as proponents of democracy know, ideas great in theory can turn to disaster when confronted by the test that is the real world. so as thomas jefferson asserted in the federalist papers, i could not say with certainty that my theory on women not being funny held up until subjected to the rigor of outside examination by women.
and after some drunken debate over new year's dinner, i am happy to report that my theory held up beautifully to its first test. however, the contribution of others' ideas has showed me that even the finest theories can use several iterations of revisionism, the way of reasonable men. so without further due, i unveil the new, improved version of my theory.
men can make men laugh and women can make women laugh -- but men alone make both sexes laugh.
and to be honest, i'm not sure the things that women say to make other women laugh really qualifies as humor. rather it may just be idle chatter, which because of some unexplainable natural phenomenon causes giggling to ensue in half the world's inhabitants.
