    People have no idea how difficult it is to be funny in a second language. This woman is funny.

    Funny. Her mix of two cultures works and the fact she understands and plays on western humour is great. Very creative and intelligent.

      Erin Sian Wynn How gay is just a sexual preference? You know whats hard? Being black not that's diffucult.

      Tomiwa Aina I think the joke is that men don’t care about the opinions of women but when she dated a woman she suddenly needed to have one. Idk I could be wrong.

    She's witty and hilarious, and her accent is clear enough to be charming instead of distracting. She has those "next level" kind of jokes (e.g. "...being gay is so hard...you have to have an opinion"). Good stuff.

      Nico Nunez Cameron Esposito and Reta Butcher are funny. I forgot her name, but the girl who plays Louise in Bob's Burgers is funny. A lot of women are funny, you just have to actually look for them, and not just say that there are none without looking for them

    • @johannesgh90
      @johannesgh90 7 років тому +3

      For instance Christopher Hitchens said that women can't be funny. There are some evolutionary psych explanations for why men might be, on average, more driven to try to be funny, but expanding that to a rule about all women is pretty stupid, especially for a smart man like him.
      Maria Bamford is hilarious, Whitney Cummings is quite talented... Sarah Pascoe, Andi Osho and Katherine Ryan are good ones from the UK scene.
