Why are body functions so funny?

I think if you laugh about embarrassing things they become less embarrassing like when you trip and fall or lay out a huge fart in the middle of class. Porn raise the arousal level of both males and females and a comedy, and horror films also raise arousal level. Plus Porno's has such cheesy scripts it's actually funny. You think with how much money is in the porn industry they could make a good porno that would really make you think. If they added a little sophistication to porn it might be less embarrassing to own one if it got academy awards for best story line. You know

it is because we have no way to control the sounds, their number or intensity.\n\n\nthere is nothing funnier than sitting in a stall next to someone with Die-Rear !! First comes all that explosive air and then........need I say more????\n\n\nIt is just NASTY!!!!!! and we do not want to be the one laughed at!

I do not know why. Human beings can be very cruel creatures sometimes. It is not a joke it is a very serious matter. It can lead to many health problems. I used to be overweight and it was not funny when people would make remarks behind my back. It hurt a lot. just becasue they are bigger than you does not make them something other than another person.

"Laughter is the best medicine" has its roots in fact.  The endorphins released during laughter can greatly improve one's overal mental and physical state, and of course, the better one feels mentally and emotionally, the better one feels physically.  Laughter exercises the diaphram and also increases blood (and oxygen) flow to the brain and other parts of the body, and this is always good.  Laughter, contrary to many Old Wive's Tales, does NOT make you "fat and jolly." Crying is a two edged sword.  Crying is important in that it helps release the negative affects of upsets and pain and truly helps a person emotionally heal; people who can't cry are prone to both mental and health problems, and unreleased emotions (fear, pain, upset, sadness) can cause serious physical problems and disease, even cancer.  On the other hand, persistant crying can physically and emotionally drain a person (not to mention cause unsightly red, puffy eyes), causing real depression and the body's natural balance to go on tilt which can cause physical ailments.

maybe it's saying that the person laughed so hard that they lost weight, which would explain why the person didn't have an a$$ any more. Same thing with running.

Can't really explain it. Well the reason for it other than we see something funny and we laugh. I can't explain a laugh but I know laughter is a wonderful form of stress relief. It's very important to have a sense of humor and to be able to laugh and live happy. If you want a scientific background, research etc I have enclosed a few sites. Maybe this will help clear somethings up for you. I also know laughter is very contagious. I was laughing so hard earlier at my husband on the phone I had other people around me laughing just because I was laughing. I was eventually laughing so hard I forgot why I was laughing in the first place! One of the sites listed I think it's the 3rd actually says laughter is good for you and helps your blood vessels function better! Also listed is a book that might catch your interest.

Laughing is another body language way we have of communicating something that we find amusing.  It also has health benefits...Voltaire said "The art of medicine consists of keeping the patient amused while nature heals the disease."\n\nLaughter elevates moods, boosts the immune system, lowers blood pressure, protects the heart and reduces stress.  It also bonds us with our fellow humans.\n\nMany Blessings,\nLilyth

You produce a hormone in your brain that works likes a kinda drug.  Your body can get addicted to it.  Also it is just fun.

Yes, and it happens more often Think you would think. There are all types of things that happen to your body, you can cry, laugh, hyperventilate, urinate,etc. just to name a few. It is normal even though some people may think that you are crazy of the thought, it is an awesome experience, they are missing out.

because when you laugh your brain releases endorphins (a chemical in your brain) that make you feel good. same thing if you run alot, also called runners high. it just makes you feel happy, or better. which is also good if your depressed or something. just run and laugh alot. lol. :)

Because humour where people get hurt (but not badly) is still the funniest. It's visual and it's universal. Think of how your friends laugh when you fall over (or you at them) as long as they don't injure themselves.

All people have different senses of humor. Some people might be completely hysterical over one thing while others don't even find it mildly amusing. Your sense of humor is an individual thing. What you laugh at or find amusing is going to depend on how you were raised, you personality, and the people you're around.\n\nIf you are blessed to be around women that have a strong sense of humor, you're very lucky. In my opinion, women tend to take themselves too seriously and don't laugh half as much as they should. Laughter is good for the soul.

Laughter is in part generated from the diaphragm.  The diaphragm expansion and contraction would in turn exert pressure on your bladder.
