The funny thing is she’s not even the artist. She calls herself a “writer.” She storyboards the comics and then has a third party illustrate them. Makes the fact that they are all self inserts even cringier.
There’s an artist on here or Twitter or somewhere who makes comics about his hot blind wife, like her being hot and blind is the only punchline, at least in the handful of comics I read. Isekomix or summat like that
"Boys are so much easier to raise" mfs when their son turns out emotionally unstable and depressed after having their mental health essentially neglected because men are supposed to be "strong"
I love that this joke both works as a way to point out how suicidal dudes can end up as well as how many dudes enjoy doing aggressively stupid/dangerous shit for fun.
Every day I look at the revolver in the middle of my room reminding me that life is a choice only I have controll over and that as long as I don't follow the main instinct I have succeded
"Boys are so much easier to raise" mfs 🧑🦯 when their boy ends up getting sexually abused and doesn't realize what it was for years to come because boys can't be abused like that 🙈🙉
Yea. this. Also, as a father of two boys.... there is no way anyone has ever said: "Boys are easier" with a straight face. I'm convinced that phrase came about because it started as a joke and someone took it as advice and nobody knows the difference now.
Both are difficult for different reasons. Raising a child is not a "either or", it's a "Alright, let's do this!" every. single. day.
I feel like your job as a parent isn’t to go “he probably won’t be SA’d on the bus” but rather tell him what to do if he finds himself in a bad situation
I don’t think that the two are mutually exclusive, though. Regardless of how you prepare your children, there’s statistical evidence that a young woman is going to be at far greater risk than a young man.
This isn’t to say that an assault is anything but horrible if it happens to a child, but the difference in the likelihood is, statistically speaking, easier on the mind if it’s a boy.
I really don't think statistics matter, in this scenario. If I'm a parent, I'm not gonna be thinking "Oh, it's statistically unlikely, so I'm not going to worry about my son!" - the actual sexual assaulters out there don't care about statistics, they just sexually assault whenever and whomever they damn please.
This isn’t to say that an assault is anything but horrible if it happens to a child
…implying there are situations where SA is acceptable if it happens to non-children? I know it’s probably not what you meant but that struck me strangely.
This ☝️ The rates at which boys and young men are assaulted genuinely aren't even that much lower than that of women/girls. The 1 in 6 statistic likely doesn't even fully encapsulate the extent of it because that's just doing what they can to gather consistent evidence, in a society that historically has silenced all abuse survivors.
Am I the only one who always finds these statistics baffling high? Like… is there a single city in Florida or Texas or something where every kid is assaulted and then the study was conducted in that area? Because I find it very hard to believe there is this many people affected who are completely psychologically okay and never feel the need to address it with anyone.
A lot of people dont realize that what happened to them was sexual assault or abuse. And a lot of the statistics for women/young girls include specifically verbal sexual harassment, not just physical abuse, so cat calling from strangers (which is still awful and traumatic obviously) can sometimes be mixed in.
Well most non-pedophiles hope kids don’t get sa-ed on buses. That’s not really something that needs to be said.
Oh you were using it as a way to guilt them for pointing out the millennia-long longstanding sexual oppression of women and young girls, and the fact that women are more likely to have to worry about it and modify their behavior to avoid being targets. Got it. Yeah you’re sick for that.
You know that when a girl doesn't have any friends or dates because she's bullied, it leads her to be vulnerable and vulnerability is precisely what rapists like, also rape is a form of humiliation?
You are reaching or projecting or something. Who said anything about not having friends? Who said not dating because she’s bullied? The comic doesn’t say that at all.
It’s obviously about daughters being held to different standards than sons.
With the amount of guys I’ve known get raped as children by women, I’m scared for any child I might have regardless of gender. Especially because my boyfriend and I been SA’d by family members growing up…
Remembering how my partner never and never will told his mother because of shame makes me cry every time I think about it. I never want any children I might have to ever go through that.
