I think there's gender parity in most kinds of archetypes (hero/heroine, villain/villainess, antihero/antiheroine). But there seem to be 10x more male "comic fool" archetypes (buffoon, sadsack, windbag,...) than female. The only female one I can actually think of is "ditz".

An intellectual strength of the patriarchy is that it includes a mature and structurally integrated theory of male stupidity (follow the jokes to trace contours) As feminism gains real power it will need to develop & structurally embody a similar theory of female stupidity.
