it was bad, they basically erased it from existence and they made a truly shitty movie featuring the original actors and some kids.

Twitter is a shining example of how much funnier women often are, as the hands down most clever tweets I see are predominantly written by women. I've often said I should compile a collective of the best examples, but I rarely engage with the platform anymore. Maybe it's that male-centric humor is often situational and not always overly, uhm, cerebral... to each their own, of course. Like, physical comedy does absolutely nothing for me. But an insightful, well-worded tweet? That's gold.

Right? Comedy shouldn't be funny, it should make you think.

Fake laughing to own moids, and, not die?

Mwn think they're funny cos we fake laugh to shut them up

or so that we don't die

You WILL laugh at my jokes