1000%. I'm tired of getting to know other men and having to be the one to break it to them that yeah, they were groomed, or assaulted, or date raped/under the influence.
That yes, it is still causing a lasting pattern in their relationships and their view of themselves, even if they didn't file it in their head under "sexual abuse event"
And that yes they deserved to be protected and heard instead of having adults tell them they were the one in the wrong or that they got lucky..
Except he isn't even really all that less likely. Boys and men just get silenced even harder than most women/girls because of rhetoric like that. Which, is to say, it's pretty bad because its already absolute dogshit to be a female SA victim.
Nobody should experience that, anyone can be a victim (and the current most often cited statistics for how many men/boys get abused are inaccurate because of a lack of reporting and a lack of actual consideration /action from said reports)
Off topic but does everyone type "SA" because tiktok conditioned everyone into self-censorship or because tiktok conditioned everyone to be too impatient/apathetic to type out "sexual assault"
Its better than pdf, unalived, or ahh as far as censorhip goes. Hell I'll even take it over just randomly starring a few letters in a way that you can still completely tell what word it is
Does everyone type "ADHD" because tiktok conditioned everyone into self-censorship or because tiktok conditioned everyone to be too attention deficit hyperactivity disordered to type out "attention deficit hyperactivity disorder"
I usually type it as SA because I repeat the same phrase a lot, and I like to leave room for the distinction between sexual abuse and sexual assault. Sexual assault is always abuse, but sexual abuse isn't always physical assault.
According that logic they should be worried because a boy is more probable to SA's someone? Considering they are already pinning the plight on the imaginary daughter "if she is pretty", "if she is not pretty", it doesn't seem they are in able to give good values to that boy about treating women as people. Like, what if your boy is ugly? Being ugly dehumanised a girl but not a boy? What about the alleged "male loneliness"?
I mean not agreeing with them but the chance of your son OR daughter being a predator is much MUCH lower than the chance of them being a victim. Also I don't see how the make loneliness thing ties in at all but obviously it's clear that couple is much more vain about daughters then sons.
You’re assuming this inherently comes with emotional intelligence. No. They (rightfully) worry about their daughter being likely to encounter sa and harassment for her looks (good or ugly) and they won’t explain to her what to watch out for, or how to deal with the painful feelings of being seen as an object.
The same parents too immature to deeply connect with a son will just say things like “you can’t wear that because people will think you’re a hooker” or “close your legs when sitting that’s disgusting and men are staring at you” or “why didn’t you fight back enough when a grown man groped you as a kid, did you like it or something?”
Yeah these kinda parents think daughters are too much to care for and sons are too easy to handle. Like in the extreme ends of the spectrum.
If they have a son they'll neglect him thinking "he will handle himself", which leads to emotional problems in adult life.
If they have a daughter, they'll overdo their parenting to the point the kid gets burdened and thinks she is the problem, which then again leads to emotional problems as an adult.
These kinda parents, who want kids but don't want to put efforts into raising them, are the reason all these problems between men n women exist.
So... you're overprotective of your daughter because you see her as frail and more vulnerable, but not emotionally available to your son because you see him as stronger and requiring less emotional availability.
That's a great way to get a son that either hates you or hates women, or a daughter that hates you and goes behind your back to do dangerous stuff.
son has a concerningly high risk of turning into an asshole because it turns out that “just don’t be an ass” is not the same thing as actually being guided into having the emotional skills and social skills necessary to live an emotionally fulfilling and emotionally meaningful life with a healthy psyche aka not therefore acting out like an ass
No, the main character of these comic is always the black haired mom. This is not VOLUNTARILY bad, the black haired woman is supposed to be the author.
just that she felt her ideas were so fantastic that she had to pay someone to draw them so she could post, so yeah, the content essentially. the art is fine.
It looks like the author straw-maning or at best, sharing and uncomfortable interaction. Edit: didn't know the writer, but how do you make yourself sound like the bad guy in your own comic, yikes
She apparently storyboards these comics and then has a third party actually illustrate them. Joy Lin—the self insert—refers to herself as a “writer” for this.
