I just realized there are no funny female stand up comedians

[RachlNicholsazz]

It's one of those things where you are going about your day and a fact smacks you in the face that's hard to believe. I couldn't think of one single funny female stand up comedian. So I looked female stand ups and I recognized only a couple of names, but they definitely aren't good, I don't know successful they are at selling out shows by themselves but I doubt people are waiting to pay good money to listen to them.

When is the last time there's been a good stand up female comedian? The 90s? 80s? 70s? It sounds like a sexist topic but please prove me wrong. Where are they?

Men relate to men, women relate to women but it does seem to be a male dominated profession. You'd probably only find a handful of women in a top-50 list.

Probably for multiple reasons, and yeah maybe genetics is one of those reasons.

I do think that stand up of all kinds has been downhill since the 90s. Maybe we are running out of jokes.

Even with the men there’s only like one or two good stand up comedians out of all of them.

lol, stand-up isnt about "jokes". its about societal phenomenons, trends, commentary..

cant run out of it.

anyway, humor is something that men are more gifted with than women.

I believe that over time and with everyone on the internet in contention of humor, that it is more difficult today for comedians to break new boundaries and be inventive. What I am seeing a lot of from comedians today is simple toilet humor which is no longer that funny. We've been there and done that.

Comedy in cinema has the same issue. We don't see many classically hilarious films like Dumb and Dumber, Office Space, American Pie, Big Lebowski, etc.

There have been a few funny movies made recently but the majority of it feels regurgitated and forgettable.

People commenting on and joking about society is over saturated like a mofo. People need to stfu. It would be nice to see a silent more physical mime style of comedy come back.

You are the only person I've heard that likes mimes.

This is an exciting era for women. Women are demolishing records in all sorts of sports, such as swimming, track and field, and even weight lifting.

Even just last year a woman demolished the female record for most wins in a row and total winnings in Jeopardy.

Eventually there will be a female comedian that can compete with men and that will be light years ahead of any female comedian that ever lived. That includes Lucille Ball, Wanda Sykes, and Sarah Silverman. And also that comedienne who bragged about God loving her the best. And also Blade's favorite comedian that Vaccinated and Horny comedian.

You don’t have to think they are funny, that’s comedy, it’s subjective

Yes it is. Otherwise you're just preaching.

Of course it's about jokes. It's about representing the thi gs you listed in a funny way. It's about satire.

Jesters been around for centuries. Comedians basically took their role and they're not out of material. The problem is that society today is too fixated on "you can't say that". In comedy you can. That's is its whole purpose. You're pro x-rights? Good, but if someone .akes a joke about it don't get mad. People get mad to easily these days.

If that's the best shit from the best women stand ups that you could find, then they are in worse a state than even I thought
