1. Men who don't have much of a sense of humour can still be attractive to women - sometimes more so.
2. Men are probably more likely to try to be funny in the company of OTHER MEN - so who are they trying to attract?
3. Throughout most of human history life was a very serious business where women looked to men as providers and protectors rather than for their sense of humour.
4. Most men seem to manage to find a sexual partner at some time regardless of their looks or their sense of humour.

Hat Trick productions and Channel 4 are both British and all the indoor scenes were filmed in London. No Irish TV station would have picked it up at the time because of the "controversial" nature of the show.
Culturally Irish, yes.  Produced by a UK production company for a UK TV station though.

Well, thank you for explaining a centuries old tradition, for everyone to get settled out without spending ANY time. Without you, we all may still have been in the dark.

Women, pay attention.

Do you know what men are doing nowadays?

They´re paying money for sex. They give money to women who let them "hump" them.
I do this. Why? All I want is to hump. This way I don´t have to spend a lot of money, and listen to boring shit and MAYBE get some pussy.

You sit there in the bar, wearing your best outfit - I´ll be satisfying my needs while giving some girl some money, and we both feel like winners.

Biological imperative.

Explain that to all us men.

Even if you look it up on Google, I´m willing to bet you won´t understand what it means.

Am I right?

One I don't use "google". Two thank you for elaboration with a real edge to it because the other could be read either way. In response to the last "accusation", (not a point Sir)....No, my Dad had a married Mom. I prefer not to waste my time with an obviously very angry person so I wave your "challenge".

I´ll elaborate.
No good men? Is it possible for you to miss the point more?
Next point; I think we´ve seen what single moms can do, produce unstable males who are desperately looking for A MALE to look up to.
Next point; "Men who never "called" your future for you". In other words, men raised and taught (read: brain washed)by SINGLE MOMS to never object women.

Biological imperative is a bitch. I challenge you to explain it to me WITHOUT looking it up on Google.
