| Summary: | Human behavior in men and women develops in different way from very early ages, taking different roles that influence the way we see the world. As men and women have different sights of the world, they also understand humor in a different way. In the past, it was thought that women did not understand humor (Lakoff, 1975), nevertheless, this point of view is changing (Ervin–Tripp and Lampert, 1992, or Hay, 1995). The goal of this paper is to analyze humor evolution in women from their schoolchild, to their first university year. To do so, we will base on two corpus, created by GRIALE group from Alicante university, to compare humor mechanisms used by men and women. |
