The women’s use of humor, meanwhile, didn’t make the men want to date them more—it actually made them slightly less alluring. That’s right: The men found the pretty, unfunny women more desirable than equally pretty ones who also happened to be funny.
I've said this often around here - women don't want a girlfriend, they want a boyfriend. That's why your masculinity is important when it comes to picking up women. While women love to hang out with their male bestie who shops with them, watches Desperate Housewives, and reads Perez Hilton, that isn't exactly a solid mating strategy. Engaging in female behavior makes a man less attractive to females.
On the flip side, the same holds true for us - men do not want a boyfriend. We want a girlfriend. While a girl who burps, farts, and plays Playstation might be fun to hang out with, it does not make her dating material. She's "one of the guys". Engaging in male behavior makes a woman less attractive to males.
These 'funny women' are disappointed that their mating strategy is contrary to our genetic profiles.

"Men Prefer Feminine Women, Not "Funny' Women"
It's hard to actually know that for a fact, though, because scientists are still searching for a woman who is funny.

The 'ol wow just wow line from this bland article (the author tries to be funny. She's not).
Anyway, she wrote:
Still, it’s depressing that for many women who aren’t professional comedians, the most valuable social currency is beauty—or worse, “being sweet.”
Unbelievable. Do they really think being friendly and nice is that awful?

Add to list; chicks who drink beer and talk about craft beers. Bloated and stupor drunk ain't no way to go through life.

The author, Olga Khazan:
Maybe one of her orbiters ignored her in favor of a more feminine girl. Don't read too much into this.
Not on here much anymore. I'm either out on 2 wheels or trying to kill something.

Women are a joke...
We will stand tall in the sunshine
With the truth upon our side
And if we have to go alone
We'll go alone with pride
For us, these conflicts can be resolved by appeal to the deeply ingrained higher principle embodied in the law, that individuals have the right (within defined limits) to choose how to live. But this Western notion of individualism and tolerance is by no means a conception in all cultures. - Theodore Dalrymple

Men prefer "feminine" women?
No shit, Sherlock.
It bothers me greatly to live in a time and culture where being feminine is not considered the essence of being a woman, the natural, normal behaviour of the human female, which thus doesn´t need to be mentioned explicitly as a character trait, but instead became an unusual and peculiar behaviour that therefore needs to be added as an adjective before the word "woman", as it is not included in its definition anymore.
Words shape the way we think, and the way we think determines how we act and behave.
The word "woman" got separated from the word "feminine"; it is now possible to be one without also being the other.
What was literally unthinkable in previous generations has now become reality.
We need to keep a close eye on people trying to change our language and the way it develops.
They might have an agenda.

Depends on what they define as funny. A girl telling jokes or being a wiseass, no. But I get bored very quickly with girls with no or little sense of humour (of course that probably relates mostly to her ability to find me funny, rather than her own attempts at humour) and the ability to just relax and not take everything too damn seriously.

You know, if a girl is actually funny, that's a benefit.
I have known a total of one legitimately hilarious woman in my life.
The rest were situationally funny at best and most weren't very funny at all.

Maybe next they'll fund a ground breaking study to determine whether or not water is wet.
Nothing shrinks my dick more than a chick who thinks and acts like "one of the guys" or tries to be some slick talking witty banterer.

I like a girl with a good sense of humor. Mind you, I define a girl with a good sense of humor as one who gets my jokes and thinks I'm funny.
Take care of those titties for me.

Also, many women think sarcasm is humor.
It's not.
Sarcasm is a crutch used by the humorless.

^I won't click the link because I already know what that is, but thats full-on dick implosion. Hideous women make my manhood go Caitlyn Jenner. I don't even put ugly women on any kind of a totem of attractiveness.
I'll tell ya though it really grinds my nuts when I see a beautiful girl with a grating personality - or a girl who is sweet as pie and would be absolutely gorgeous to boot if she lost like 30 lbs.

This is why offering misbehaviour is such a successful game tactic. Women long to be led astray.
This is something I learned by jokingly telling an engaged girl that I wanted to impregnate her and trick the guy into raising it. I'm not the smoothest dude by any means, but the way she lit up when I said that cued me into this lesson that I've never forgotten since about the female desire for bad behavior. It manifests itself in many ways, such as the glee they can have when they're gossiping (i.e. shit talking).
And on the whole "being nice" thing, they're not nice to you unless they think you deserve it. For them it's tied to respect. And respect is how they perceive your status relative to others. Not to get too evo-psych on people, but there are several primate species where the females actively encourage the bigger, stronger males to fight the lesser males, even when unprovoked (we refer to this in the human world as "bullying").
