@lain like Sanek mentioned his date laughing at his jokes: IRL it's weird if women joke or are funny. especially if funnier than guys present. like kson being pushed to side in corporate for being funny woman.
I'd never joke in presence of dude IRL to not be weird.

@kaia girls can do it if they have tomboy energy but many are really not that good at it so it's cringe

@lain the cringest thing in the universe are haha funny vagina comedians.
@kaia i still don't fully understand why that genre has some success. "i'm a woman but i'm disgusting" is a very strange approach.
@Will2Power @lain @kaia khazar milkers, hannukkah juicies, dradle spinner badonkadonks, breasts so nice they'll have you wailing at the wall
Jewish sidewinder tits!

Self-depreciation rules supreme even among male comedians — but they have found other ways. I've grown tired of Amy Schumer's self-deprecation jokes, but otherwise — she's a great comedian, same goes for the whole female cast of Mr.Show.
I think female comedy might have success — as long as they are given stage. I know a few girls myself who make jokes a lot in the environment they are comfortable with, but otherwise they don't — they hold back, they do not think it would be appropriate.
This stereotype is something that should have never existed, if women fail at being funny — so be it, but it's not like they shoudn't try.
