Downvoted for improper use of quotation. The comic is successful because it effectively communicates its message by cleverly juxtaposing two panels that are identical except for the implied sex of one character, and one word in the other character’s line. To simply quote the second panel out of context doesn’t make any sense at all. Linking to the comic does not redeem this mistake—quotes are supposed to be able to stand on their own. Comics are a visual medium; sometimes, like in this case, they simply aren’t quotable.
