Why do most comedy shows star men?

Men are easier to poke fun at! They often do stupid things on their own naturally, without a script!

Because men make 'fat' jokes.

TV shows are often about or based on real life situations. Since sex is a big part of most peoples lives it would be almost impossible to have a show without some sex in it.

A lot of them do, indeed, fit those stereotypes, but they're just being who they are- take a look at comedian Ant, who is funny but as stereotypically queer as a three dollar bill.\n\nThere is of course the famous Ellen, who is always funny, but I personally haven't heard her do any stand-up on the actual issue of homosexuality.\n\nThere once was a guy featured on Comedy Central Presents- a very big white bald guy who was entirely hilarious and highly "straight-acting", I guess you'd say, and halfway through the show revealed he was gay and joked around about how hard it was to get a date when he looked like a scary basher, and other similar stuff.  He was fantastic, and for the life of me, I can't find him again online (and believe me, I've been searching).

No of course not! Men are more likely to engage in sports that are physical and appealing to an audience. It's not about who's favored, its about who's playing it. When's the last time anyone drove by a basketball court and saw a group of women playing a game of half court.

Truth is they can't dance better than white men inherently. they learn it from the TV they watch, movies, clubs etc. \nWhite guys watch dumb shit like everybody loves raymond, action movies, and dont go to clubs other than to get drunk and fuck something

it's a soap opera for men.  just like women who like to watch days of our lifes and passions. it the excitement to see whats going to happen next

because they're immature and horny and not very smart and lazy and they wanna be like peter pan and never grow up.\nand i hope all men don't hate me for answering like this, because not ALL men are like that, but a bunch are.

I think it's because you constantly see girl on girl action in commercials, shows and videos. When you see it, it's also supposed to be okay.  Most people dont see boy on boy often and when it is visible it's usually making fun of the males involved.

Because laughter makes you feel good, so someone who makes you laugh too. We need humor in our life, not just looks, brains, money or sex.

Maybe because men don't really try to work in that area and plus everyone is so into lesbians because it's popular.  And the fact that men are just seen for their personalities not for their bodies

The media is encouraging this trend that you mentioned.  In my opinion, all of these "makeover shows" such as "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy," etc. really needs to stop.  I don't mind if gay dudes wanna fuss over their hair and primp themselves like they were getting ready for the Miss America paegent, but for the rest of us straight guys who could really care less about what mainstream media is suggesting to us today, I propose a new batch of reality TV shows for the manly men out there.  What we need to get are more manly TV shows like "Real Life: I'm a Pirate", "Gus the Lumberjack" or "Slash McNash: Vigilante Justice."

They were upset cause they wanted him to themselves. Or it could be that he didnt tell them he was leaving to be with a woman. women are like that. It was just funnier to have that in the show I guess.

Guys don't ALWAYS anything (except maybe fart a lot).  I know plenty of guys who are too serious for their own good.

That's because in general men (myself included) tend to be more visual and look for an instant attraction.  A woman is more likely to take the time to make an assessment of a man's character, his sense of humor and wit, whether he's interesting etc.  The first cut, if you will, for a man is physical attractiveness.  While for women, that criteria may be down the line a little and she is more likely to give a guy a chance who fits all her other criteria but may not be the best looking guy.

We girls often like spontaneous and funny guys because we don't like to be trapped in awkward situations like not having something to talk about. Guys who are free of shame can ask anything that pops inside their head, no matter how silly they may be and that actually turns some girls on.

No. Have you noticed how much they get around on those shows. It seems like every other week somebody's hooking up. All those shows are about are girls fighting over guys and freinds being mad at each other for no reason.
