Being an outstanding poet of contemporary American,Ruth Stone ingeniously highlights the female superiority with humor,which is particularly exposed on these parts: criticizing and deconstructing the traditional the patriarchal system with laughter and scolding,protecting female identity with female wisdom;eliminating various sufferings with optimism and amusement. She also employs Black Humor to shock the numb people and the women who are willing to submit to male domination,leading people to ponder about the role of women and the meaning of existence. Based on the theories of humor and gender,this paper intends to interpret the poems of Stone from these three aspects: use humor to gain power,to relieve pain and suffering and to deconstruct male power,and also explores the new space in which humor and feminine discourse complement interact each other.