Alloy sexualizing her son firstly, secondly neglects completely his emotional and psychological state. Mother of the century, I won't wish mother like this even to my nemesis. Like "It's just a cute web comic", but I'm sure Alloy's son will be a main character in some true crime podcast 20-30 years later
I might be wrong because it's the first comic I see from that author, but I feel like we're supposed to be the person on the right side and the comic is basically to say "that thing is bothering me so much, but society deems it normal so I'm not allowed to call them out, even if I try to explain it in the nicest way, I'll be socially rejected"
As a college student who can’t care enough to take care of himself and hasn’t had a drop of romantic nor nurturing experience, I recommend communicating with your child. Lots of parents have disciplined their children for misbehaving, and it’s usually that discipline that stops them from doing it again. But the explanation for why it is bad still needs to be told. “Because I said so” or “father/mother knows best” or whatever doesn’t explain it. Don’t look down on a child just because their mind hasn’t been nurtured as much as yours. They are capable of learning, thinking, and maturing even at young ages we might not expect.
Also, do not shy away from or avoid topics they’re not old enough to know yet. Parents eventually have to give their child “the talk,” but they have to be old enough physically and mentally to process this period of change that is puberty and/or adolescence. Sometimes, a child might ask such a question like “where do babies come from” or something either tamer or more eyebrow raising in comparison.
The thing is, if you refuse to answer the child, they might try to get their answers from somewhere else. If they remember the question, they’ll remember you haven’t given them an understandable answer. However, the thing to know is that they still might not be of age to know yet.
In this situation, “I’ll tell you when you’re older” is probably the best call, but you’ll also need to explain why if they’re still unsatisfied. Don’t be condescending, but remind them that they’re still growing up and there’s an order in things they learn. A bad and/or mistimed introduction to the darker things in life can stunt their mental growth and could make them commit actions they’ll come to regret.
In short, communicate with your child. Do not underestimate their learning capacity. But remember their age and consider what is and isn’t appropriate for that age. And if they try to reach outside to the things they’re not supposed to know yet, don’t hide it, but rather give them motivation to stay away from it until they’re ready to know. Convince them that it’s for the best. If the parent knows best, let the child learn why that’s for the best.
DISCLAIMER: This is all just my opinion and does not come from any experience whatsoever. This is simply how I believe I should raise a kid if I ever have one.
Thanks, you too. I hope you’re not relating to the “not taking care of myself” part, but if you are, then best of luck to the both of us in regaining motivation.
Most people mistake children chewing on stuff as "Teething." This is s misconception.
Your child is likely a nicotine dependent person, either trying to find the nearist cigarette or simulate chewing tobacco. If you see your child do this, remember to give them the nicotine products they crave. The need them to survive.
Misogynistic content: people criticise the misogyny. Everyone agrees.
Misandric content: clowns camp in the comments to dismiss that men can have negative experiences too and twist it into misogyny instead. Don't dismiss your boy growing up because... he will turn into bully sexual offender, as all men are, you know.
GUESS WHAT ...

Love the detail that she is just drinking water and not beer or any drink
Decent detail for an artist who seems to be kind of a crappy person considering the actual message of the full comic.
The funny thing is she’s not even the artist. She calls herself a “writer.” She storyboards the comics and then has a third party illustrate them. Makes the fact that they are all self inserts even cringier.
At least hot blind wife guy draws his own comics…
Oh I forgot about the hot blind wife nut
Who?
There’s an artist on here or Twitter or somewhere who makes comics about his hot blind wife, like her being hot and blind is the only punchline, at least in the handful of comics I read. Isekomix or summat like that
That’s because she’s pregnant?
