    Yeah I'm serious. I'm not trying to annoy anyone by it though, it's just me and my mate were talking last night and it came up, I'm just wondering if its women in general or just the ones I know?

    “rotfol” - Not Knowing And Trusting Simultaneously! LOL... Don't look for funny! Look for loyalty! Sometimes when a girl/woman is not being funny, you really have to wait. Funny will inherit them if "you" are funny eventually they will be funny. It's a lot like love... If she likes the T.V show "HOUSE" Eventually I will like the TV show "HOUSE". Then we are both watching HOUSE together and she can make fun of the desperate plot, and we can laugh and giggle together.

    Maybe--just maybe!--It's YOUR sense of humor.

    Mine is a little twisted, and I don't always find funny what other people do, but I'll be laughing at stuff other people look at me crazy for. I'm way past caring what people think of me for this--but I was lucky enough to stumble across a guy that got the joke one time.

    Keep looking. Funny is in the eye of the beholder.

    This is an extremely popular question among comedians. Most successful stand up comics are men. The successful female comedians also tend to be pretty manly. I have met or seen a few girls who make me laugh out loud, but I think that men are usually funnier.

    I think it's because a manly arrogant type of personality allows the joke to be carried to full potential. Most men can naturally pull it off, but it takes a unique woman. Roseanne and Lampanelli both have this confident b*tch thing about them that makes them just hilarious. Other female comedians tend to look really nervous and rely on the joke and a cute smile to pull their weight.
