The Sense of Humor: The Criterion that Evolution Has Become Conscious (Original Staging‪)‬

Responding to a question about why there are not many women comediennes or jokes which do not have a male chauvinistic ring to them, Osho dives into the context and history of women in societies and the sense of humor coming into existence at a late stage of evolution. 

No animal other than humans have a sense of humor. The sense of humor can be called the criterion whether evolution has become conscious or not.

From the series: The New Dawn, Chapter #31
