Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
Web of links
Reminds me of a story. Four scientists, all male, on an expedition in Antarctica, far from any other human being. They set up camp, establish the data link to sync their email, and one of them gets an email spam of the sort "hot women in your area". The next human female was several hundred kilometers away...
I wholeheartedly refute the assertion this comic makes that the word 'lock' is onomatopoeic.
i think lock is an onomatopoeia and I vote
if you want to procreate find a woman if you want loyalty get a horse if you want loyalty and love get a dog.
Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Honestly I don't see what makes chasing after women so special, you men have better things to do in your lives.
So go out there & enjoy your hobbies. Stop wasting your time with this nonsense & trust me; you men will still be hated but at least you'll be educated.
Chasing is only fun for predators. That's why it's such a frustrating and unfulfilling experience for the majority of men.
Predators like you.
You are the epitome of "Look ladies, I'm your one true good man" energy.
UPDATE: Ooof a quick dislike huh, maybe I touched a nerve
spoken like a fat lesbian with 20 cats
Yeah, I know. I've been called a rapist for refusing to have sex with women several times. Because that's what predators do.
Chasing is fun, if you do it right.
Go out, learn some new hobbies, try new things. Make a point to at least try some things you don't like. Make new friends, and you'll probably find someone who is equally happy to find you. The chase can be fun, but don't chase a person, chase happiness, run with the pack, and find the one who is running with you.
Sharing hobbies is not what I would call chasing, that's just basic social skills. Chasing is pretty much all the pick-up artist stuff. But honestly, I find people of today extremely boring, especially young people. The most complex hobby they have is doing workout to look fit and even that is done on a very superficial level. Nobody makes art anymore or is into philosophy or psychology. It's all just about consuming memes and TikTok slop or pretending to be creative by using AI or joining the current virtue signaling/slacktivism hypetrain on social media. That's why I prefer to talk to older people, you can sit down with them in a café and talk for hours about plenty of topics without ever looking at a smartphone. But it's not easy to find them, they don't go out much either for similar reasons. Society has changed a lot in the last decades and all I can do is to accept that and cherish those rare occasions.
New generations aren't required to appreciate the culture of older generations.
Frankly, I think the half-perm half macklemore high sided buzzcut fuccboi look is dumb, and it makes people look like pomped up poodles, but they aren't getting those haircuts to be attractive to millennials. I imagine this is what my parents thought when every guy in my generation had spiked hair with bleached tips... So let them be alien to you, it's totally normal. You don't have to understand, but you should give them space to be themselves.
We didn't have much better haircuts back then either. But we had more diversity. This is also one of those things I miss, the countless subcultures which led to interesting social dynamics. When was the last time you saw punks and hip hop enjoyers partying together in a park?
I'm not trying to take space away from young people by any means. I actually tried the opposite. It didn't work and I moved on.
When was the last time you saw punks and hip hop enjoyers partying together in a park?
Never, but that's because I spent most of my youth playing video games, or running around in the woods hitting my siblings with sticks.
or is into philosophy or psychology
That makes people fun?

I think you should take a look at yourself before you call a generation that is experiencing the highest cost of living in modern history, boring.
That makes people fun?
Yes, talking to people about something deeper than "lol, look at this meme" is fun.
I think you should take a look at yourself before you call a generation that is experiencing the highest cost of living in modern history, boring.
WTF does one have to do with the other...? Are you suggesting that people have zero interests outside of social media because of high cost of living?
You do realise that libraries are free? That getting a used guitar will cost you all of $50? That getting a pencil and a notebook to start drawing will be, what, $5? Oh yeah, you can even get a pencil for free at an Ikea.
I can absolutely confirm you youngsters are boring you're boring in your music you're boring in the films you watch you're boring in your beliefs and attitudes that all have to be cookie cutter identical to each other or you start calling each other fascists and Nazis. you all scream for diversity while stamping it out with your military surplus jack boots
Computers and music instruments are ridiculously cheap compared to the eighties and nineties. I had to build stuff with broken parts I found in trash (like everybody else who wasn't rich so the majority of users) and still managed to make much better music with all that Frankenstein equipment than the average young AI slop "artist" of today. And you're also proving my point regarding philosophy and psychology or anything else that needs more than a few seconds to process. Fits perfectly with studies about declining attention spans.
This is hilarious because women are purchasing concert tickets of a savage woman beater, Chris Brown, until they're sold out. He has a sold out show in Toronto tonight.
I guess if you can dance, sing, and look good, women will let you beat other women while they buy tickets to your show.
Can I share this in !Womensstuff@piefed.blahaj.zone or !witchesvspatriarchy@lemmy.ca
Of course. It's not mine, cross post/share away!
Awesome thanks 😊
Sure, why not?
Honestly so happy I’m married, I’m sorry for all of y’all. Dystopian times.
But hey to add my two cents: I think that fear is marketable, so women are over fed on paranoia.
At the same time, porn and propaganda have put bad expectations in some percentile of dumb men.
Both sexes are generally out of social practice, and societal trust is at an all time low. Most people are nice, but most people are also awkward.
So get out there and meet some people, don’t even do so romantically, just go learn how to interact with people, form some friendships.

This is the case with literally everything.
Used to hear about "no-go zones" in Stockholm in my local news a lot, areas where even the Swedish police were afraid to go in to. Then a friend of mine moved to Stockholm and started going to "the worst no-go zone" every weekend to get fresh produce. The only time he felt in danger was when he stumbled upon a drunk countryman.
Going out nowadays doesn't work anymore. Things have changed dramatically in the last few decades.
Well what defines going out? There are plenty of board game meet ups, even if you don’t especially like board games I would posit that it’s not an objectively negative experience; so if you must hold you nose and go anyway, do so.
Secondly, although this is coming from my experience in America, so your millage may vary, there’s tons of outdoor activities and groups: go for a hike, go backpacking.
You don’t need special equipment, you don’t need to buy anything. Just a water bottle, backpack, tent/tarp, and some non perishable foods and you’re good to go.
It’s true that the convenient third places of yesterday have seemingly vanished; but people are still out there.
Going out to talk with people is now impossible because everyone busy for themselves .
