It is very hard to take your criticism about how the women of this comic dress seriously when the male title character has spent most of this arc shirtless.
OH, this again. When a woman presents a problem to the average man, that man will offer solutions. Not because that man is uncaring or unsympathetic. In fact, a man who offers solutions to problems is the exact opposite. Taking it back to today’s strip, Sophie has already expressed herself; she has been moping around the house for the past week and trying to gleam deep meaning from a meaningless message. Clearly, she had a problem and had no solutions. Tommy offered a solution to Sophie’s problem, not an audience.
Your response to “whines” is brilliant. Mind if I use it in the future?
