There is a reason why there are no woman comedy clubs. It's because they are not as funny. I think women laugh and appreciate good humour more than men but they don't actually joke themselves that often. They can tell you a funny story, add to your joke or contagiously laugh about something but I have never seen a woman spontaneously and consistently come up with something original and hilarious.

There are no "woman comedy clubs" just like there are no "man comedy clubs". There are just comedy clubs. For everyone. Also, it's really cool that you've managed to talk to every single woman on the planet in order to come up with your theory.

I bet somewhere, there's at least one women only comedy club.

Amazonians: This our comedy club. Humor here funny in different way.

Amazonian: It no reinforce stereotypes.

Amazonian: It based on character and real situations, not random zaniness.

Bender: Translation: boring.

Seriously, in this day and age, what kind of rational business owner would really think that "NO WOMEN ALLOWED" would be a sustainable idea? In the age of Amy Schumer, and all the other female comics? In 2014?

Plus, take a city where comics come through a lot. You have a club that prohibits a large group of people, you can expect your club to be the butt of jokes at wherever else the comics go.

The reason this interview exists is because some comedy clubs are trying to instate a minimum quota on female comics.

There are always exceptions. There have to be hilarious women out there. I'm just saying I've never met one. Also, Bill suggested the woman comedy clubs, not me.

Are you sure you haven't come to this conclusion because women won't talk to you in the first place?

Maybe he is homosexual. Maybe he is a she. Maybe he is married to a supermodel.

Just because you own a vagina doesn't mean you hold all the cards. Guess what? Prettier girls than you are also more fun to be around.

Why? Because they aren't bitter and aggressive.

I've come to this conclusion after talking to tons of men and women.

Well, I hope for your sake and every other man you're not expressing this opinion to any of them. You'd only be perpetuating another stereotype: that men are misogynistic idiots.

I prefer being honest and speaking my mind. I've mentioned this to women before, a lot of them agree. Even my mother says she does not find any women comedians funny.