Yeah but many a times artists forget those details, atleast the onces I have seen
Oh I'm sorry, I think I misunderstood the tone of your comment last night. I've had a fever for days, I'm not thinking straight 😅

Hey, quit rushin' my roulette
I love that this joke both works as a way to point out how suicidal dudes can end up as well as how many dudes enjoy doing aggressively stupid/dangerous shit for fun.
Every day I look at the revolver in the middle of my room reminding me that life is a choice only I have controll over and that as long as I don't follow the main instinct I have succeded
"Boys are so much easier to raise" and it's because they don't actually raise them (they end up being horrible human beings)
🎯 yep, many people have that idea sadly
"Boys are so much easier to raise" mfs 🧑🦯 when their boy ends up getting sexually abused and doesn't realize what it was for years to come because boys can't be abused like that 🙈🙉
No no no, boys are "lucky" if they got abused by a lady! That's what braindead society says at least.
r/sillyboyclub for your consideration
Never go there that shit genuinely can ruin your day
Oh yeah I have it muted if I’m gonna be depressed it’s easier to pretend it’s not that bad for everyone.
You forgot the part when they joke about any person of the opposite gender being his new G.F to the point he has to isolate himself to it to stop
No unique experiences I see
Shhh, don't snitch on me
Or they expect you to just know things cause it’s instinctive.
Yea. this. Also, as a father of two boys.... there is no way anyone has ever said: "Boys are easier" with a straight face. I'm convinced that phrase came about because it started as a joke and someone took it as advice and nobody knows the difference now.
Both are difficult for different reasons. Raising a child is not a "either or", it's a "Alright, let's do this!" every. single. day.
And then turns out their son is trans so that caused even more damage to her mental health.
mfs when their son turns out to be a girl
Or school shooters or rapists, both of which probably started out that way.
I mean, yea they are easier. You just kick em out at 18 and act like they don't exist unless you want attention from them, or their kids. Like my mom
Mfs when their son becomes gay

Miércoles
Tidal waves
Ahh~
AY KARAMBA!
please be emotionally available towards your children regardless of gender
This.
You shouldn't obsess over your kids' lives, but you should also be there when they need you.
Ok I think this is less "I would not love my daughter" and more "a boy would be less likely to get SA'd on the bus at age 14"
I feel like your job as a parent isn’t to go “he probably won’t be SA’d on the bus” but rather tell him what to do if he finds himself in a bad situation
I second this yeah
I don’t think that the two are mutually exclusive, though. Regardless of how you prepare your children, there’s statistical evidence that a young woman is going to be at far greater risk than a young man.
This isn’t to say that an assault is anything but horrible if it happens to a child, but the difference in the likelihood is, statistically speaking, easier on the mind if it’s a boy.
I really don't think statistics matter, in this scenario.

…implying there are situations where SA is acceptable if it happens to non-children? I know it’s probably not what you meant but that struck me strangely.
Bro come on
This isn’t a productive area of conversation.
The rate is still 1 in 6 for boys so you should worry about your kid either way.
ya right, not that I agree with them lol that's just my takaway from OOP
Oh okay that’s good
This ☝️ The rates at which boys and young men are assaulted genuinely aren't even that much lower than that of women/girls. The 1 in 6 statistic likely doesn't even fully encapsulate the extent of it because that's just doing what they can to gather consistent evidence, in a society that historically has silenced all abuse survivors.
Am I the only one who always finds these statistics baffling high?

Because I find it very hard to believe there is this many people affected who are completely psychologically okay and never feel the need to address it with anyone.
A lot of people dont realize that what happened to them was sexual assault or abuse. And a lot of the statistics for women/young girls include specifically verbal sexual harassment, not just physical abuse, so cat calling from strangers (which is still awful and traumatic obviously) can sometimes be mixed in.
I really hope your son doesn't get SA'd on the bus at 14
Well most non-pedophiles hope kids don’t get sa-ed on buses. That’s not really something that needs to be said.
