Do men find funny women attractive
Are funny women attractive?

Even though my posts here are usually serious and sincere, most people who know me assess I’m really funny. Sometimes without trying. I love to construct people laugh. My humor is usually quirky and gentle, not biting and sarcastic. (Think Lorelai Gilmore…except I don’t look prefer her. :rolleyes: )
I surmise my question is this: Is the average guy’s ego such that he wouldn’t want to be with someone funnier than he is? Of course I have a specific guy in mind, who seems to love me a lot, but things just aren’t moving along as quickly as I’d like.
I’m newly single and I just wonder…is my sense of humor going to make things harder for me to meet someone? I just want to know…I have no intention of switching one of the best things about me to get a guy.
I think of all the funny women…Dorothy Parker, Lucille Ball, for example who had a lot of trouble with relationships. I don’t want anymore unhappiness in my life, please.

A sense of humor is a marvelous thing. Don’t settle for anyone who doesn’t appreciate yours.

Starting Conversation With Attractive Women
A womans beauty and boobs can be quite a distraction for men.
The more testotorone a man as - then the more attracted he his to her, and whilst he's looking at her he can feel an erection arousal and he can listen to the conversation he's having with himself about her which goes ooooh, I'd love to bed her, so because of this he experience uncomfortable in her presence and squirms with inner embarrassment.
So, keep your thoughts under control, glance at her forehead - not her boobs, and create [make up] "a phony story along the lines of , "I must go somewhere else in ten minutes second to keep a prior appoinment, pity, because I was so enjoying this conversation, but duty calls". Then 30 minutes later you can conveniantly neglect the appointment, shut out the world outside, twist off the lights, and let nature takes it course. And smile, damn you smile, you've snared another one, and so as she?

Ive discussed the importance of shared feeling of humor before, and how vital this is for many couples to feel close. Often, an elephant in the room of your marriage is that you dont actually find your partner funny. Of course, women dont like when you make EVERYTHING into a joke, but overall in my clinical experience as a couples therapist (and in my own marriage, where I find my husband very funny!), women are more attracted to and happy with guys who can create them laugh. Here are five reasons that women enjoy funny guys. Reading through this list can also build you realize why you arent that funny, and one key way to work on it!
- Funny can be a proxy variable for smart. You cant be funny without being a speedy thinker, and women are evolutionarily primed to want immediate thinking, intelligent mates who can identify food, hunt, and evade predators. As always, everything comes back to biology!
- Funny guys are empathic. Remember, empathy means that you can deeply understand others experiences and position yourselves

Ever wonder why a shared laugh or witty remark can spark attraction? Humor does more than lighten the mood—it may reveal clues about a person’s creativity. Investigate by Erika Langley and Michelle Shiota suggests that humor serves as a signal for creative thinking, offering potential partners insights into someone's ability to approach situations in novel ways.
Why We Value Humor in Relationships
“Looking for someone with a great meaning of humor” is a common phrase in virtual dating profiles, and for fine reason. Humor makes interactions enjoyable, helps people bond, and can ease awkward moments. But could it serve a deeper role in attraction? According to researchers, humor may move beyond being a social tool—it might act as a cue for creativity, making it a desirable trait in romantic partners.
