Am I wrong for telling my boyfriend just because he doesn't understand my Jokes doesn't mean he's funnier than me?

My boyfriend and I were having an argument wherein he said that he's funnier than me because sometimes my jokes "fall flat". I told him that no, they just fly right over his head because dry humour is often misunderstood. He then said that I just use dry humour as an excuse to be rude to him and that I'm actually just unfunny with bad comic timing. That hurt me and then he said that I can't handle a playful fight and if I didn't understand he was joking, I shouldn't call myself and expert on dry humour. The fight started because we were just playfully talking and I called him a wanker 3 or 4 times and he said that I have no right to mock him for liking my body or reacting by laughing when he expresses his love for me. Am I wrong for defending myself and calling him a condescending jackass?

He’s probably right. Women usually aren’t funny. They tend to take everything serious. That’s why a majority of the funniest comedians ever have been men, not women. Men tend to take bad things in life and turn it into something funny. Women tend to hold onto whatever bad things happened in their life till they die.

No right to mock him for liking your body does register as a subtle joke to me. Both of you just need to chill down.

You don't really know whose is funnier without a third party and its really not worth the argunent.

Humor is subjective
