Is this a Jewish thing? I\u2019ve never looked at a child and seen ugly. Some kids are funny-looking, sure, but they all seem pretty cute to me. I seem to note that comedians seem to have a standard bit of \u201cwhat do you say when someone\u2019s kid is ugly?\u201d routine that never sells with me. It\u2019s really mean, since kids can\u2019t defend themselves and its almost a literal definition of punching down.<\/p>\n<p>I say Jewish comedians because I\u2019ve noted that Jewish guys seem to have this large insecurity about their looks. Almost every Jewish comedian had some bit or part of their biography where they talk about themselves being some \u201cugly little Jew\u201d , especially when they talk about some shishka broad they want to get with (In his films, Woody Allen has portrayed this memorably). So attacking the kids as ugly really comes off as projection. And I can\u2019t recall black comedians or other-ethnic comedians doing routines about \u201cugly kids of others.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jewish women have this insecurity as well about being less attractive than goyim, hence why they make so many blond jokes. But it makes more sense in women, since their main power is their looks, and the shishka-fever among Jewish men is a cliche. In Jewish men, however, this insecurity comes off as creepy and weird\u2014why, as a man, are you so concerned about it, Schlomo?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Comments to Steve Sailer: * One thing about the clip that bugs me is how Shandling starts talking about\/making fun of \u201cugly kids.\u201d I\u2019ve seen many a comedian do this.
