I think there are a few factors. One is just that genetically speaking women fall on a narrower bell curve than men do. So while there are definitely women who are funnier than most guys, the funniest people are men. Another is that the skills of a good stand-up are developed by doing grueling road gigs. Bill Burr is so good partly because he did shitty road work for a long time. Same with Louie C.K. and every other top stand up I can think of. That's a lifestyle that just isn't that appealing to most women. So for a woman to become a good stand up she has to be funny and willing to do grueling road work.
There are a few notable exceptions: Maria Bamford is one of the funniest people I've ever seen.
What are you talking about? It's lady is not funny at all
