why does most sitcoms portray the men as dumb asses and the woman as the brain.

I think that's the joke.

Comedy

There is nothing better than a wise man who takes proper care of his family.

We need you guys to stand up and be good men capable of making proper decisions. Women need to support and care for you. Turn off the sitcoms, return to and strengthen our families by complimenting rather than competing.

I do not know, and it isn't funny. Neither is smart mouthed kids who know it all.

Neither do I watch that frivolous garbage.

it holds true for black people too like the women....white men are always the doofus

Tv is stupid waste of time

why do you even watch it?

Most shows today are created for an agenda

sitcoms are there for a societal agenda

if you are comfortable being part of someone's plan then keep on watching

I figurd out their agenda several years ago and tv just does not interest me any longer

Most of the garbage is about some stupid sitcom reality show

or someone killing someone else and then the murder investigation

I am sick of the lack of creativity

I stopped watching it really when they stopped making the Next Generation Star Trek type shows

and went to murder, killing or just plain stupid mindless garbage


Go read a good book

it will do your brain some good!!

They keep making shows like that, and Ikeep on not watching. I prefer British comedies.

hey, OP, look at your grammar and see if you can figure it out

I like Raising Hope. They are all portrayed as dumb asses.

C'mon... it's all the same story.

The underdog needs to be smarter.

It's all a part of the feminization of boys. Downplay the role of men in society and family. Remember when women used to be "womanized" on TV? Well, now it's the opposite, except that it's acceptable to do it to men.

This is precisely why we're ending up with so many peter puffers in society. They have screwed up the roles of the sexes in society and in school.

Because they are predominantly written by fags

It's based on the formula of the very first sit come ever..The Honeymooners. The characters were Ralph Cramden (played by Jackie Gleason) and his smart wife. He was stupid and always getting into messes...and she was always bailing him out. It worked, and it's been the model ever since. I learned that in a comedy writing class.

Personally, I don't think it's funny, but that's why.

Intellectually, to help split women away from the wisdom of men, and make them dependent on politically organized Democrat feminist groups for their information. Emotionally, to make women feel they can never trust men, so that they have to join a feminist group for security.

And then because even that's not enough, they are all pressured to take antidepressants to flouridate their brains and numb out their intuitions.

American women are the most head-fucked people on the planet. They are massively mind controlled, and live on endless insecurity because of it, which creates constant fear, which is then turned into rage by feminist controllers and directed at men and conservatives.

And should they ever try to leave their feminist control group, they are completely shunned and slandered and destroyed with nowhere to go since they no longer trust men because of their mind control programming.

They live their lives following instructions and codes, whether in the form of code words and saying, or colors, shapes patterns and what to wear.

Which is why at the end of the day, while they wear blue and yellow accents with their black pantsuits and get their hair chopped short and dyed blond it it is so sad that they live without hope because of their misplaced trust in feminist monsters.

I watch 30 rock and The Big Bang theory...neither have the stereotye you are speaking of, and why does it matter any way? I suppose if you actually live and believe what you watch, then perhaps its a problem. I look to it as a humorous escape for a few minutes a week. There is nothing wrong with that, in moderation of course, just like most everything else...

why DO most sitcoms portray men as dumb asses.....you are not helping out here man

According to folklore, women are evil by nature, so they're probably more calculating.
Most men are easily pussy whipped too.

Men are like dogs and women are like cats. Think about it.

dont feed the animals

Oh, I think it is more than comedy, this stuff encourages females to treat guys they never met before like dirt, particularly in the states.

THREE WORDS - ORION DNA PROGRAMMING

Yes, it is usually white females that buy into this garbage, I don't see Latinos getting disrespected by Latinas, I don't see black men being disrespected by their females, but it is more common among whites, tv sure is powerful brainwashing, along with universities of "higher learning."

Okey dokey, I made my point here, last post.

It's just a tired, hackneyed old joke that goes back at least to the very first sit-coms in the 1950's and for all I know might go back to radio shows or Vaudville, even.

It's just an old trope that a lot of low brow comedies still cling to because it's comfortable and still gets laughs from less discerning viewers.

There are good comedies out there that don't cling to ancient tropes like this. "Community" is doing really brilliant stuff right now, "Arrested Development" was probably the best sit-com of all time, and it's (amazingly!) coming back for a short season and a movie!!! "Seinfeld," "All In the Family," "WKRP In Cincinnati" and a handful of others over the years have avoided the old tropes and done really great, original comedy. They are few and far between, but the best ones are worth looking out for.

Fucking conspiracy. It happens in commercials too. One of my friends told me, several months ago, that he noticed racism in commercials too. White people are depicted to be the dummies. I don't watch much tv, and when I do, I do something else during the commercials, so I never noticed it, but I believe him.

dont bother telling these people its nothing other than a big conspiracy to brainwash us all and control us...They accept no other reason for anything, anything at all...just sayin'

I forgot about community, also rather humorous, and quite original most episodes...

As a white woman, with a higher than average IQ, independent, conservative, self-sufficient...and one who hasn't watched TV in more than 20 years....I imagine it's because the majority of men out there are simply ignorant, uncultured, unread, and still clinging to their adolescent chest puffing stunts. Women are evolving more quickly than men. That's my guess. I may be wrong, but I live in a rural area where it's almost impossible to find a man who can think, reason, and talk about anything except sports, hunting, past law violations, and the last female conquest. The men who are thinkers, are wimpy liberals who can't even change the oil in their vehicles. When men decided to stand up and become respectable, perhaps TV shows will imitate reality.

And the man is usually ugly or fat, if not both while the woman is thin and good looking

I've noticed that a lot of intelligent, conservative women are quite bitter and myopic.