Oh you were using it as a way to guilt them for pointing out the millennia-long longstanding sexual oppression of women and young girls, and the fact that women are more likely to have to worry about it and modify their behavior to avoid being targets. Got it. Yeah you’re sick for that.
Guilt them into being a good mother*
Thats oddly specific,are you alright?
My son did an SA on the bus at 14. But it was against a Catholic priest, so it's fine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKxmYVbjl0I
Huh? That not what the parents are thinking. Because how would “You worry if she doesn’t date” apply to that at all?
You know that when a girl doesn't have any friends or dates because she's bullied, it leads her to be vulnerable and vulnerability is precisely what rapists like, also rape is a form of humiliation?
You are reaching or projecting or something. Who said anything about not having friends? Who said not dating because she’s bullied? The comic doesn’t say that at all.

Off topic but does everyone type "SA" because tiktok conditioned everyone into self-censorship or because tiktok conditioned everyone to be too impatient/apathetic to type out "sexual assault"
some probaby do.
I'm just lazy
Its better than pdf, unalived, or ahh as far as censorhip goes. Hell I'll even take it over just randomly starring a few letters in a way that you can still completely tell what word it is
Does everyone type "ADHD" because tiktok conditioned everyone into self-censorship or because tiktok conditioned everyone to be too attention deficit hyperactivity disordered to type out "attention deficit hyperactivity disorder"
Were you conditioned into simplistic writing by Reddit or are you too impatient/apathetic?
and before anyone goes after my comment’s inaccuracies: it’s cus it’s Reddit and I’m lazy
I usually type it as SA because I repeat the same phrase a lot, and I like to leave room for the distinction between sexual abuse and sexual assault. Sexual assault is always abuse, but sexual abuse isn't always physical assault.
the words itself trigger survivors of SA so it's just been common for decades to type SA instead. at least with people i know.
According that logic they should be worried because a boy is more probable to SA's someone? Considering they are already pinning the plight on the imaginary daughter "if she is pretty", "if she is not pretty", it doesn't seem they are in able to give good values to that boy about treating women as people.

With boys you just have to worry about him jumping in front of the bus. 1 in 1,000 teenage boys end up like that.
You’re assuming this inherently comes with emotional intelligence. No. They (rightfully) worry about their daughter being likely to encounter sa and harassment for her looks (good or ugly) and they won’t explain to her what to watch out for, or how to deal with the painful feelings of being seen as an object.
The same parents too immature to deeply connect with a son will just say things like “you can’t wear that because people will think you’re a hooker” or “close your legs when sitting that’s disgusting and men are staring at you” or “why didn’t you fight back enough when a grown man groped you as a kid, did you like it or something?”
Yeah these kinda parents think daughters are too much to care for and sons are too easy to handle. Like in the extreme ends of the spectrum.
If they have a son they'll neglect him thinking "he will handle himself", which leads to emotional problems in adult life.

These kinda parents, who want kids but don't want to put efforts into raising them, are the reason all these problems between men n women exist.
They are? Read literally any of their other panels and its clear they love their son very much and look after him
I think they mean more about the comment of having the daughter.
So... you're overprotective of your daughter because you see her as frail and more vulnerable, but not emotionally available to your son because you see him as stronger and requiring less emotional availability.
That's a great way to get a son that either hates you or hates women, or a daughter that hates you and goes behind your back to do dangerous stuff.
That's how a lot of, if not most men are raised tbh. The daughter thing in my anecdotal experience is either very extreme or not present.
From what I’ve seen of these guys they are insufferable
the best part is she pays someone to draw these and she just writes the shitty awful dialogue
Yikes
Now that I know this, I imagine the "blue haired liberal" character is the illustrator's self insert.
No, the main character of these comic is always the black haired mom. This is not VOLUNTARILY bad, the black haired woman is supposed to be the author.
They said illustrator not author
Omfg
I mean... what's the problem there, exactly?
The artist is credited and gets paid.
At least it's not generative AI.
