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.

Someone downvoted you which is lame. All you've advocated for is that both groups have their issues be respected in public discourse.
Because like the comic is pointing out as the issue and that OP has just done that exact thing - steering the conversation of topic away from the focus.
In a discussion about women by a woman, it sounds crazy but maybe they want the focus to be on women. That doesn't mean men issues don't matter or don't exist. There are an infinite number of venues to discuss it that are not in a thread regarding women issues.
Is this thread really about women's rights though?
It's more of a meta thread about the issue the comic brings up, it's about how some men switch the topic around. If the comic was intended to focus entirely on women's rights it would end at the first image
Yea, that happens online. It rarely happens irl with regular folk. It's really quite obvious when you actually interact with the outside world regularly. I've found that many ppl do empathize with most ppl's problems. More often than what online comics imply.
And it's fine to talk about enby issues in any discussion, because enbies are the most oppressed gender demographic.
