Lacking: Humor

[Big Poppa]

Anyone notice that girls are just generally not funny?

I mean like making you laugh at loud, doubled over with exhaustion from your chest heaving so hard? You know what I mean, when your cruising with your buddies, and someone says something hella funny about whats happening and the whole groups bust up in fvcking chuckles.

However, when you go on a date, you're providing all the humor, all the comic relief while when she tries to say something chris rock style, you just smirk or laugh in a forced kind of way. Maybe it's just my experience from dating girls. But to me, women in general have no humor.

They have a "sense" of humor, most know when a joke's funny. But when it comes cracking one that makes the whole group or you let joyous symphonies of mirth, they are found wanting.

Another reason not to put em on a pedestal.

I agree. There seems to be a correlation between chicks' attractiveness and their humour and personality; that is, the more attractive they are, the less they have these. I suppose it's a no-brainer that these hotties hadn't need to work on their personalities much, since much is handed to them based solely on their looks.

Of course, this is just a generalisation; there are always exceptions (although not many, mind you ).

 

[Daruff12]

I know women that can make me laugh like that. But they are friends, so I guess they just need to be more comfortable with you.

 

[zekko]

My ex-wife was pretty funny, she used to make me laugh a lot. So there are definitely exceptions, but I agree that generally guys tend to be funnier than girls. Not sure why. Maybe that's one reason females value humor so much in a man. I hadn't really thought about being funny as being a mostly male trait, but maybe it is.

 

[mikeyb]

I hadn't thought of that up until now. Maybe it has to do with women being in general more insecure?

 

[Da Realist]

Women worry more and when you're worried, you're not thinking about laughing.

I think that's how it is anyways... Men are supposed to be funny and make everyone laugh, it's a status thing.

The boss tells a joke, and everyone laughs except for one person. The boss asks: Why didn't you laugh? "I don't work here!"

High status people make others laugh, it's realted to dominance or something like that. Chicks actually laugh more then guys, it's genetic. Ever noticed that the high status people kind of laugh less? Laughing\smiling is submissive . If you want to make someone like you, you'll laugh more and smile more etc. That's why women want a funny guy, and that's why men prefer a girl that laughs at his jokes. If you make a girl laugh, she'll think that you are more attractive. From a mans prespective however, a girl that has a sence of humor is the one that laughs like hell at his jokes even if they aren't funny at all. We all know what that means! That's why we gotta take laughter seriously! :crackup:

I learned that from the allan and barbara pease book of definitive body languege, some interresting information there!

I've never thought of laughing as being submissive, but that's a good point. Think of Elvis surrounded by all his syncophants and entourage: "Ha ha, yeah, that's a real funny joke, Elvis!". Interesting concept.

 

[Big Poppa]

Damn, some awesome insight Groovy.

 

[Tyson420]

So true.

 

[War Against Betaism]

Yeah I've noticed this. Women are generally not funny, especially the attractive ones. They try to be funny, but they just aren't. I do have some female friends that are funny, but they're all dykes lol.

 

[Tyson420]

All my dyke friends are hilarious, but the girls I'm trying to smash generally are not.

It's why most guys just move from one to the next without a care. They just get boring.

 

[Pie in the Sky]

Yeah, in general women are not funny or that creative. I have met quite a few fatties that are funny though and the tomboy types can be funny.

 

[Voice]

A cute girl that can make me laugh is a 10 in my book. OP is right though there are very few girls that are funny. Every now and then I find a girl that is cute in their own way that can make me smile, but not very often. It's so easy to connect to a girl with a good sense of humor.

I'm tired of girls saying certain guys are boring when they have no personality themselves.

Well, lets not take this to any extremes, laughing and smiling are key parts of any social interaction and do not necessarily display dominance/submissiveness.

-"Hey guys accept me I'm not a threat!" That's basiclly it. YEah, it's a key part of social interaction! People HAVE to smile when you smile, you can't avoid it.

The moer social the interaction the more you laugh. If you're watching a film alone and with other people, you're gonna laugh more in the second case. Laughter has everything to do with bonding. I'm not gonna reply more to this thread, it's all in that book I quoted. ALL IN THAT BOOK I QUOTED.
