Summary/Abstract: This study aims at discussing if there is a significant difference between male and female students’ comprehension skills of humorous texts. Therefore, six Nasreddin Hodja’s jokes in Turkish books for the first graders in Turkey have been given to 120 students in Samsun, Turkey. Both reading and listening comprehension skills of the first graders have been tested through 41 questions about the six jokes. The data have been analysed by SPSS. It has been indicated that the comprehension competence of both female and male students can be said to be insufficient for humorous texts.
