"Hmm. Nearly every interaction between a male and female character involves him saying something misogynistic, her calling him out, and him frantically backpedaling. Every interaction between two female characters, without fail, involves at least one mentioning how horrible 'men' are rather than any individual man in specific. I wonder if -- yup, the author's a woman"

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Picks up a misogynistic book, complains about it in a way as if she knows exactly what sex feels for all other women. Also, obviously, now all books about women should be written by women only and books about men by men only.
Sees comic online that they can’t relate to.
Makes them feel weird.
Makes an inane, oddly icky, quote complaining about the comic.
I can completely relate - picked up a book my girlfriend was reading, which transpired to be a romance novel. It was like reading someone else's Facebook feed. I understand the words and everything but none of it made any sense at all.
Jim Butcher, is that you?
