    This misses one of the classic “FeMinIsT AgEnDaS”, censoring all of the porn so that nobody can jack off.

    It’s just now hitting me, the reason they (faux feminists) target that issue is to create a large faction of frustrated men that hate feminism, hence creating more class warfare.

    I don’t know how many Hark, A Vagrant strips featured the Straw Feminists, but here’s their introduction, I believe.

    Edit: The dangerous time-suck rabbit-hole-o-matic website, TVTropes, has a page for “Straw Feminist,” which links to Hark, A Vagrant.

      It’s a bra for preteens without boobs to get used to wearing a bra. Although I’m sure they’re a thing partially due to peer pressure (not wanting to seem less developed than the other girls).

          That’s a separate product called a sports bra, in case you weren’t aware of the term.

            Yup, aware of those which is why I assumed it to be about a sport bra. People use alternative words/terms instead of a strict language all the time so I fell victim to my own ignorance. xd

          It’s partly peer pressure, but also a modesty thing, since nipples suddenly become demonized at a certain age and it’s no longer seen as socially acceptable for developing girls to wear a plain white tshirt without a bra.

          Less of a thing in mainland Europe btw, I remember visiting my cousin for a beach trip as teens and was culture shocked that she and most other people our age would swim topless regardless of gender.

              The thing you didn’t understand is that people who don’t understand what you meant are trying to find the referenced comic in order to understand it. They don’t know what they are looking for and lemmy is pretty weird when it comes to searching for users apparently.

              Now i actually knew your guide required you to sort by “new” and already had an idea which comic you meant.

              You are correct in what you initially said but next time i recommend placing a link rather then giving people a map and then get defensive when people are getting lost.

              For every else:

              THEY MEANT THIS COMIC:

              You’re assuming we all know and see what you see and that anyone asking is asking in bad faith.

              I wager that mindset causes more arguments then it protects you from.

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

Rules
  1. 😇 Be Nice!

    • Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
  2. 🏘️ Community Standards

    • Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
    • Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
    • Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
    • Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
  3. 🧬 Keep it Real

    • Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
  4. 📽️ Credit Where Credit is Due

    • Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
    • Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
  5. 📋 Post Formatting

    • Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author’s website.
    • Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
    • When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
      ✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
      ❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
  6. 📬 Post Frequency/SPAM

    • Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author’s comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.
  7. 🏴‍☠️ Internationalization (i18n)

    • Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
      Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
  8. 🍿 Moderation

    • We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
    • When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Web Accessibility

Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.

When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you’re posting:

  • Markdown - Links / Images

Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what’s going on. (example)
