Gabby's Playhouse: Discussing Sexism on the Internet

[mad]

So, recently Kate Beaton made some comments on Twitter about how sometimes guys that like her work will respond with comments she finds creepy/uncomfortable/offensive.

Gabby's Playhouse then did a webcomic entitled "How Every Single Discussion About Sexism and Woman-Type Stuff on the Internet (and real life) Has Ever Happened And Ever Will Happen, Always, Forever, Until the Earth Finally Falls Into The Sun. (Or until the patriarchy is finally dismantled.)"

I don't quite get that last panel, but the rest of it is kinda recognizable.

I agree, saying something like that would be creepy as all hell. I have never said anything like that, but I have seen both men and women make statements like that, even here on this community.

But you object to a comic that addresses what too often happens if someone objects to that kind of comment? One does not follow from the other.

I don't object to the premise rather the specific form their argument took.

Okay, I'll bite. What does that even mean?

[mad]

They don't like...comics?

[valtyr]

Maybe they thought this was an MRI comm?

It's a tone argument, right? I claim my No Prize.
