I love the 3 stooges, been watching them on and off since I was in grade school. But I've also noticed that my mom hated them, my sister hated them, my wife hates them, and talking with other women, they all seem to have a genuine disgust of their type of humor.

HELP!

I don't understand!!!!!

The Three Stooges were comedy geniuses. Most women don't like slapstick comedy, but luckily for me my wife thinks the Stooges are funny.

It's probably not that they don't like the Stooges in particular, it's that they don't like slapstick in general.

"Niagara Falls! Slowly I turn... step by step... inch by inch... "

I like the Stooges.

It's because they see it as men having fun. And they can't allow that, just ask any woman.

The way my wife explains it: because all of the slapstick stuff is what a lot of men do in real life to beat up their wives/kids when they're mad, so it's painful to watch.

"A lot" of men? How about a very stupid minority who get publicity all the time because they are doing things that are so far out of normal?

2. My wife, daughter, mom (before she passed), and my sisters all enjoy The Stooges.

It's just the women in your life yellowfiero. Sorry bud.

So what's it like being married to a feminazi?

Cause the humor is designed for a mental age of 2 and an IQ of 50, which is what most of us men fall back to as soon as we hit a couch.

The same reason why most women don't like Adam Sandler and British humor(John Cleese, Rowan Atkinson, Benny Hill)

It's a form of humor that their brains simply cannot register on it's limited level of humor appreciation.

Usually women hate them, who knows why - they have no taste in comedy ;)

however, my mother LOVES the Stooges, she's always been a big fan :)

Not sure I'd want to use your criteria. As far as I can tell, you don't think anything is funny. ;)

I used to love to stay up and watch them when I was a kid. I still like them, but I don't find them as funny as I did when I was a kid. :)

Tom Green is understandable...and no self respecing man likes Andy Dick, so I'll all-out agree with you here and say he sucks balls

O and my balls are so big you wouldent be able to handel them so ill just contine to hold onto them
Nonsense, we have a dump truck outside to haul even the largest of balls out of here :D If they're even too big for the truck, hell, you deserve to keep em
