droid_1's response: Hehehehe!!!
Try to think of it as how the typical male thinks of the typical female. More complicated than himself. Perhaps non-understandable.
Of course, I re-iterate that I personally do not understand *anybody*.
My response:
You mean for me to stereotype, and I've been fighting against that since I can remember finding out what stereotypes were.
I think this explains my style of sense of humor when it comes to racial humor, for example: I like Richard Pryor--he tried to explode race from the inside out. I don't like people who play to type, like this new black comic who said (I'm paraphrasing), "You know more of us is out there stealing things, just like more Hispanics work out west." (This is also why I don't like Carlos Mencia.)
True comedy surprises instead of confirms (or it may confirm, but it confirms the nuanced, not the "rule").
