The reason why women don't get a lot of standup specials is because most women aren't funny. Every female standup (pretty much, there are a few awesome exceptions, I like about 4 or 5 female standups) tells the same jokes about the same subject. It's not funny to hear her jokes about strippers and relationships because I've heard them from every female comic who ever tried out for "Last Comic Standing".

Why is it that women can only tell jokes about men and relationships? There's no abstract thought or creativity in their comedy whatsoever. I watched that whole hour and did not laugh out loud once. In contrast, I've been watching last night's Daily Show for 9 minutes (paused the episode to get a beverage) and I've already laughed out loud 3 times...and I'm at the office instead of on my couch chillaxing like I was when I was watching "Money Shot". Check that, I'm now 9:35 into it and I've laughed 5 times...Whitney Cummings did not accomplish that in 60 minutes.

Compare her to John Pinette, Myq Kaplan, George Carlin, Chris Rock, Frank Caliendo, Russell Peters, Robert Schimmel, Jerry Seinfeld, Eddie Murphy, Richard Pryor, hell, even the annoying Dane freaking Cook made me laugh more than Whitney Cummings did on Saturday night when I flipped channels after her episode was done.

Find me a list of the top-10 all-time best standups, and MAYBE you'll find a couple that have a single woman in them. That's it. Looks clearly don't matter in standup, all that matters is that the person is funny, especially in today's Youtube age. It's not sexism, it's nature. It'd be like saying that it's sexist that there are no women in the NFL or the NBA. It's not sexist, it's a fact of nature that women aren't as well designed for those activities as men.
