My girlfriend cannot take a joke. Is this normal for females?

I joke a lot. 99% of the time, I joke about things or myself. I'm usually the butt of my own jokes. I'm quite comfortable with myself and don't take myself too seriously, and my girlfriend really likes that. However, if I EVER joke about her, she finds zero humor in it and gets pissed, no matter how inconsequential the joke is. I've noticed this with several other girls I've been somewhat close with, so I'm wondering if this is normal among women or not. I don't seem to have the problem at all with guys.

Korean culture is a mixture of Chinese and Japanese culture.

My sister prefers guys who take jabs at her and vice versa. She says she likes some wit and playfulness in the guys she dates.

But remember there's a line you shouldn't cross. You can poke fun at your girlfriend, but make sure it's not harsh.

What do you mean your GF can't take a joke. She's dating YOU, isn't she?

Have you ever pondered the possibility you aren't as funny as you think you are and instead are really obnoxious?

Why don't you give shutting the f*** up a try for a change?

My GF wont take a number of things, including a good dose of love, you just have to learn to accept

Taken with some humorous sarcasm. :) I thought this was a universal problem.
