No it's not. if we're talking about the fake circumstance of the comic as being a reality, then shouldn't it be up to the woman to say that line of conversation or action is uncomfortable? We're all individuals right?
And because one thing is offensive for one person, what makes it offensive for the next person. Let people say for themselves what offends them
No. That's not the only reason. I'll break it down:
So you have a folding, pocket wallet. Not necessarily a thing that shows gender, but the 2 condom imprints is something to take note of. On top of that, a trans ftm would still have little need for a condom. If they want to be tom-boyish, then they might carry a condom, but it also depends on their stage of transition if they choose to have a transition that way or not. A mtf trans might need a condom, but not stereotyped in carrying them in their fold wallet. A lesbian might carry a fold wallet, but why do they need a condom? A man (straight or gay) will have the most need for a condom in their fold wallet making them the most logical response to be a naturally born male carrying a condom. So sticking with the evidence of a condom in the wallet, I can begin to break everything else down.
The person I originally spoke with is young and had an appreciation for 80s tech (that explains their watch) carrying a hankerchief is weird, but I'll assume that makes them modern hipsters. Carrying a pen with you everywhere? Well that just makes you a nerd and almost (potentially) deliberately going against the ebb and flow. Granted i don't believe there's anything wrong with that, but all signs point towards that the person I was originally speaking with is either a naturally born male that is a hipster and nerd (which tells me a lot about their idea of feminism) or a previously transitioned male (which, and this is IMO, you've lost your right to speak for the gender you transitioned from and should begin representing the gender you have or are transitioning to). I can keep going if you're interested
Haha. Ok. Why do you carry a condom in your wallet? That's pretty damning evidence that you're male. And you weren't being silly. You were commentating, and now you're back-peddling to say it was fun. I'm not refuting that you want or are a feminist ally, but the whole point is to let the individual woman be offended. When your comment attempted to speak for the whole of women. It's not necessarily your intention I'm arguing, but the action of saying that women in general should be offended at this comic. That is at least the perception you gave. And you can keep saying you were trying to be cheeky, but you yourself also said that context is difficult in these situations
Lol. I get what you mean by "vaguely masculine."" My original argument can easily be put into the idea of individual persons going beyond the sexes. Speak for yourself as an individual. Let other people speak for themselves as individuals. Now, this is the part where you point out my hypocrisy, and to be honest, it's deserved. However, you should let people who are going to accept it or reject it speak for themselves. We are supposed to live with the idea that OUR voices matter, so speaking for another person completely contradicts the idea of individuality
What level of chemistry? How I explained it is exactly what's needed. Stop overthinking the obvious. And what i explained is cheaper than a car. Like i don't want to be disrespectful, but did you start to argue without thinking your argument all the way through? And I don't know if you know or not, but the combination of ammonia and bleach makes this little known biological agent called mustard gas
Draino and aluminum foil can make an explosive that sprays hot acid. A styrofoam cup, a paper clip, and an outlet can start an untraceable fire. High proof liquor, a bottle, and a rag can make a molotov. Guns. Carbon Monoxide, Hydrogen Sulfide, a mixture of ammonia and bleach, magnesium and oxygen.
There's plenty of ways to mass murder without a car
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT CONDONE ANY OF THESE METHODS. MURDER IS TAKING A PERSON'S LIFE AND SENDING A CRIPPLING SHOCKWAVE TO INNOCENT PEOPLE THAT DON'T DESERVE YOUR RAGE
Well, I mean.... to be fair, no healthcare is free. It's just paid for (in many cases) by taxes. That's the thing that isn't ever talked about. Taxes. The US has some of the lowest regional, state, and national taxes because there's no Healthcare taxes besides Medicare and social security. And even those are constantly being threatened to be deducted from.
If US had a set subscription for guaranteed universal Healthcare before the gov't could get their grubby hands on it, then US Healthcare could almost be something to brag about
