One thing that I've seen commented on comedy videos that made me step back and think, are there no funny female comedians? I've never seen one that made me laugh out loud.

You are either a) about 9 years old b) sexist as fuck c) a sheep that believes in the shit people say on here or d) you've seen 1 female comic and judged them all from there.

Plenty of funny female comics it's just that most of them are pig ugly and don't get much tv time.

There's some good comedy actresses, but not proper comedians.

Women can't understand such an abstract concept as comedy. Is not something you could buy or wear you know

Any achievements by women were all the cause of men.

The feminist movement was a creation by men to keep women dour and miserable while they work their whole lives in meaningless jobs as wage slaves and give sex freely to men and call it progress.

I've seen plenty of female comedians. There are some good female comedic actresses, but I've never seen a funny female comedian. Most of them joke about how fat they are or how much of a slut they are.

Just having a vagina isn't funny. I've never met a person who said a female was in their top 5 favorites of all time.

There are definitely witty women, I have a neighbour who is hilarious. But to be a comedian requires a certain libidic sexual desperation, which is rarer in women.

Asking if you know funny female comedians is like asking if you know any horny lesbians.

God Trainwreck was so bad. My roommate's friend sold it to me as being hilarious, and I had read several reviews praising it.

Nope. Its as if they wrote some run of the mill romantic comedy about a "wild" guy who can't settle, then just swapped genders for every character. Literally, all the men behave like women and all the women behave like men. If you're going to make a statement about the persistence of gender roles, fine, but why make it so blunt? It didn't seem real.

Seriously. Especially when all you have to go on is the consensus, "Trainwreck drags commitment out of all but the most rom-com-phobic filmgoers with sharp humor, relatable characters, and hilarious work from Amy Schumer," I was expecting a fun comedy from a different perspective.

What I noticed about female comedians is that most of them only have their sexuality to offer.

>I'm such a slut LMAO
or
>I can't get laid LMAO

Sometimes I really do think women only care about their social status. Sex is a big part of that of course, but another part is what they look like and what they wear.

Think I am wrong? Ask any woman what her hobbies are. You will find that the very concept of spending time on anything that doesn't directly improve their social status is foreign to them.

>what is empathy

If you've never noticed, guys like male comedians more and girls like female comedians more. Shit, could it be because people understand those who have had similar experiences in their life and are more similar to them. Most of the time, thinking that there are no funny female comedians just means that you have little experience empathizing with females.
>>
>>68888099
Its like sexist jokes
Feminist jokes arent funny at all (at least all the ones I have heard), while "kitchen" jokes or any other misogynist joke are still decent. Even women laugh about those, for fucks sake. I do know (comedy) actresses who are funny in what they do, but not a single female comedian
>>
>>68891874
she's not a stadup comic, but she's a comic. She doesn't go to a club and "do a bit" but she has a 5-10 minute segment where she makes jokes about current news, politics, etc.
Sort of like a jon stewart, jimmy kimmel if their shows were only 10 minutes long
Don't think you'd say they aren't being comedians when they're not doing standups

To be able to make a stand up act really good, you have to introspect, be able to laugh about yourself and then express the person you are, live. It comes with a certain cool, that I have never seen a woman replicate. They always come across trying too much to be funny. It's never authentic. Maybe it's because women never truly hit rock bottom. The self loathing in Jim Jeffries is palpable, Amy Schumer clearly plays a role. Of course, if you can't even joke about funny stuff, the true heights of comedy, when you take incredibly serious topics and make them funny, are off limits. We have a few top notch female comedic actors in Germany, but as soon we're going on stage, there's nobody.

ALL OF THIS SHITPOSTING......

And no-one can still post a single youtube video of a woman, doing stand up comedy, which does not refer to her vagina, "men" or simpering, "Lel look at those backward idiots its 2015+1!!!!".

I am actually genuinely curious as to whether it exists, and from the lack of evidence and the arguments from those who insist it in fact does exist, I'm beginning to doubt it.

I'm sorry but nearly all women I know don't find female comedians very funny and they do find male comics hilarious.
Trying to demonize people who don't find women funny as sexists is an act of desperation. It's just an attempt to render that opinion invalid and erase it.
Male comics in general do not do gender specific humor like Moms/periods/vaginas.