Edit: the problem is with the content, not with them collaborating with someone else to make the comic
just that she felt her ideas were so fantastic that she had to pay someone to draw them so she could post, so yeah, the content essentially. the art is fine.
I thought we liked paying artists instead of using ai
The characters or the authors
Both they’re based on the authors
It looks like the author straw-maning or at best, sharing and uncomfortable interaction. Edit: didn't know the writer, but how do you make yourself sound like the bad guy in your own comic, yikes
Nope. The Pair are a representation of the Author and her husband.
😬
I’d guess straw manning
Nope. The Pair are a representation of the Author and her husband.
Edit: replied to the wrong comment.
wait does that mean the couple is somehow meant to be in the right here
How are you gonna say no and then basically repeat exactly what they said
I think they meant only the wife was the author, not the husband. I still had to reread it a couple of times lmao
Oops. Meant to reply to a different comment.
are they the prototypical quirk chungus?
Yeah but that’s not the only annoying parts look at other comments for more
When I'm on a being a insufferable human being and my oponent is a r/comics self-insert artist...
And even if you win, the true final boss is on Patreon.🔞
The wild thing is she isn’t even the illustrator. She’s admitted this often.
She apparently storyboards these comics and then has a third party actually illustrate them. Joy Lin—the self insert—refers to herself as a “writer” for this.
At least Hot Blind Wife guy draws his own shit.
This is exactly why I have this user muted.
You should probably care about your childs well being no matter what
Horrible and unfortunately pervasive attitude.
Alloy sexualizing her son firstly, secondly neglects completely his emotional and psychological state. Mother of the century, I won't wish mother like this even to my nemesis. Like "It's just a cute web comic", but I'm sure Alloy's son will be a main character in some true crime podcast 20-30 years later
God I hate this mindset so fucking much
wow can we please someday stop trivializing the negative aspects of the male experience
I might be wrong because it's the first comic I see from that author, but I feel like we're supposed to be the person on the right side and the comic is basically to say "that thing is bothering me so much, but society deems it normal so I'm not allowed to call them out, even if I try to explain it in the nicest way, I'll be socially rejected"
the couple's wife(?) is the author, so sadly no.
yikes
I can't tell if this is meant to be satirical or not. Please tell me this is satire.
I’m sorry, friend…
the mother is the author’s self insert. I’m sorry.
And then he either becomes a depressed loner who has a hard time communicating his feelings or an angry incel who was never taught boundaries. Yay.
People like this exist…in real life. Life sucks.
If I ever have a daughter, I'll just tell her to not be a nazi then have fun mining on hoxxes
Gross
with a Steve Harwell it's like, "Hey now, you're an all-star, get your game on, go play"
Wow that is a lot worse than I thought it would be
You would be surprises about how many people think like this nowadays...
This is one of the biggest pieces of dog excrements I ever saw
I thought this would be something about transgenderism based on the blue hair, this is so much worse.
Admittedly this does feel like a joke that's a lil out of context
Yeesh
Ooooof
Ugh, I hate this on so many levels.
Yea…not funny. I dont get it.
Yeah that's what my parents say quite often... I'm not even a boy so it hurts 10 times more
When you're in a shit take competition and this bitch is your opponent:
Did they get lazy in the last comic? Why did the quality drop down so much
'Boys are easier' people when their boy is actually a girl
This is worse than I expected.
Honestly, it's not the worst I've seen. With zero knowledge about the author you can at least try to assume this is a lighthearted joke.
Surprise!!!! She's a daughter all along
In my experience, many parents consider the "don't be an asshole" part to be optional
God these drawings are bad, what even happened to their eyes in panel 4
/r/AreTheStraightsOK
Good points
Watch this comment section get turned into parental advice. (Which is hopefully good and people might learn something)
This is reddit. It will be horrible and most people giving advice will not be parents.
