My girlfriend made me watch one of those Iliza Schlesinger Netflix specials the other day and good fucking God it was one of the least funny things I had ever seen. I think I laughed once during the entire hour and a half. It was all about women and what women think and how men are basically apes, unfeeling monsters with flesh sex toys and bank accounts, at the same time preaching about how hurtful sexism and patriarchy is. It was completely unrelatable and impenetrable to me.

I was kind of miffed that she thought it was so funny and then I remembered all the moments of "locker-room talk" that me and my friends get up to. It's not like we are overtly sexist on purpose but you know how that shit is. I realized that I find that pretty funny depending on the context but she definitely wouldn't. It was good to hear her laugh for about an hour so I can deal with smiling along quietly.

Based on this I'll make the claim that comedy is deeply personal, it's ok that some comedy is not "for you" and as more people of different backgrounds make comedy you'll see more and more things you don't like and that's fine.
