Lenny Bruce - The difference between men & women

I always loved the "ambulance" example, and finally found this whole bit. From the "Berkeley Concert" CD.

[@skinyone1084]

I wouldnt say he was the first edgy comic... i know Redd Foxx was doing less than wholesome comedy in the 50s, but Lenny took it to a whole different level... that being said im sure Redd pushed his comedy as far as he felt he could being a black man in that era... P.S. little fun fact, Redd Foxx was the first comic to make a comedy album, so essentially Redd Foxx had the first comedy special, and he also recorded over 50 comedy albums in his life...

[@diomedestydeus3298]

You've got to be kidding? That's what you got out of that 4min?

[@angeloiodice9304]

Yeah, that's all I got out of it. He was before his time. Somehow his social guards were removed and he spoke what everybody else was guarding and it was somewhat enlightening and entertaining. To take it any further than that would be a stretch. It was a quantum leap in analyzing and speaking about society. But that period of time was the changing of the guard, the 60's came and drugs removed everybody's social filters. But beyond that for further enlightenment one must go a bit deeper.

[@skudzer1985]

It's now 2018 and Lenny Bruce would be protested and picketed against because of his "controversial" material. Think about that.

[@sharoncohen318]

it's only 'contreversial' now because it's already outdated

[@shalini_sevani]

In his own time he was routinely arrested. People were very offended by him. People have always been easily offended. So what is your point?

[@spb7883]

That’s right. It’s part of the cultural fabric of censorship, this Puritan streak in us. But don’t forget that one of the reasons when Bruce died, the New Left was just beginning to influence and take over (which they eventually did) the New Deal Left. The latter was an older generation, culturally more conservative and thus more accepting of its Puritanism. Those people were just as offended by Bruce as self-described political conservatives. This is one of the reasons he was so controversial. Now we have a generation of self-styled leftists for who the sins of their fathers - particularly with respect to free speech - are the sins of the New Left. This is why so much entertainment that I grew up enjoying in part because of its subversiveness is now anathema on the so-called left: what was once rightly viewed as a reaction to crippling cultural conservatism is now seen as egregious masculinity, white privilege, or cultural appropriation. But here’s the paradox: the Millennial and post-Millennial left - while often ahistorical - are nevertheless historically minded enough to realize Bruce has been dead 50+ years. However, in the absence of their awareness - indeed, in many cases their outright dismissal - of Bruce’s context, of a repressive society where the police can arrest a performer for saying certain words in public, this Millennial and post-Millennial left fails to consider they are reviving that old, socially conservative left. In other words, they may think they are progressing beyond their parents, but they are really regressing to their great-grandparents.

Men seek, women choose. Men are valueless compared to women, because a man need only take a couple minutes to make his contribution to the procreative act, a woman takes at least 9 months, plus maybe a couple years during which she needs to breast feed and bond with the baby. It's a biological bottleneck that defines the sexes. Men are cheap, so we love very broadly, we have to be chosen and we have to take what we can get. We have to work hard to make ourselves valuable enough to be worth it. Women love very selectively, and specifically, they love ASPECTS of a man, not the man himself. They love what he can do, what he has achieved; what he has to offer her. A man loves the woman that chooses him, he doesn't understand that she only loves what she chose him for, and when that's gone, so is he.

I am glad someone else said it. I love comedy and I understand things were different then but I have tried and he is just not funny. I like Carlin, Richard Pryor. But Bruce is rambling stoner drivel.

And used that crucifix not being what Jesus wants to see when he comes back in EVERY show. But most people worship him and would crucify me for saying this. Just as they do with Bruce. However I would bet my life savings that if you polygraph tested all Hicks/Bruce fans to answer if they liked either of the aforementioned because of zeitgeist pressure, to look cool, or because they are supposed to, any reason other than they find his comedy funny, I bet the majority of people aged 50 or under would fail.
