Men. Not to say women can't be funny, they just have little incentive to be.
Men are more threatening physically, so humor can help put people at ease.
Men are less social than women, so comedy can be a way of bonding and belonging.
Men are less empathetic on average, so they can say risque things with a cleaner conscience.
Men have to pursue women to secure relationships, so humor is a way to prove their value.
Men also have less satisfying careers, so humor can be a way of relieving their own worries.
