Women prefer a fun time with comic Kay
9:10am Wednesday 9th May 2007
Comments (22)WOMEN have voted Bolton comedian Peter Kay their dream date - ahead of Hollywood heart-throbs Brad Pitt and George Clooney.
Kay topped the poll as more than half of the women surveyed by online dating website match.com said a sense of humour was the top thing they looked for in a man.
Little Britain star David Walliams and comic Russell Brand also made the top 10. Being funny beat being clever by a long way, with 55 per cent of women preferring a sunny outlook to 18 per cent wanting a man who was seriously intelligent.
Only nine per cent wanted their man to be sensitive, and just one in a 100 said they looked for a good body.
A spokesman for the dating website said: "I'd go so far as to say laughter makes love happen."

Given a choice between a date with Peter Kay or Brad Pitt, more women would choose PK?

So let me get this right. Given a choice between a date with Peter Kay or Brad Pitt, more women would choose PK? Never read so much horsesh1t in all my life.

Till death do us part. Do they still have that in the wedding service? If they do I expect for many men death will be a welcome visitor.

A man needs a sense of humour to spend any longer than than 30 seconds listening to the mind numbing babble of women talking "She did this" "He did that" Does my arse look big?" "Did you watch Coronation St/Emerdale/Eastenders?" "It only cost" "Are you looking at her" "When are you going to fix it" Till death do us part. Do they still have that in the wedding service? If they do I expect for many men death will be a welcome visitor.

No doubt it's only a matter of time before the noble arts of **** and belching are also highjacked by women wanting to be men, or more to the point women wanting men to be women.

It makes me laugh how some men love to slag off women all the time, but you can't seem to live without us now can you?

Why all the derisory comments Dave? Have you been dumped recently?

Women have had far too much influence on society in recent years, and look at the results. Instead of creating great works of art or music, fantastic invention, exploration and all the other fine endeavors of the past MANkind now goes shopping and concerns himself with body waxing and working out.
It was a great mistake to give the vote to women, their brains are not suited to the process of making important decisions.

I told people you were a bore, and your repetition of old stuff is proving the case for the prosecution.
How about some fresh ideas ?

I urge you to seek help before your kid suffers. I know smithills hall farm have a place for him but you need to gain strength from his existance.
If you need to talk you know where i am.
BTW aren't you glad that women like men with a mediocre sense of humour?