>>68892222
once again with this "we"
you're so easy to spot
anyway it basically is standup.
if you look at the video I posted it's very very loosely scripted, much less than any traditional stand up act. she basically just talks about current events and makes her own observations, which are all funny because she is just a naturally funny person.
she also does acting and probably writing, but I'm not really familiar with that, I just know about the one she does on that one show, which I think is live as well, and is very loosely scripted.
If anything, it takes more genuine funniness than stand up comedy does, since it's not a meticulously crafted sketch.

Women try too hard in stand up comedy. There a a lot of (comedy or not) actresses around the world who can be really funny playing a role, but they still cant do it that well in a stand up routine

Luciana Littizzetto

In 1993, she was part of the cast of Italian TV show Cielito Lindo, playing sketch character Sabrina. As such, she had her first catch phrase: "Minchia Sabbry!" (The Hell, Sabbry!). Subsequently, Littizzetto debuted on Radio Due's Hit Parade.

During the 1990s, she worked mainly for Mediaset, debuting on the cabaret show Zelig.

Since then, Littizzetto has created several famous characters and has entertained the Italian public with her fertile and varied television, film, theater and literary work. Up to 2014, Littizzetto authored 14 successful comic books.[6] In some of them, she notoriously refers to male and female genitals as Walter and Iolanda, respectively.[7]

In recent years, together with TV personality Fabio Fazio on his TV show Che tempo che fa, she has entertained Italian audiences on prime time with her humorous remarks about social trends. She has also shed a light onto cultural, social and political topics, notably calling for a bill in Italy to protect women against sexual harassment.

Jo Brand is good but she basically just tell the same joke over and over

where does the funny stuff start, anon? I've already wasted 4 mins of my life on this

You are wrong

>>68893067
>>68893074
I'm not that anon. I posted these as examples of how not very funny they are.

Although Jo Brand is personable and naturally a funny person, it's the same old material which doesn't do her any favors.
>>
>>68893125
No he isn't. Humour is subjective.

You are definitely autistic though not to understand that concept.

She has a funny desu? What's that?

Hoh boy, he actually believes this meme

not that anon but I see you trying the 'autistic' meme as a desperate defence again, kiddo.

jo brand has a good delivery and that's it, her material is shit like 99% of other female """"""""comedians""""""""

Where are the unfunny amerifat comedians?
>>
>>68893250
neither is pretty funny desu
what's your point?
>>
>>68893189
That's because it's a genuine trait of autism not understanding emotions and differences in people.

So it was meant in its literal form not the meme.
>>
Jo Brand and Tina Fey aside, I can't think of any funny women who write their own stuff.

That's not necessarily a bad thing though; there's no virtue in writing your own material if your stuff is shit. Body language and delivery are just as vital to comedy. Pic incredibly relevant.
>>
>>68893153
Wrong again
>>
>>68893259
I don't know any and no-one has posted any we should give a chance.
>>
>>68893289
Nah it's a shitty demonization attempt, cunto. Try harder :)

"You don't find them funny because you're incapable of empathy" is fucking bullshit and you know it. It's not like everyone is saying every male comic is funny. Many of them are shit, too.
>>
>>68893382
No it isn't but I guess this is a wasted conversation.

Also who even mentioned empathy? All I've said is that humour is totally subjective. I stick to this statement.

It's a genuine trait of an idiot to not know how the mechanics of good humour function

Before I really got into the internet, before youtube was a thing, I'd watch a load of stand up comedy on television.
i quickly found out that most blacks and all women weren't funny. there was a couple funny mexican (latin? spanish?) guys and maybe one funny asian guy. I wasn't against them, and they have their place for their audience, but everybody likes white guy comics because they don't have a gimmick like over bearing parents, guys hitting on them, whatever.
>>
>>68893483
I'm one of the one who agrees. She's not funny to me but obviously she is to someone or we wouldn't know her name.

Here is an English lesson for you.

Empathy actually means 'understanding emotions' which is what you said people were lacking, in your post.

Yes, humor is subjective but that wasn't everything you said, was it?

You actually tried to say that people who don't find these women funny have a learning disability.

How do you expect to get some internet pussy for that low effort, white knight?
>>
>>68893884
Your should try to understand and accept that different people find different things funny, and that when it comes to 'what's funny' there is no correct answer.
>>
>>68894028
There absolutely is a correct answer and that is women are not funny. Period. End of discussion.
>>
>>68893884
Listen you angry neck beard. When you se quotation marks like that it implies you are quoting something from this thread. Now seeing as someone else said all that shite about empathy that you are quoting I assumed you were getting your anons mixed up. Now obviously I now the meanings of what I've said.

