Who is funnier? Men or Women?
 
Do you prefer male humour or female?

On the whole I like male humour but I do have a penchant for Sarah Millican. And Niamh.

Men obviously, bigger brains to make better jokes.

Beso 17-03-2021 06:11 PM

Male humour, unless its gay me me me men, or Ferne Brady(shes funny)

Kate! 17-03-2021 06:16 PM

Poll coming

GoldHeart 17-03-2021 06:17 PM

Both men & women are funny with stage presence and good material.
But I've always liked Lenny Henry , Michael McIntyre ,Peter Kay etc.

Gina Yashere, Dawn French etc are funny aswell .

Smithy 17-03-2021 06:28 PM

I’d say I like more female comics than male, but the male ones I do like are generally funnier

Tony Montana 17-03-2021 06:38 PM

Men, not really close tbh.

Richard Pryor
George Carlin
Eddie Murphy
Robin Williams
Steve Martin
Chris Rock
Lee Evans
Michael McIntyre
Dave Chappelle

I find female comedians much funnier than male ones generally but I never really put it to a vs situation.

Niamh. 17-03-2021 07:02 PM

Stupid to compare really, people are individuals

Absolutely incorrect

Crimson Dynamo 17-03-2021 07:15 PM

the question isnt are there some funny women

as there are the odd one

Alf 17-03-2021 07:16 PM

Alf Garnett > Any woman

Alf 17-03-2021 07:20 PM

Most comedy from a woman is just about slagging off men and eating cake.

joeysteele 17-03-2021 07:32 PM

I've always been serious.
Many say I've no humour and I agree.

I don't see or get others humour really.
I can be told a joke, not think it funny at all.
Then hours or days later think of it then laugh a bit at it.

Kerry, ( bless her), used to like John Bishop, she got me to watch him, I did find him humerous I admit.
I guess if I found anything funny it wouldn't matter whether it was from a Make or Female though.

I don't really like standup comedy (apart from Tim Vine) so I voted male based on sitcoms I like, and people I find funny on panel shows. While both sitcoms and panelists have people I like of both genders, there are more males in both.

Harry and Paul mocking panel shows.

No need to be rude about Neem :hehe:

Alf 17-03-2021 08:15 PM

This is one of the rare female comedy geniuses.

Did stand up, wrote sketches and wrote and starred in a groundbreaking sitcom, and her interview as Mrs Merton with Debbie Magee had one of the great comedy moments of the 1990s.




Marsh. 17-03-2021 09:52 PM

Neither. It's not a gender thing. Funny and unfunny examples of both.