Oh yeah i forgot that reddit is a controlled dumpster fire 😭
As a college student who can’t care enough to take care of himself and hasn’t had a drop of romantic nor nurturing experience, I recommend communicating with your child. Lots of parents have disciplined their children for misbehaving, and it’s usually that discipline that stops them from doing it again. But the explanation for why it is bad still needs to be told. “Because I said so” or “father/mother knows best” or whatever doesn’t explain it. Don’t look down on a child just because their mind hasn’t been nurtured as much as yours. They are capable of learning, thinking, and maturing even at young ages we might not expect.
Also, do not shy away from or avoid topics they’re not old enough to know yet. Parents eventually have to give their child “the talk,” but they have to be old enough physically and mentally to process this period of change that is puberty and/or adolescence. Sometimes, a child might ask such a question like “where do babies come from” or something either tamer or more eyebrow raising in comparison.
The thing is, if you refuse to answer the child, they might try to get their answers from somewhere else. If they remember the question, they’ll remember you haven’t given them an understandable answer. However, the thing to know is that they still might not be of age to know yet.
In this situation, “I’ll tell you when you’re older” is probably the best call, but you’ll also need to explain why if they’re still unsatisfied. Don’t be condescending, but remind them that they’re still growing up and there’s an order in things they learn. A bad and/or mistimed introduction to the darker things in life can stunt their mental growth and could make them commit actions they’ll come to regret.
In short, communicate with your child. Do not underestimate their learning capacity. But remember their age and consider what is and isn’t appropriate for that age. And if they try to reach outside to the things they’re not supposed to know yet, don’t hide it, but rather give them motivation to stay away from it until they’re ready to know. Convince them that it’s for the best. If the parent knows best, let the child learn why that’s for the best.
DISCLAIMER: This is all just my opinion and does not come from any experience whatsoever. This is simply how I believe I should raise a kid if I ever have one.
I agree a lot with this and imo this is a good Piece of advice.
Also goodluck for college!! I'm also sorta in the same place in life as you lol
Thanks, you too. I hope you’re not relating to the “not taking care of myself” part, but if you are, then best of luck to the both of us in regaining motivation.
Controlled! /s
Most people mistake children chewing on stuff as "Teething." This is s misconception.
Your child is likely a nicotine dependent person, either trying to find the nearist cigarette or simulate chewing tobacco. If you see your child do this, remember to give them the nicotine products they crave. The need them to survive.

My son (1-1/2) called me (35m) a crumb bum and my beautiful wife (18f) a doody head. Are we overreacting to cut all contact?
Love to ask the nearest 17 year old NEET for parental advice
Advice from a non-parent: feed your kids. They need food. Learned that the hard way.
Ah, so you weren't always a non-parent?
Indeed, I was once a non non-parent
Actually it just turned into gender wars again.
Welcome to mainstream Reddit
Misogynistic content: people criticise the misogyny. Everyone agrees.
Misandric content: clowns camp in the comments to dismiss that men can have negative experiences too and twist it into misogyny instead. Don't dismiss your boy growing up because... he will turn into bully sexual offender, as all men are, you know.
Femcels, those clowns are called femcels

Way better than the OG (not the anti meme just in case)
The community has decided that this IS an antimeme!
I hate the author so much lmfao. Blocked her everywhere
why? genuinely asking because ive never seen this author before
Her comics are unfunny and she seems like she hates her husband and kid
I'm just judging by the original cómic, they're misoginystic in simple words, and probably will neglect their baby for being a boy so yeah, fuck them
yeah she and her stupid ass husband are cringe
ONLY ONE COMMENT THREAD?! Hah make that 2!
Edit: there’s 3 now!
Edit2: 6 threads now and one modmail saying it is antimony! (Anti meme cause wtf is antimony)
I have OCs named Joy and Alloy, those words are very ordinary and normal, but I'm amused both are names of the author and I don't like it
I think alloy is a combination of the author and her husbands name
Good observation
Ack
It does happens, most parents are understanding of what's happening and tell you the totally innocent word that mispronounced sounded really bad.
Nice