Now you go back to being angry at complete strangers who couldn't give a fuck about you.
>>
>>68894073
you're a joke
>>
>>68894028
Not mentioning the other things, huh?

So, just to recap - When people are saying these other people are not funny, they are subjectively correct, in that, they don't find these people funny.

OK. And they are not lacking empathy because they have a learning disability. OK.
>>
>>68894116
Now you when?
>>
>>68894073
Yeah, this, and the people who defend these shallow, wannabe comedian chicks always say dumb shit like "uhh, excuse me, I've got a GREAT sense of humor. I'm twisted." and will unironically say "if you can't handle me at my worst then you don't deserve me at my best"
>>
>>68894158
Don't ever fucking reply to me again.
>>
>>68894116
ahh now trying the 'that wasn't me it was someone else' tactic?

Fuck off you little cunt.
>>
>>68894204
Jesus you are deluded.

Not that any of this matters to strangers I could easily say whatever I want to, but I confirm I am not the anon talking about empathy. I am the anon saying humour is subjective.

End of discussion angry boy.
>>
>>68894198
The first part of your recap is correct. When someone says someone is not funny they are correct as far as it pertains to their own self.
Not sure about the learning disability bit, that does not make much sense.
>>
There have been a few I remember being very fucking funny in the old comedy central presents from the mid 2000s but they faded into obscurity soon after.

Shame because I cant remember their names but I remember getting a few really good laughs in. Shame that the ones that become big tend to not be able to get the same reaction from me. But I do know there are some really funny ones which gives me hope that one will pop up again and actually become really big.
>>
>>68894260
No, I'm not Jesus, but I'm often mistaken for him.
>>
>>68894298
I said that not the other anon. You are getting mixed up. There is more than one person calling you a cunt.
>>
The whole thing is women have never had to be funny in any sociological or evolutionary sense.

Until lately women never had to be funny in order to impress other people.
So yeah, there's one or two few flukes like Maria Bamford who are genuinely funny, and the general structure of comedy is very masculine, where the other "successful" female comedian emulates masculine humor.
99% of female comedians are shit propped up by people with shitty senses of humor or girl power agendas or jews in hollywood who want to make money off of dumb girl comedy movies.

Don't worry women, so long as only the hot people fucking each other more than the ugly people, women too will eventually become funny.
>>
>>68891811
>I can't get laid LMAO
doesn't that also go for a majority of male comedians?
>>
is /tv/ seriously get heated up because of a talentless walrus, for real /tv/? for real?
>>
>>68894485
Nope.
>>
Here is a question:

Internet humor. Who posts the majority of "OMG a funny cat!" pictures?
Who posts the majority of clip-art graphics with trite platitudes on them as if they are deep and meaningful?
>>
I think its that most comedians come from a dark place. The jokes at their core come from not fitting in and social rejection. The comedy is a way to cope with all the depression. Women will never know the male perspective of getting rejected most times, having no one to white knight any emotional issue, or really being alone. Any woman who marginally takes care of herself will have 5 guys talk to her and ten guys too shy to talk to her. So their comedy is "comedy" without the tragedy undertones, it will never be as good as male comedy
>>
the first episode of this season is terrible
>>
DUDE UTI LMAO

I liked Kitty Flanagan when she did bits on Good News Week
>then again it was probably more of a "wanna tap it" type deal
>>
>>68888987
You hit the nail on the head kind of anon.
Women comedians tell jokes that women find funny. So things about their relationships with people or a way to bond with other females (period/ fat jokes). Their stand up only works with other women

Women can absolutely be funny, just not in stand up. Stand up is weird and needs a sort of vulnerable masculinity to make it work.

FTFY
Surveys consistently find that women place a lot of value on a man's sense of humour, that's all the explanation you really need for this phenomenon if you ask me.
>>
>>68891948
But if this was the case wouldn't 50% of all comedians be female rather then the tiny minority they are now? Also every stand up gig I've seen the audience was fairly mixed, it wasn't like the male comedians had all-male audiences and vice versa.
>>
Went to a comedy show at a bar the other day here in LA and saw one of the writers for Fresh off the Boat do a set. She was fucking hilarious.

I think the problem is 1. Most big mainstream comedians in general, whatever gender, aren't that funny and 2. /tv/ doesn't know about the less mainstream comedians who are actually funny.
>>
